Where are the fava beans sourced?
The fava beans are sustainability sourced and produced from Australia and recent research shows that fava beans help improve soil's physical properties, such as bulk density, porosity and water content at field capacity. As a nitrogen-fixing crop, fava beans do not require fertiliser and are a sustainable crop that can help improve soil fertility. Grain yields following faba plantings are also found to be higher, and after stripping and drying the beans the dry matter can be used as eco-friendly green compost.
That's a win, win, win in our books!
