BRUTUS is a green-seeded, semi-leafless protein pea developed by DLF-TRIFOLIUM. It has a sable grain yield with brilliant protein yield.

 

Very High Protein Yield

BRUTUS delivers up to 23,5% protein with a very high protein quality as well as good protein palatability, which is important for feeding purposes. Combined with a medium to low seed weight the use of Brutus turns out to be very economic.

 

Exceptional Resistance to Lodging and Easiness of Harvest

BRUTUS is characterized in long stems with only a very little risk of lodging and in having an outstanding crop height at harvest time. This together with an even ripening behaviour makes the variety really easy to harvest.
