ABSTRACT
This paper contends that the importance of grain legumes in human nutrition in the Caribbean or elsewhere lies in their ability to supplement diets and in their potential for solving food and nutrition problems in the Region. The grain legumes are sources of energy, protein, minerals (including iron and calcium) and vitamins. They may have been used in human diets for over 10,000 years
