Hungarian vetch DĚTENICKÁ PANONSKÁ

An early/mid-early, very winter hardy vetch with high grain and forage yield

• High grain yield
• High forage yield
• Very high frost resistance
• High plasticity
• Long stem
• Good ingredient of mixtures

• High yields of green mass and seeds
• Stems – leafy, hairy, semi-erect
• Long stems (120-150 cm)
• Resistance to lodging – low
• Very resistant to frost
• Very tolerant to drought
• Flowers – white creamy
• Seeds – black-brown marble, irregular ball or square shape
• The mass of 1000 grains – about 35 g
• Seed yield – 0.5-1.0 t/ha
• Valuable fodder crop
• Excellent forage grown without nitrogen fertilization
• An excellent component of mixtures
• Sown with supporting crops (rye, wheat)
• Could be grown alone also
• Very suitable for mixtures
• They are similar to rye vetch in their characteristics and cultivation
• Winter vetches can be grown as summer cover crops by sowing them in late July-early August, and the green crop can be harvested right up until frost.
• After harvesting the green mass in the spring, you can have time to sow summer cereals, buckwheat, and plant potatoes
• Enriches the soil with nitrogen
• Used for green manure or for the production of protein-rich fodder
• It germinates and develops quickly, so it suppresses weeds and improves soil structure
• Suitable for lighter and more acidic soils
