Peas are a very important crop to growers as they provide a valuable spring sown break crop which supplies product for processing, seed, food and feed uses.
This publication is intended to combine information collected through the project, plus a signifi cant amount of previous research data and crop management information into a document providing information to farmers and industry that will result in the production of high yields of high quality peas. The guide is easy to follow and has a number of photos and fi gures designed to help readers easily understand the key points and messages.

Pulses are leguminous crops harvested for dry protein-rich seed, with peas (pisum sativum) and beans (vicia faba) being the major crops in the UK.
The major commodity crops in the UK are wheat, barley, oilseed rape, field beans, sugar beet and potatoes, but around half of agricultural land grows grass.
Share information, knowledge, resources and experience on how we can improve crop perfomance (yield, quality and profitability) whilst reducing reliance on input, reducing impacts and improving environmental performance.
