  • Recommended for cultivation on all locations, also recommended for organic farming due to effective weed suppression and high standability.

ASTRONAUTE - Yield reliability thanks to plant health and adaptability.

ASTRONAUTE has been a constant in grain pea cultivation across Europe for more than a decade. Following its first registration in France in 2012, ASTRONAUTE has proven its outstanding environmental stability and suitability for all locations in many countries, what still makes it the largest grain pea variety in Europe today.

ASTRONAUTE combines its excellent yield safety at a very high grain and protein yield level with rapid youth development and weed suppression as well as good plant health, standability and threshability, which also makes this variety attractive for organic farming.
