Puls'Eat® offers healthy and sustainable ingredients for the food of tomorrow, focusing on legumes with a unique expertise in faba bean fermentation.
The French faba bean industry : a sector for the future
Legumes play a crucial role in sustainable agriculture and food systems. Faba beans (Vicia faba) are no exception: their cultivation reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, as they do not require nitrogen inputs due to their symbiosis with soil bacteria that allow them to utilize atmospheric nitrogen.
Spring faba beans, used for human consumption, are grown in the Northwest and East of France.
Currently, 26 varieties are listed in the French Catalog, with ongoing varietal selection: a key factor in improving crop performance as well as the composition of the seeds (reducing antinutritional factors and compounds responsible for green notes).
