It complements cereals perfectly for feeding poultry due to the high lysine content. White-flowering, light- hulled pea can be included up to 30% in poultry feed. Growers of field pea can sell their crops to compound feed producers. However, trading pea is not always straightforward and on-farm or local use generally increases the profitability of growing pea. For this on-farm use to be successful, the feed value must be determined for each farm-grown batch so that the feed mix can be optimised. Home-grown grain legumes are an important component of GMO-free feed rations and so benefit from premia for non-GM products.</p>\n\n<p>This note provides an insight into successful farm practices and feed rations with field peas in organic farming.</p>", "author": [ { "family": "Quendt, Ulrich" }, { "family": "Vogt-Kaute, Werner" } ], "version": "1", "type": "article", "id": "4518598" }
