Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is the main feed grain legume in Europe, where it shows outstanding yield potential across climate-contrasting environments compared to other grain legumes. High protein and energy value for animal nutrition, and lack of anti-nutritional factors are important assets of this crop. Moreover, pea shows a remarkable flexibility of utilization, which makes it a valuable crop for animal feeding in the forms of grain, silage or hay.

Abstract

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is the main feed grain legume in Europe, where it shows outstanding yield potential across climate-contrasting environments compared to other grain legumes. High protein and energy value for animal nutrition, and lack of anti-nutritional factors are important assets of this crop. Moreover, pea shows a remarkable flexibility of utilization, which makes it a valuable crop for animal feeding in the forms of grain, silage or hay.
