Cowpea is an annual leguminous plant that is widely cultivated for its edible beans. It primarily self-pollinates, making it a robust and adaptable crop. As the demand for cowpea increases worldwide, the South African cowpea exporter has seen a significant rise in the export of this valuable legume. With its many health benefits and versatility in cooking, cowpea is now gaining more recognition. The export of black-eyed beans, a popular variety of cowpea, from South Africa has particularly surged in recent years. For South African exporters, this is a promising business opportunity, and the country's cowpea exports continue to include a variety of high-quality cowpea varieties, meeting the growing global demand.
