Yard Long Beans are one of the ancient crops and are botanically classified as Cowpea. The yard long beans belong to the Fabaceae family. The crop is native to southern Asia with China and India being among the top producers of the yard long beans. Apart from southern Asia, Africa, and South America also grow the Chinese beans. In fact, in Africa and South America, the beans are treated as a popular and sustainable staple. The yard long beans are drought-tolerant which makes them one of the extremely resistant vegetables. They are also hailed among the healthiest vegetables with an abundance of micronutrients, phytonutrients, and other food essentials. Yard long beans are rich in Vitamin B1, B2, plant proteins, riboflavins, phosphorus, iron, fiber, and pectin. The beans are remedial and can be used to treat diarrhea, eczema, kidney disorders and also help in recovering from many other diseases. You can consume the long beans in a variety of ways, including eating them raw. In the Asian culinary culture, they are usually cooked along with potatoes and a mix of other vegetables. You can even add them to chutneys, sauces, and or salads for a hearty meal!

Planting instructions
Keep a gap of at least 8 inches, when you are planting the seeds. They should be planted 1 inch deep in the ground.
It will take 6 to 10 days for the seeds to germinate and the vegetable will emerge five weeks from sowing.
The beans arrive about 10 to 12 days after blooming.
When the beans have sprouted,place poles at each end and in the middle of the row to support its development.
Growing Requirements
watering
Soak seeds in water before sowing, for better germination. After planting, it needs heavy watering at regular intervals.
pests
The crop may become a victim of small soft bodied insects that breed on the underside of leaves and/or stems of plant. These insects usually lay egg clusters of 50-150 eggs on the leaves, and subsequently drill holes in the foliage. Or the young larvae may heavily feed on the leaves leaving them skeletonized: shallow, dry wounds on fruit. The pests that attack this crop are Aphids, Cutworms Flea, Beetles, Hornworms.
soil
Yard long beans grow in a well-drained medium loam with a pH of 6.0-7.5.
spot
The plant requires a full exposure to sunlight, so plant accordingly.
temperature
Long beans prefer warm summers, more than 20°C [68°F]. The plant is very sensitive to cold temperatures.
how to harvest
When the bean becomes 12 inches in length, one can start harvesting the crop.
You can cut off the green coloured yard long bean with a keen knife.
If you need to determine how the bean pods grow, you can leave one or two of them while trimming. They will form peas inside the pod that can be consumed like any dried pea.
