| Tóm tắt: | Grain legumes have been an important part of the social evolution of
mankind over the past 10,000 years, carbonized remains having been
discovered in Neolithic settlements. In more recent times, however, these
crops have become less fashionable, particularly in Europe and North
America, as the consumption of meat has increased and economic
pressures have promoted the growth of cereal monocultures in agricultural
systems. The increasing awareness of environmental problems caused by
pollution from the over use of fertilizers and a growing interest in more
healthy diets is again focusing interest on to this important group of plants.
The neglect of grain legumes has resulted in crops that are relatively
underdeveloped compared with cereals such as maize, wheat and rice.
These crops have been subjected to intensive scientific and technological
investigations following substantial public and private financial investment.
It is hoped that this book will begin the process of rectifying this imbalance. |
