摘要

India is the world's largest producer and consumer of pulses. The Indian population today stands close to 950 million people and the growth rate is 2.5 % a year. A large segment of the population is vegetarian and pulses are the best source of proteinfor them. Today the requirement for pulses is about 17 million tonnes but production is 13 to 14 million tonnes leaving a gap of 3 to 4 million tonnes. This large gap between demand and supply is due to stagnant production, drought or a poor-crop as happened this year (1997) for Tyson chickpeas. India has imported about 200 thousand tonnes of Tyson chickpeas from Australia this calendar year and expects another 70 thousand tonnes to come from Australia between September and December 1997. Demand for pulses in India is also sometimes affected by their high price, as consumption is price sensitive. If the price of a particular pulse is high, its consumption falls and is supplemented by vegetables or other lower priced pulses. The production of pulses inIndia is normally between 12-14 million tonnes every year. The area under pulses fluctuates in a narrow range between 22-24 m hectares with the yield varying between 483 kg and 610 kg per hectare. Despite India being the largest producer, with a share of 35-36% in the world in terms of area and 27-28% in terms of production, the people do not get enough pulses to eat. Coupled with the population growth, the per capita net availability has fallen by half from 69 g per day in 1960-61 to 37 g in 1995 as against the minimum requirement of 80 g as suggested by WHO & FAO. It is also lower than the minimum level of 47 g prescribed by the Indian Council of Medical Research.
