Profile
FRIEDA is a real protein miracle. In contrast to soya, it has a significantly better climate adaptation, a lower heat requirement and can thus be grown on many sites. Due to its unique anthracnose tolerance, it provides farmers with high yield security. FRIEDA is suitable for animal feed; its use in human nutrition is still being tested.
Distribution in: AT, CH, DE, FR, NL, UK • Breeder: LLA Triesdorf
-
Branching type with low content of bitter substances
-
High protein yield for feed use
-
Also usable for human nutrition due to lower alkaloid content
-
Tolerance against anthracnose
-
FRIEDA is significantly more yield-safe than all previously approved varieties, as it is tolerant to anthracnose
-
Better yield potential, higher protein content with better space stability than blue lupins
-
Deep-rooted taproot and therefore very insensitive to summer dryness
-
Very good threshing ability due to homogenous grain/straw ripening and high core build-up

Locations
All soils except waterlogging
Special characteristics
Greater yield security through tolerance to anthracnose, the most important lupin disease, which can lead to a complete loss of yield.
Sowing
60 grains/m² for row distances of 12-25 cm
Sowing date
Mid of March - mid of April
Usage
High-quality protein feed for cattle feeding
