Vigna vegetable Fakir – an early-maturing variety with ripening within 50‑55 days and high yield potential. The plant is powerful, climbing, reaching heights from 200 to 300 cm, making it suitable for both open ground and film-covered greenhouses on supports.
Fakir beans differ with a narrow, straight shape with a pointed tip, 50‑70 cm long. They are green and resemble spaghetti, giving dishes an original look. Seeds are oval, small, and black; in some descriptions, elongated curved seeds are mentioned, but the general characteristic remains unchanged.
The variety ensures a prolonged fruiting period: up to 5 kg of tender young beans can be harvested from one bush per season. High protein and microelement content makes it a valuable product in the diet. Fakir beans are used in cooking in many forms – boiled, fried, canned, frozen to sprouted.
The product's benefits are confirmed: it normalizes digestion and kidney function, and is indispensable in diets for obesity due to low caloric content and high nutritional value.
