LEGUMINOSE factsheet: Overcoming intercrop market barriers

Enabling market access for mixed cereal-legume grain products through stakeholder collaboration and on-farm innovations

or

Detail description

This factsheet presents findings from a Danish stakeholder workshop addressing market barriers for intercrops, particularly mixed grain products. It outlines practical solutions for handling uneven maturity and drying, and explores opportunities for food, feed, and value chain development. Key recommendations include securing drying facilities, assessing mixed grain quality, and collaborating with local farmers, processors, and retailers. The approach supports higher-protein products, reduced cultivation costs, and lower environmental impact. The work is funded by UKRI and the European Union under Horizon Europe.
