2,201 Lentil Europe Underutilised NULL From RADIANT Deliverable 6.1: The strongest competition for lentils in the European market is from large-scale suppliers from Canada, the USA and Turkey. Lentils arrive in Europe through importers specialised in sourcing, trading and/or managing local brands. In Europe, most lentils are sold through supermarkets. Catering establishments (such as restaurants), ethnic stores and street markets offer lentils but are smaller segments. Online sales through web shops are increasing, especially in northern Europe. Retail prices for dried lentils in Europe are between 1.5 and 3 euros per kg and 3 to 5 euros for organic lentils. Pricing depends on variety, package size, brand and country 9781
2,202 Lupin Europe Underutilised NULL From RADIANT Deliverable 6.1: Lupins are most commonly used as forage and direct consumption crops. Still, recent reports on their nutritional properties have sparked an increase in their use and the production of functional foods. Lupin production in Europe declined steadily during the second half of the 20th century, mainly because of low productivity driven by seasonal variability, the low price of lupin grain and EU policies favouring the importation of soya bean. Value-chain characteristics to be considered comprise agricultural production in terms of cost factors and yield effects, agricultural policies driving farmers' decisions, production quantities and qualities demanded by processing companies, sustainability impacts, and factors influencing the acceptance of lupin products by European consumers 9781
2,203 Fava (Faba) Bean Europe Underutilised NULL The fava beans supply chain typically consists of operations: seeds cultivation, primary production (farming), secondary manufacturing (processing, protein extraction), food and feed product manufacturing, distribution and retailing. In the ecosystem, Fava bean pods can be used as an inexpensive feed source, while the starch remaining from the processing of the beans can be used as a biofertiliser 9781
2,204 French Bean (Common Bean) Europe Underutilised NULL Common bean is the most important grain legume for human consumption worldwide and Europe's most consumed grain legume. In Europe, 544.330 ha are cultivated with beans, producing 1,9 million Supply chains for common dry beans are usually short and often partly integrated with large producers and food manufacturers. However, importers and specialised sourcing companies are also essential, mainly when beans are imported from smaller suppliers. The food manufacturing industry comprises canning companies, packers, processors and food brands. Several food companies will buy common dry beans directly from local producers or exporters, especially companies that have beans as a core product, such as Pedon, La Doria Group (Italy), Luengo (Spain) and Sabarot (France). One of the largest processors and packers of beans in Northern Europe is Müller's Mühle (Germany) (CBI. Entering the European market for kidney beans and other common dry beans, 2022). 9781
2,205 Bambara Groundnut Europe Underutilised NULL The bambara groundnut production cycle consists of 11 steps: soil preparation, sowing, weeding, harvesting, drying, dehulling, winnowing, sorting, transport, packaging and storage. Farmers estimated that 50% of their Bambara groundnut production is used for domestic consumption while 30% is used for sale. The first distribution channel of Bambara groundnut is a local network where farmers harvest and sell their produce directly to one-site collectors or consumers in the market of their village. The second chain consists of collectors who supply traders (retailers and wholesalers) before they reach consumers and exporters. (Mbosso, et al., 2018) The top 3 producers of Bambara groundnut in Europe are the Netherlands, Belgium and Bulgaria (INDEXBOX. Bambara bean, 2022). 9781
2,206 Winged Bean Europe Underutilised NULL Winged bean grows abundantly in hot and humid equatorial countries. In Asia, the major producing countries are India, Burma, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Indo-China, and China,xtending to Papua & New Guinea (P. K. Singh., 2022). 9781
2,207 Bere Barley Orkney, United Kingdom Underutilised NULL Bere barley was grown in large amounts up until the early 20th century. After this period, it was kept alive by small crofters and farmers in the likes of the Orkney Islands, Shetland Islands and the Western Isles. Orkney is the only place where Bere Barley is still grown for human consumption and for Bere meal production, used for making traditional biscuitsBannock) for tourists (SASA., 2022). 9781
