Faba Beans (Victor type)

Beans used for the export market are spring sown field beans (vicia faba) and are normally sown in February and harvested the following August/September. The most popular variety is Fuego which has a large bold seed and pale skin making it ideally suited to the various market demands.
The end use for this type of bean varies, however they form an important part of the diet in many countries either canned or purchased by the end consumer dry and then pre soaked before cooking.

Crops are grown under strict guidelines in an effort to achieve the highest quality possible. Our growers are required to pay particular attention to keeping bruchid beetle damage and stain to a minimum whilst also ensuring that the produce is handled carefully at harvest time to avoid cracked seed coats.
