Pea Tip

Austrian breeding for stable yields

The «Тип» pea variety by Saatbau is a product of synergy between Austrian technology and years of development by Czech breeders (Selgen a.s.). In modern farming, where the cost of errors during harvest is high, this semi-leafless (tendril-type) variety offers farmers a level of efficiency inaccessible to older leaf-type varieties.

Technological Advantages

The key feature of «Тип» is its morphology. The semi-leafless structure forms a strong canopy of interconnected tendrils, providing excellent lodging resistance. This allows farmers to perform direct harvesting without the need for specialized equipment or excessive desiccation. With a thousand-grain weight of 220–240 grams, the crop shows high uniformity, which is critical for market presentation and downstream processing.

Phytosanitary Profile and Reliability

The variety stands out from its competitors due to its resistance profile. While many varieties suffer from powdery mildew and various types of rot, «Тип» demonstrates commendable resistance to Ascochyta blight and rust. Particular attention should be paid to its resistance to stem rot — a major risk factor reducing yield potential in high-moisture regions. A protein content of 24–26% makes it not only agronomically profitable but also a high-quality commodity for feed and food industries.

Who is this variety for?

«Тип» is perfectly suited for operations focusing on intensive agriculture. The 90–100 day growing season allows for flexibility in crop rotation, and its adaptability to soil types, provided basic management practices are followed, makes it a reliable investment. It is the choice for those seeking a balance between high yield performance and harvest efficiency.
