The score is calculated from the data of the nutrition facts table and the composition data (fruits, vegetables and legumes).

Good for agricultural biodiversity
Contains neglected or underutilized crops: Lentils
Did you know?Since 1900, 75% of plant diversity has been lost as farmers around the world have abandoned local varieties for high-yielding varieties adapted to mass industrial processing. As a result, 60 % of human energy intake in the world comes from only 3 species: wheat, rice and corn.
Why it mattersThe lack of variety of crops makes our food supply more vulnerable to pests, diseases and climate change.
What you can doConsuming diverse cereals, legumes, vegetables and fruits contributes to:
- preserving neglected and underutilized species
- rural development and support of local farmers and companies
- preserving of diversified landscapes
- food security
- and your health!
Open Food Facts participates in the European project DIVINFOOD (funded from European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme). DIVINFOOD aims to develop food chains that value under-utilised agrobiodiversity in order to act against the decline of biodiversity and to meet the growing expectations of consumers for healthy, local products that contribute to sustainable food systems.
