Faba Bean and Pea Can Provide Late-Fall Forage Grazing without Affecting Maize Yield the Following Season

Agronomy, 2020
Faba bean (Vicia faba Roth) and pea (Pisum sativum L.) are grown worldwide as protein sources for food and feed and can be used as cover crops after wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, faba bean is underutilized in upper Midwest farming systems.

Replacement of soya bean meal with peas and faba beans in growing/finishing pig diets: effect on performance, carcass composition and nutrient excretion [PDF]

, 2015
There is now an increasing debate about the viability of using temperate-grown legumes in pig diets as a potential replacement for imported soya bean meal (SBM) and this is due to food security, sustainability and environmental concerns.

Single-Molecule Real-Time and Illumina-Based RNA Sequencing Data Identified Vernalization-Responsive Candidate Genes in Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.)

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the most widely grown cool season legume crops in the world. Winter faba bean normally has a vernalization requirement, which promotes an earlier flowering and pod setting than unvernalized plants.
