Yield data for Tundra winter beans is shown below, compared with similar variety types
| TUNDRA | Bumble | Vespa | Honey | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yield (as % Control) | 94 | 104 | 111 | 94 |
Data from PGRO Descriptive List 2023. The control for yield is the mean of 4 & 5 year varieties (4.50t/ha). Yield differences of less than 8.0% are not statistically different. (1-9) A high rating indicates that the variety shows the character to a high degree. The scales of characters of winter beans do not necessarily correspond with those for spring beans. © PGRO 2022 23.11.2022
