In this episode, we dive into the world of pulses—edible seeds from the legume family, including lentils, dry beans, and chickpeas (also known as Garbanzo beans). Discover why pulses are becoming a crucial part of the food industry, driven by rising consumer demand for plant-based protein, increasing protein needs in developing economies, longer shelf life, and impressive drought resistance.
Join Lionel Kambeitz from Above Foods as he talks with Damian about his Canadian company's expansion into U.S. pulse production and processing. With the growing interest in pulse farming and consumption, this episode highlights a promising trend in the business of agriculture.
Tune in to learn how pulses are shaping the future of sustainable agriculture and plant-based diets!
