An Overview of Fava Bean | Understudied Indigenous Crops

The legume Vicia faba, known as fava bean, faba bean, broad bean, or horse bean, is an effective cover crop that can also be prepared and eaten in a variety of ways. Join Dr. Pat Byrne (CSU Soil and Crop Sciences) at Colorado State University's Agricultural Research, Development and Education Center to see fava bean grown in the field. Learn about the origins and use of fava bean and how plant breeding technology has reduced the glycosides that are detrimental to those suffering from favism.
