In the strategy of preserving the country's food security, the production of pulses as an important protein raw material is taking on increasing importance. Peas occupy a leading position in the group of legumes due to their adaptability to the soil and climatic conditions of most growing regions, their versatile use and high productivity potential. Its grain is a source of protein, balanced in amino acid composition, vitamins, minerals and biologically active compounds, which play a significant role in improving human health. Due to its ability to symbiotically interact with gram-negative bacteria of the Rhizobium genus, its plants can fix sufficient amount of atmospheric nitrogen for their development under favorable conditions. This, in turn, helps to reduce production costs by decreasing the amount of mineral nitrogen fertilizers.
