Swiss agriculture can become more sustainable and self-sufficient by shifting from forage to grain legume production

B. Keller, C. Oppliger, et al.

In Switzerland, the pursuit of sustainable livestock production faces significant environmental challenges due to heavy reliance on feed imports. Research by Beat Keller, Corina Oppliger, Mirjam Chassot, Jeanine Ammann, Andreas Hund, and Achim Walter highlights the promising potential of local grain legume cultivation, such as pea, soybean, and faba bean, to enhance self-sufficiency and improve ecological health while addressing animal protein consumption.
