Our goal is to boost the breeding of the major food and feed legume crops in Europe to support the EU Biodiversity and Farm to Fork strategies by making legume crops more competitive on European farms and in value chains. This will increase crop diversity and enable all the other benefits of legumes.Through six innovation communities (ICs), we will boost the breeding of soybean, lupins, pea, lentil, phaseolus beans, and clovers.
