Description

Red Peas are annual legume plants (Fabaceae family) grown for their edible seeds and pods, with varieties like garden peas, snow peas, and snap peas. They are a cool-season crop, known for being a good source of protein, dietary fiber, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, K, and folate. Peas originate from the Middle East and are cultivated globally in fresh, frozen, and canned forms, with dry peas used for split peas.
