Cowpea, also known as Blackeyed Pea, is a legume that thrives in sandy soil and low rainfall, making it suitable for semi-arid regions. It requires few inputs and can tolerate harsh conditions, making it a valuable crop for resource-poor farmers. Cowpeas are primarily grown for their protein-rich seeds and are consumed by 200 million people daily, but insect infestation poses a significant challenge to production.
