Common Vetch: a drought tolerant, high protein neglected leguminous crop with potential as a sustainable food source

2020-02-12

Abstract excerpt

Global demand for protein is predicted to increase by 50% by 2050. To meet the increasing demand whilst ensuring sustainability, protein sources that generate low-greenhouse gas emissions are required and protein-rich legume seeds have the potential to make a significant contribution. Legumes like common vetch ( Vicia sativa ) that grow in marginal cropping zones and are drought tolerant and resilient to changeab...
