Variety traits
Vicia faba L.
The crude protein content in faba bean grain ranges from 26% to 36%, serving as a key indicator of its quality as a high-protein forage crop.
In the reference 35 varieties crop Broad bean, where this is mentioned in the description.
Protein content in faba bean grain is typically measured as a percentage of absolutely dry matter. The crop is characterized by a typical accumulation range of crude protein from 26% to 36%, with values of 28–35% being considered high and serving as target benchmarks for breeding forage-type varieties.
Protein accumulation possesses a certain genetic stability; however, its level is heavily dependent on soil and climatic conditions and agronomic practices. In breeding, there is an inverse correlation between protein content and tannin concentration, which requires a comprehensive assessment of traits to improve feed digestibility. The biological value of the product is limited by a deficiency in sulfur-containing amino acids, such as methionine and cystine.
