Veritable vegetables
According to experts, peas and beans will play a decisive role in future nutrition. This small but mighty duo are rich in proteins, easy to cultivate and harvest, filling and wholesome meat substitutes. Because legumes are multi-talents and their contribution as future nutriments of great importance, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) dedicated a whole year to them, declaring 2016 the “International Year of Pulses”. The objective of sensitising the public at large to the health and ecological benefits of legumes clearly bore fruits: “In the four years between 2013 and 2017, 27,058 new products containing pulses – peas and beans, soya and lupins – were launched onto the global market” according to the University of Hohenheim in Stuttgart, Germany. In other words, the bean is booming.
