Asana is a very early vegetable pea variety intended for fresh consumption and various processing methods, including freezing and canning. The maturity period is 57-58 days, allowing for a quick harvest. Plants reach a height of 65-75 cm, and medium-sized pods contain approximately 8 plump, round, dark green peas, giving the product an attractive appearance and high market quality.
The Asana variety exhibits high resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fop:1), significantly reducing disease risks and enhancing harvest reliability. Seeds are suitable for cultivation in open ground, particularly on light, fertile soils, expanding the variety of agronomic applications. The seeding rate is 240-300 kg per hectare, and green pea yields vary between 30 to 89 centners per hectare, indicating high productivity of the variety.
Due to its qualities and resistance, Asana pea is in demand among processors, as it retains its properties during freezing and canning. This makes it a versatile product suitable for both direct consumption and industrial processing, ensuring consistent quality and appealing appearance of the finished product.
