Legumes

Discover expert guides and crop solutions for growing peas and beans in the UK. Learn best practices for weed, pest, and disease control.

Legumes are an important part of UK agriculture. They can be split into two types: combinable legumes (such as combining peas / field beans) and vegetable legumes (such as vining peas, green beans and broad beans).

Whilst beans are seen as a lower input crop, there are still pest, weed and disease challenges. BASF offers a range of solutions to support efficient pea and bean production, including options for weed and disease control.

Signum® provides excellent, long-lasting disease control and physiological benefits for an extremely wide range of vegetable, soft fruit and pulse crops.
