Varieties of vigna-adzuki, a new valuable legume crop for the Russian Far East
In the period from 2014 to 2021, about 120 samples of angular beans (vigna-adzuki) of various ecological and geographical origin (China, Japan, South Korea and the USA) were studied at the Primorsky Vegetable Experimental station - a branch of the FSBI FNCF. On their basis, during the selection process, Asia and Far Eastern varieties and promising samples (PIC 39-15, Prima) of this culture were created. According to the results of state variety tests, the Asia and Far Eastern varieties have been approved for use in the Far Eastern Federal District since 2020. Of these, the first grade is for universal use (horticultural and as a field crop), and the second is for horticultural use.
