A new research community is born!

Welcome to uklrc.org, the brand new virtual home of the UK Legume Research Community!

Whether you are involved in academic research, production and processing of legume crops or are an end user of legume-derived products, we hope these pages will help connect people with a shared passion for legumes, understanding how they work and how their extraordinary potential to benefit human health and the environment can best be realised.

We are pleased to announce that we will be holding our inaugural open Annual UKLRC conference on 14th & 15th February 2024 at the University of Reading and look forward to seeing you there.

The programme for the meeting is now complete (download here).
