AAC Planet is a new high-yielding yellow pea that offers resistance to powdery mildew.
AAC Planet is a new high-yielding yellow pea that offers resistance to powdery mildew. Powdery mildew can blemish pods, cause the plant to ripen prematurely, and result in shrunken seed, leading to smaller yields and higher production costs for farmers choosing to attack the mildew with fungicides. That is bad news for field pea growers.
Planet was developed at AAFC Lacombe Research and Development Centre and is part of their focused program to breed superior field pea varieties with greater yield, disease resistance, environmental resilience, and protein content.
Planet Peas is a new yellow pea variety from SeedNet.
