Variety traits

1000-grain weight of peas

Pisum sativum L.

An agronomic indicator characterizing the grain size and seed value of peas, which is critical for calculating seeding rates and assessing yield potential. Values vary depending on the type of crop use: from 100–200 g for vegetable varieties to 220–350 g for grain varieties.

In the reference 165 varieties crop Pea, where this is mentioned in the description.

The 1000-grain weight is a key trait that determines pea agronomics. For vegetable varieties intended for canning, seeds weighing less than 200 g are preferred, while varieties for freezing can reach 220 g. Grain pea varieties are characterized by larger seeds in the range of 220–250 g, in some cases reaching 350 g.

This indicator serves as the primary tool for calculating the seeding rate in kilograms per hectare. Large seeds with a higher mass possess an increased supply of nutrients, which ensures better root system development and initial growth vigor. A sharp decrease in seed mass relative to the varietal standard indicates an adverse impact of external factors, such as drought, diseases, or nutrient deficiency.
