Bag of 80 grams
This variety, ideal for poor, chalky soils, takes its name from the caviar-like appearance of its seeds. It produces small, round, shiny black lentils that are particularly rich in protein.
Drought-resistant, this legume can be grown both for its edible seeds and as a green manure, generally in association with a cereal.
Sow directly in warm soil, every 8 to 10 cm, in rows 40 cm apart. Alternatively, sow in stacks of 5 to 6 seeds, 20 cm apart, in rows 40 cm apart. Bind the clumps when they reach 15 cm in height, and rake them in with small branches or on a wire stretched 20-25 cm high. For use as green manure, broadcast at a rate of 3 to 8 g per square metre. High-density sowing has a positive effect on yield.
