Scientific Name: Canavalia ensiformis. Common Name(s): jack bean. The jack bean is a tropical legume native to Southeast Asia and related to soybean and kudzu. It is a robust and hardy plant that will need plenty of space. It is easy to grow from seeds. Because jack beans are legumes, they can fix nitrogen from the air and return it to the soil, so many farmers used it in lieu of nitrogen fertilizers. Jack beans are also used for erosion control, build soil organic matter and as a forage and feedstuff for cattle,
