==Legumes are more important than Britney Spears==
This article is a brush-off. It is unbelievable to me that no mention is made of rhizomes, for instance. Legumes are one of the only plants that can create sustainable agriculture. [[Special:Contributions/71.22.155.114|71.22.155.114]] ([[User talk:71.22.155.114|talk]]) 03:13, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Legumes are more important than Britney Spears

This article is a brush-off. It is unbelievable to me that no mention is made of rhizomes, for instance. Legumes are one of the only plants that can create sustainable agriculture. 71.22.155.114 (talk) 03:13, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Legumous trees

Not sure whether its worth a article section, but here goes anyway: legumous trees are not mentioned in article, so perhaps include it ? a example is Moringa oleifera —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.176.12.176 (talk) 07:16, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you meant the other drumstick tree, Cassia fistula. Nadiatalent (talk) 17:28, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Legume and pulse: any difference?

I'm struggling to understand what is the difference, if any, between legume and Pulse (legume). And if there's no difference, why are there two articles? Thanks for any help. --gråb whåt you cån (talk) 18:30, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Pulse (legume) page seems to cover the matter well: "A pulse ... is an annual leguminous crop yielding from one to twelve seeds of variable size, shape, and color within a pod. Pulses are used for food and animal feed. The term "pulse", as used by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), is reserved for crops harvested solely for the dry seed. This excludes green beans and green peas ...". There are lots of legumes that are not pulses. Nadiatalent (talk) 20:14, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Nadia. I should have read more closely. --gråb whåt you cån (talk) 22:13, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
