Lupin has been cultivated for at least 2,000 years, and probably was first raised in Egypt, or at least in the general Mediterranean region.
Lupins are grown as both a forage and grainlegume in the USSR, Poland, Germany, South Africa, and the Mediterranean, and as a cash crop in Australia where they are exported to the European and East Asian feed markets.
Lupin can be planted in narrow rows (6- to 8-inch) or wide rows (30-inch) at a rate of 4 plants per square foot (175,000 seeds per acre or 120 pounds per acre).
The Nootka Lupin (Lupinus nootkatensis) is common on the west coast of North America, and is one of the species from which the gardenhybrids are derived, being valued in Britain for its tolerance of cool, wet summers.
