Lentil productivity

Lens culinaris Medik.

Lentil productivity is defined as the sum of the structural elements of the plant, including seed mass, number of pods, number of seeds per pod, and 1000-seed weight.

In the reference 4 varieties crop Lentil, where this is mentioned in the description.

When evaluating seed productivity, key indicators include seed mass per plant, number of pods and seeds per plant, and 1000-seed weight. In breeding practice, to characterize the potential of genotypes, the number of pods per plant can reach 75, while the number of seeds can vary from 30 to over 100 depending on growing conditions and genotype.

Final crop productivity correlates directly with the number of pods and seed mass per plant. Important technological factors influencing the preservation of productivity during mechanized harvesting include the overall plant height (from 40 cm) and the height of the lowest pod attachment, which allows for minimizing harvest losses.
