Legumes

Short-cycle crops belonging to the Fabaceae or Leguminosae family, which are usually exploited in large extensions, where their grains with high protein content are commercialized. Generally for direct consumption (they do not go through agro-industrial processing). Their leaves are compound, with raceme flowers and their fruit is in the form of a pod.

Through their ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen and solubilize phosphorus, legumes naturally contribute to enriching soils with nutrients, increasing crop yields.

Most legumes have a great capacity to adapt to diverse climate and soil conditions. They are resistant to drought and are very adapted to the agroclimatic conditions of a dry Mediterranean and continental climate, although they appreciate fresh soils that result in higher yields.
