      abstract = {Sustainable food production is vital to ensure food and  nutritional security to growing human population. Recently,  there has been a shift in agricultural production system,  crop production is not only considering yield as primary  interest to produce higher number of calories for reducing  hunger, but also more nutrient-rich food to reduce  malnutrition or hidden hunger. Micronutrient malnutrition  is a continuing and serious public health problem in many  countries, various Interventions to alleviate this problem  have been implemented. Biofortification, the process of  breeding nutrients into food crops, provides a  comparatively cost effective, sustainable, and long-term  means of delivering more micronutrients. Legumes have  higher protein content than most plant foods approximately  twice than cereals and are rich in the key micronutrients  folate, niacin, thiamine, calcium, iron and zinc. This book  summarizes the biofortification of legumes. Detailed  information through contributed chapters shed light on  legumes research relevant to human health, with key topics  that include genomic and genetic resources for food  security, conventional and modern breeding approaches for  improving nutrition, agronomic traits and biotechnological  interventions.},
