Pigeon Pea: Georgia-1
(Cajanus cajan)

Pigeon pea is a nitrogen-fixing, perennial shrub, growing to 4 m in height, that produces green or dry seed in seasonally dry climates. Pigeon peas are adaptable to many soil types and are used as a dry pea, green vegetable, fodder, fuelwood, green manure or cover crop.

A day neutral, short duration pigeon pea developed by Dr. Sharad Phatak at the University of Georgia. Semi-determinate growth is more conducive for mechanical harvesting. Grown specifically for pod production rather than vegetative growth. 65-100 days to flowering. Average plant height is 1.6m (65 in).
