Protéagineux
The protéagineux are Plante S cultivated which have as characteristic to be leguminous plants that one cultivates to collect their seeds. In Europe developed mainly pea protéagineux cultures, of field bean and lupin. In 1993, there was in France nearly 800000 hectares of these cultures, which at the time were encouraged by the common agricultural policy of the European Union. Soya is classified separately a little. Although being a leguminous plant also, it produces oil which makes that one classifies it among the vegetable-oil plant. Colza and the sunflower are not strict protéagineux but oilseeds, since they are not leguminous plants. The main feature of leguminous plants is not to require nitrate fertilizers, very polluting, since these plants fix nitrogen of the air. For a few years, these cultures have been reduced in Europe, because of an inadequate price policy. The seeds of protéagineux are primarily used, in Europe, for the food of the animals. Sources of proteins, they make it possible to reduce the consumption of soya bean oil cake, imported outside of Europe. Most frequently, protéagineux is built-in food intended for monogastric (pigs and poultries, in particular).
