The Chickpea Project

Chickpea also known as garbanzo beans is delicious and can be cooked many ways. However, most chickpea consumed in our country is imported.

It is good to know that there is an effort by the Benguet State University(BSU) to grow this crop locally. Hopefully BSU succeeds in their objective.

To help encourage farmers to grow chickpea locally, I believe that there is also a need to ready a market for this crop should farmers begin growing and producing them.

My idea is to create a food enterprise selling various preparation of chickpea such as falafel, samosa, farinata, humus, etc.

Hopefully, I can convince the right people to take up this idea.
