3 adapted varieties
In Corse, the local agronomic conditions (Cfa — humid subtropical climate, 2268 growing degree days, loam soil at pH 7, 347 frost-free days) allow pea cultivation.
Favorable growing period: March to November.
Recommended varieties: LS Kalina, LS Envergure, LS Paprika
Sufficient growing degree days (2268 GDD) to complete the pea cycle.
Balanced summer water budget — no significant water stress.
Long frost-free season (347 days), allowing broad crop cycles.
Favorable growing period: March to November.
Neutral pH (7), suitable for most crops.
High-yield spring protein pea with yellow grain, easy harvesting and strong adaptability to all pea markets.
Very early green spring protein pea with high yield potential, vegetative plant structure and easy harvesting.
Early spring protein pea with small yellow grain, excellent consistency and strong yield potential.
Pea finds interesting conditions in Corsica for autumn or late-winter sowing, taking advantage of mild temperatures (winter min 9°C) before summer heat. 2,268 GDD comfortably cover the cycle. LS Envergure, LS Kalina and LS Paprika can fit into short rotations producing before the dry summer, on irrigated eastern plains or cool mid-altitude soils.
The varieties recommended above are pre-selected based on local climate, soil and disease pressure. Top picks combine adapted maturity, yield stability and the specific disease tolerances needed in Corse.
The favorable sowing window is typically from March to November. Exact timing depends on soil temperature (>10°C at 5 cm), weather forecast and your local agronomist's advice.
Yields depend on variety, agronomic management and the season. Under typical Corse conditions with good practices, our adapted varieties target stable, competitive commercial yields. Precise ranges are available on request.
