Legumes can play a significant role in the context of the climate crisis due to their unique characteristics including nitrogen-fixing root nodules and high levels of protein.
The cultivation and consumption of legumes offer multiple benefits that contribute to climate change mitigation, agricultural sustainability, and environmental stewardship.
Moderated by Prof. Dr. Svetlana Balešević Tubić and Lavdosh Ferruni, this free online event will explore some of the ways in which legumes can contribute to these goals.
