Venzel

Efficient Vegetable Pea Cultivation

The «Venzel» pea, developed by the Russian breeding company «Evro-Semena» (led by breeder Yury Dmitrievich Tarasov), is a reliable choice for professional and home vegetable growers. As a non-hybrid vegetable pea variety, it offers consistent traits that have secured its place in the brand's catalog.

Key Specifications

The variety is categorized as mid-early, with a growing season ranging from 60 to 70 days. This makes it a flexible option for mid-season harvest planning. The primary physical characteristics include:

• Type: Vegetable pea.
• Pod Shape: Acute/Sharp.
• Dimensions: Pod length is 7–8 cm.

The specific acute shape of the pod makes the harvesting process more efficient, whether done manually or mechanically on a smaller scale. These dimensions meet common market standards for both fresh market demand and canning purposes.

Market Positioning and Cultivation

«Evro-Semena» positions «Venzel» as a hardy variety that performs consistently across various soil types. Because it is a true-to-type variety, it maintains stability, which is highly valued by growers looking for reliable results year after year. The development of this variety reflects a focus on productivity, ensuring that the plant allocates energy effectively to pod development during its 10-week growth cycle.

Optimal cultivation requires standard pea maintenance, including regular moisture management during the blooming and pod-filling stages. Given the 60–70 day maturation period, «Venzel» is excellent for successional planting. Its reputation is built on straightforward agricultural requirements and predictable, high-quality yields, making it a staple for those who prefer proven, classic seed varieties over experimental hybrids.
