Cover Story: To feed a world population of 9.3 billion, by 2050, more sustainable alternative protein sources have been sought. Alternative plant proteins are an emerging area for food and feed purposes since they may offer the nutritional requirements of protein and essential amino acids, with a lower carbon footprint and less water use compared to animal production, contributing to the world’s plant biodiversity and animal welfare. A future sustainable diet should rely on biodiversity, including legumes, cereals, and other protein sources, e.g., nuts, seeds, mushrooms, and macro- and microalgae. Among alternative protein sources, grain legumes (e.g., beans, lentils, chickpea, grass pea, fava beans, and pea) have huge versatility, being adjusted to the most diverse cultural and food habits worldwide.
