Abstract

Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is a cool season grain legume crop with the potential to be grown as multi-purpose crop in areas with short growing season. Faba bean is grown in many regions in the world due to its high nutritional value, medicinal effect, and effective biological nitrogen fixation. Diverse ecosystem benefits are expected from integrating faba bean in cropping systems. This paper specifically reviews the published work covering agronomic practices, nutritional values, medicinal benefits, and faba bean's capacity for nitrogen fixation.
