Asian Productivity Organization, 2003 ISBN: 92-833-7012-0 FOREWORDThe phenomenal economic growth in Asia and the Pacific in recent decades hasresulted in significant improvements in living conditions in the region, as reflected in peopleexpanded choices of the food they eat. Lifestyle changes have also occurred due to otherfactors, including increased interest in better health. All of these developments havecontributed to major shifts in food consumption patterns, and more people are expressing apreference for healthier foods.

4 In this context, Legumes are playing an increasingly importantrole as people rediscover their high nutritive value and health-enhancing , for example, are the most common legume and are now being hailed as themiracle food of the future. Recent claims about their anticarcinogenic effects are stirringglobal interest in the commodity. Several Processing and packing technologies are now beingdeveloped to maximize the potential of soybeans. Soy-based food initiatives are beingpursued to address nutritional issues such as the development of low-cost, soy-fortified or-blended food, promotion of soy milk in school lunch programs, and fortification of soy saucewith potential of Legumes for meeting food requirements is great.

5 However, in additionto developing the technologies for manufacturing legume-based products that are acceptableto consumers, there is also a need to undertake innovative marketing efforts and to educatethe public about their discuss the present situation of legume Processing and Utilization in membercountries and to identify measures to add more value-adding processes to legume products,the Asian Productivity Organization (APO) organized a Seminar on Processing andUtilization of Legumes from 9 to 14 October 2000 in Japan.
