Our Ingredients
Fava Beans
A Hidden Gem of The Andes
01
Nitrogen fixation
Fava beans have a unique ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, which can reduce the need for synthetic nitrogen fertilizers. This nitrogen-fixing capacity can improve soil fertility and reduce the environmental impact of agriculture.
02
Crop Rotation
Fava beans are often used in crop rotation systems to enhance soil health and reduce the buildup of pests and diseases. This practice contributes to sustainable farming by reducing the need for chemical inputs.
03
Water Efficiency
Fava beans typically require less water compared to many other crops, which is advantageous in regions with water scarcity. Water-efficient crops are generally considered more sustainable.
04
Reduced Pesticide Use
Fava beans can have fewer pest problems compared to some other crops, which can lead to a reduction in pesticide use. Integrated pest management (IPM) strategies can be employed for sustainable pest control.
