ALTAI UNIVERSAL

Technical Profile of the "Altayskiy Universalnyy" Pea Variety

The breeding development from FANTsA is aimed at agronomists working in regions with a moderate risk of soil-borne diseases. The primary architecture of the "Altayskiy Universalnyy" variety is designed to minimize crop losses through genetic resistance to pathogenic complexes.

Phytosanitary Stability as a Priority

A key feature of this germplasm is its high tolerance to root rots. In conditions of excessive moisture or crop rotation imbalances, this factor becomes decisive for maintaining plant density. Genetic protection allows for a reduction in pesticide load during seed treatment, shifting the focus to pest control rather than soil fungal infection management.

Morphology and Productivity

• Vegetation period: 70–80 days. This medium-early interval allows the crop to avoid critical July droughts in steppe zones.
• 1000-seed weight: 180–200 grams. Large seed size ensures a high yield of marketable product and excellent germination energy.
• Biochemical indicators: Protein content ranges from 24–26%, making the crop suitable for both the food market and high-quality feed production.

The medium height of the plants ensures operational efficiency during harvest: when following seeding rate recommendations, the variety forms a stand resistant to lodging, which minimizes header losses. The balance between early maturity and grain filling makes "Altayskiy Universalnyy" a stable tool in crop rotation for farms focused on securing a guaranteed pulse harvest.
