The Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Legume Systems Research, in partnership with the Nepal USAID Mission, held a two-day exploration of lentil systems in Nepal late last year. The interactive workshop featured global and local experts exploring current and future global lentil system innovations while delving into the current state of the crop in Nepal.

A report by the Legume Systems Innovation Lab is now available which details recommendations from the participants on how future investments in six areas of lentil systems in Nepal can provide the greatest impact. The six areas include agronomy, integrated pest management, genetics and breeding, seed systems, markets and trade, and nutrition and gender.
