Eldorado

Pea variety El Dorado is a medium-height plant, 65 to 80 cm tall, with strong stems and high resistance to lodging, which facilitates harvesting. This variety is characterized by early or medium-early maturity: the period from germination to the first pods is 55 to 75 days, allowing fresh peas to be harvested at the beginning of summer. The plant is leafy and branched, flowering early and uniformly, forming pods even under unfavorable growing conditions, ensuring stable productivity in various agroclimatic regions.

The pods of El Dorado pea are large, 8 to 10 cm long, dark green, straight or slightly curved. Each pod contains 7 to 10 uniform, bright green, smooth peas with thin skin. The pea has an exceptionally sweet, tender, and juicy flavor, making it ideal for fresh consumption, as well as for culinary use, canning, freezing, and processing. The variety is intended for both fresh market and industrial use.

El Dorado demonstrates high resistance to common pea diseases, including powdery mildew, Fusarium wilt, and downy mildew, which contributes to obtaining a healthy and stable yield. The variety is produced by Syngenta in the Netherlands and is distinguished by high commercial quality, making it a profitable choice for gardeners and agricultural enterprises.
