SV 0893 YUF is a vegetable pea characterized by excellent taste qualities and versatility in application. The peas have a dark green color, large, uniform, and very sweet grains that are juicy and tender. Due to simultaneous ripening, the first harvest can be conducted as early as 42-45 days after sowing, which allows the product to be used fresh, as well as for canning, drying, and freezing. A feature of the variety is its stem breakage resistance, which facilitates harvest collection and improves its quality.

For good germination, the optimal soil temperature is 4-5 °C, and the sowing depth is 3-5 cm depending on the soil type. An important stage of agronomy is timely weed removal, soil loosening, and moisture maintenance, especially during flowering and pod formation, when the plant is particularly in need of water.
