The legumES will ensure: 1, the uptake of best practices in agrobiodiverse legume-based cropped systems; 2, the uptake of methodologies and tools to quantify and balance the environmental and economic ecosystem service (ES) benefits provided by legumes; 3, that the ES benefits and cost offered by legumes are quantified across scales from field, farm, regional, national, and global levels; and 4, ES will be assessed to identify those conditions which are able to meet the EU targets: to decrease agrichemical inputs and losses, combat climate change, reverse biodiversity loss, and ensure the best nutritional provisioning. To achieve this, legumES offers a multi disciplinary consortium comprising 22 partners from 12 EU- and third countries (UK, CH) and including: 7, academic institutions; 6, Research and Technology Organizations; 5, SMEs (or micro-SMEs); 2, non-governmental organisations; and 2, large commercial companies. The individuals comprising legumES offer skills which include: agricultural-crop and -environment (ES) monitoring, life cycle assessment, economic- and socioeconomic-modelling, social-science, EU-agricultural and environmental policy, and law, plus decision support systems. The legumES research and innovation strategy centres on the use of a multiactor action-research approach, that is, where legume-facing stakeholders, and especially producers though all value chains actors, can ‘operate’, ‘collaborate’ and, reflect critically’ on the measured ES benefits and costs of legume-based cropped systems, including legumes use in marginal lands; so that an optimal balance of ES can be achieved with success locally, and globally. To help achieve this LegumES also centres activities on a suite of 25 innovative legume-based Pilot Studies which use a wide range of legume species and types, plus different cropping approaches and linked value chains spanning the pedoclimatic regions of Europe.

豆类项目将确保：1、在以豆类为基础的农业生物多样性作物系统中采用最佳做法；采用量化和平衡豆类提供的环境和经济生态系统服务（ES）效益的方法和工具；3、豆类提供的ES效益和成本在农田、农场、区域、国家和全球层面上进行了量化；4、将对ES进行评估，以确定能够满足欧盟目标的条件：减少农业化学品投入和损失，应对气候变化，扭转生物多样性丧失，并确保最佳营养供应。为了实现这一目标，legumES提供了一个由来自12个欧盟和第三国（英国、中国）的22个合作伙伴组成的多学科联盟，包括：7个学术机构；6、研究和技术组织；5、中小企业（或微型中小企业）；2、非政府组织；2、大型商业公司。组成豆类的个人提供的技能包括：农业作物和环境（ES）监测、生命周期评估、经济和社会经济建模、社会科学、欧盟农业和环境政策、法律以及决策支持系统。豆类研究和创新战略的核心是使用多主体行动研究方法，即，面向豆类的利益相关者，特别是生产者，尽管所有价值链行为体，都可以“运作”、“合作”，并批判性地反思以豆类为基础的作物系统（包括在边际土地上使用豆类）的可测量的ES效益和成本；从而在本地和全球范围内实现ES的最佳平衡。为了帮助实现这一目标，LegumES还将活动集中在一套25项以豆类为基础的创新试点研究上，这些研究使用了广泛的豆类物种和类型，以及不同的种植方法和跨越欧洲气候区域的相互关联的价值链。
