Vegetable Pea Innovesa

Precision for Early Harvests

Innovesa, developed by Nunhems, is a high-performance vegetable pea variety engineered for growers who prioritize speed-to-market without compromising yield quality. Originating from Dutch breeding programs, this variety stands out in the early-season segment for its robust growth and consistent performance under the variable conditions of early spring.

Agronomic Performance

With a vegetation period of just 50–60 days, Innovesa provides a competitive advantage, allowing for efficient land use and secondary crop planting. It is categorized as a small-seeded pea type, noted for its uniform pod development containing 8–10 peas per pod. This density makes it a preferred choice for both the fresh market and high-quality industrial canning.

Resistance and Reliability

A major challenge for early-sown peas is soil-borne disease pressure, particularly Fusarium wilt. Through the expertise of Agro Seed Research (part of the Nunhems portfolio), Innovesa has been bred with strong genetic resistance to this pathogen. This resilience minimizes crop failure risks during the critical germination phase in cool, damp soils, ensuring a uniform stand and reduced reliance on soil-applied fungicides.
