Protein-rich legume splits are becoming increasingly important in the food industry. They are suitable as a raw material for
Especially in the food sector, origin, quality, traceability and process reliability are crucial.
In animal feed, legumes offer an attractive plant-based protein source. Protein-rich splits can help to develop modern, regional and more sustainable feeding concepts.
Aquaculture is a particularly relevant field of the future for us. Faba beans and the protein-rich products derived from them offer potential as a plant-based alternative to imported protein sources in sustainable feeding concepts. The focus is on:
Depending on product quality, specification and further processing, legume products can also be of interest for other industrial applications. Purity, processability and a stable raw-material base are key.
Faba beans are more than a raw material. They combine agronomic benefits with growing market relevance:
Home-grown legumes strengthen European supply chains, improve traceability and reduce dependence on imported protein.
Faba beans contribute to a more diverse and resilient crop rotation and support sustainable farming systems.
As legumes, faba beans can fix nitrogen from the air, contributing to soil fertility and reducing the need for mineral fertiliser.
Whether faba beans, peas or other pulses – together we develop the right solution for your requirements.
