The World Pulses Day Secretariat welcomes your participation in an open event to celebrate World Pulses Day 2022 Thursday, 10 February 2022, 12:30-14:30 hours (CET).
Pulses are particularly important for sustainable crop production, they play a significant role in improving soil fertility, and have a positive impact on the environment. As a source of proteins, pulses are particularly relevant for healthy diets. Pulses also contribute to creating livelihood opportunities and equity. The 2022 World Pulses Day’s theme will be: “Pulses to empower youth in achieving sustainable agrifood systems”.
