European extension network for the development of grain legumes production in the eu

Objective

The European deficit for rich protein raw materials for animal feeding is still very high: 75% of its needs are imported. Therefore there is a strong demand for home-produced, traceable and good quality protein crop. The GL-PRO concerted action aims at developing grain legume crop production in different regions through a better valorisation of available scientific tool and genetic materials and through the reinforcement and the networking of existing extension services of 6 European countries. This project is connected with the thematic network project "PROLINK" and several other concerted actions and research prograromes on grain legumes.
