Double legumes, multiple benefits? Ecosystem service benefits from combined faba bean (Vicia faba L.) and pea (Pisum sativum L.) crop-mixtures (Ref: CTP-SAI-075)

NIAB Research

Increased domestic legume production can contribute to Net Zero targets in the agricultural sector via reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by offsetting the use of mineral fertiliser nitrogen (N) in the pea and bean crop, and for the following crop through biological nitrogen fixation (BNF).
