Most widespread winter peas variety in Croatia

• Medium-late variety
• Most widely grown winter field peas cultivar in Croatia
• Used in coarse fodder production
• Ensures economically profitable and environmentally friendly production
• A prized ruminant feed due to its high nutritional value, in particular for dairy cows, in which its consummation increases milk production and quality
• Sown together with a winter cereal, usually Galloper, a higher-habitus wheat variety
• Rapid growth
• Modest crop management requirements, with minimal investments in protection and fertilisation
• Excellent resistance to low temperatures
• Great pre-crop: increases soil nitrogen content and curbs weeds
• Vacates the field early, allowing for two harvests a year in the same field. After removal, we recommend stubble sowing of early OS corn hybrids such as OS 3114
• Robust stem, height 135-185 cm
• When harvested in the blooming and first pod formation phase (15-25 May), yields 50-60 t/ha of green matter, or more than 25 t/ha of haylage and more than 10 t/ha of hay
