AB  - In past few decades, soybean breeders in Europe have been successful in producing a large number of commercial varieties using conventional breeding methods, most of all single seed descent (SSD) method with various modifications. As a supplement to conventional breeding methods, number of breeding tools like high‐throughput phenotyping, marker assisted selection, genomic selection, and others, are used to speed up the breeding process. Low genetic diversity is a major obstacle to soybean improvement. Therefore, projects between Europe and China, centre of origin of soybean, that involve germplasm exchange are intensified in recent years. Utilization of wild soybean species, especially perennial ones, bears a huge, still unused potential for improving soybean breeding process. Increased demand for non‐GMO soybeans, led to intensifying of soybean research throughout Europe which resulted in the number of companies that offer commercial soybean varieties. The oldest and best‐known among them are Lidea from France, Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops from Serbia, Agroscope from Switzerland, RAGT from France and a number of other companies which initiated soybean breeding programs later.

AB  - Legume‐supported cropping systems affect environmental, production and economic impacts. In Europe, legume production is still marginal with grain legumes covering less than 3% of arable land. A transition towards legume‐supported systems could contribute to a higher level of protein self‐sufficiency and lower environmental impacts of agriculture. Suitable approaches for designing legume‐supported cropping systems are required that go beyond the production of prescriptive solutions. We implemented an interactive research process with scientists and advisors in 16 study areas in nine European countries to understand, explore and develop cropping systems with a focus on soybean and other grain legumes. The results of 24 rotation comparisons showed that grain legume integration decreased N fertilizer use and nitrous oxide emissions (N2O) in more than 90% of the comparisons with reductions ranging from 6‐142 kg N ha‐1 and 1‐6 kg N2O ha‐1, respectively. In over 75% of the rotation comparisons, cropping systems with legumes had lower nitrate leaching.

AB  - Legume-supported cropping systems afect environmental, production, and economic impacts. In Europe, legume production is still marginal with grain legumes covering less than 3% of arable land. A transition towards legume-supported systems could contribute to a higher level of protein self-sufciency and lower environmental impacts of agriculture. Suitable approaches for designing legume-supported cropping systems are required that go beyond the production of prescriptive solutions. We applied the DEED framework with scientists and advisors in 17 study areas in nine European countries, enabling us to describe, explain, explore, and redesign cropping systems. The results of 31 rotation comparisons showed that legume integration decreased N fertilizer use and nitrous oxide emissions (N2O) in more than 90% of the comparisons with reductions ranging from 6 to 142 kg N ha−1 and from 1 to 6 kg N2O ha−1, respectively. In over 75% of the 24 arable cropping system comparisons, rotations with legumes had lower nitrate leaching and higher protein yield per hectare. The assessment of above-ground biodiversity showed no considerable diference between crop rotations with and without legumes in most comparisons. Energy yields were lower in legume-supported systems in more than 90% of all comparisons. Feasibility and adaptation needs of legume systems were discussed in joint workshops and economic criteria were highlighted as particularly important, refecting fndings from the rotation comparisons in which 63% of the arable systems with legumes had lower standard gross margins. The DEED framework enabled us to keep close contact with the engaged research-farmer networks. Here, we demonstrate that redesigning legume-supported cropping systems through a process of close stakeholder interactions provides benefts compared to traditional methods and that a large-scale application in diverse study areas is feasible and needed to support the transition to legume-supported farming in Europe.

AB  - Integration of legumes into European agricultural systems would diversify the highly specialized cropping systems that are dominated by cereals and increase resource efficiency of agricultural systems. By providing high quality protein for food and feed as well as regulating and supporting services, legumes contribute essential ecosystem services. In order to assess the overall effects of legumes in agricultural systems, it is necessary to consider how legumes are integrated in cropping systems and evaluate the impacts of this integration. As legumes influence the production of other crops in the rotation and as the interaction of legumes are multiplex, an assessment of the cropping system that considers multiple criteria is required. The objective of this work was to assess the impacts of changes in crop rotations through the integration of legumes using cropping systems implemented in practice. We used a multi-actor approach to incorporate the knowledge of a range of legume experienced actors representing value chains with soybean, pea, faba bean, lupin and forages for food and feed and evaluate thereby the role of legumes in crop rotations of diverse systems from Ireland in the West to Ukraine in the East. Within the research process we firstly identified region-specific crop rotations with cultivation techniques based on expert opinion in the 17 different study areas. One rotation representing the current farming without legumes and at least one alternative legume-based crop rotation was specified per region. Secondly, a valid set of 
indicators was developed, including environmental, economic and agronomic indicators. The indicators were calculated for each cropping system at the rotational level, considering pre-crop effects i.e. adapted N fertilizer application rates and yields. Finally, the cropping system assessment compared current farming practices to legume-based alternatives. Trade-offs and synergies between different indicators e.g. gross margins and N fertilizer use were identified. On average, crop rotations with legumes reduced nitrous oxide emissions by 21% and 26% and N fertilizer use by 26% and 45% in arable and forage systems, respectively. While protein output was increased by 13% and 5%, energy output was reduced by 10% and 9% in arable and forage systems. Gross margin effects of introducing legumes were variable and site specific. Consideration of the full economic value of the crops as feed, subsidies for legumes, and the application of carbon taxes increased the relative performance of the legume-supported systems. The presented cropping system assessment within a multi-actor approach enables an exploration of the opportunities and challenges for integrating legumes in European crop rotations considering the views of local actors and can thereby provide multi-criteria guidance on the validation of potential alternative strategies.
