== History of Cultivation in Space (if there is any) == Currently, there is no specific information available on the cultivation of cowpea in space. However, legumes like cowpea are being considered for future space missions due to their nutritional benefits and adaptability. NASA and other space agencies have explored growing plants in space, such as lettuce and radishes, but cowpea has not been specifically mentioned in these experiments. The potential for cowpea to be used in future space agriculture is high due to its robustness and nutritional value. References: <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowpea</ref> Wikipedia. (n.d.).
