Pigeon Pea Seeds

Kagezi Seeds offers premium, certified Pigeon Pea seeds adapted for high yield and excellent environmental stress tolerance. Pigeon Pea is a highly valued perennial legume in Zambia, recognized for its deep-rooting capacity, soil enrichment traits, and lucrative export opportunities in global agricultural markets.

Our Pigeon Pea seeds are multiplied under the guidance of the Ministry of Agriculture at our Chisamba production fields, and processed and packaged at our factory in Chongwe Silverest. Multiplication is verified and certified to prevent common bean seedborne diseases. Partnering with the Zambia Agriculture Research Institute (ZARI), we multiply MPPV varieties engineered for high biomass, grain yield, and adaptation to Zambian agro-ecological zones.
