Value of pulses
1. Source of nitrogen to farm crops
2. Risk mitigation under adverse agroclimatology
3. Source of crop diversification sustainable agriculture and farming systems
and balanced ecological support for survival and socio-economic and balanced ecological support for survival and socio-economic
implications
4. Land use diversification, integrated farming, overcoming desertification
5. Source of protein for humans, important to combat child / mother
malnutrition
6. Sustained energy, micronutrients, anti-oxidants

Production / Utilization Potentials
1. Potentials as high for grain yield as for cereals, higher for biological yield
2. Adaptation to conditions not fit for most other crops
3. Risk mitigation under adverse agroclimatology
4. Large diversity of food uses
5. Hidden demand veiled by affordability factors
6. Not possible to reverse declining percapita consumption, but
7. Vegetarianism an expanding phenomenon - supported by pulses

What is expected as government support
Capacity and capability building through PPP: Value chain to involve multiple players, collaborative strength of public and private players -more formal strategic alliance (with or without equity participation) to raise productivity
Crop-situation specific thrust: Pulses canvas is wide - disaggregate thrust areas/
action plans,focus on specific crops / groups of crops. Intercrops and catch crops have an entirely different agronomic scenario as compared to pure crops.
Educate, enthuse and empower the farmer: Address current barriers to pulse
cultivation, facilitatie engagement platforms to demonstrate benefits of pulse cultivation
Reviving the Dal Milling Industry: Dal mills have old technology (high losses) low
domestic availability of pulses, high working capital. large number of intermediaries
R&D for improving yields for pulses: Yield improvement high yield / hybrid / treated
/ pest&disease-resistant , drought resistant, etc., including GMO

Points for Action
The less complicated the plan the better.
1.Best varieties suited to agroclimatic zone the nucleus and breeder seeds
2.Seed villages, for planned production and distribution network, primarily through
farmer-participatory approach.
3.The provisions of cluster demo approach of NFSM for pulses need to be extended if
necessary to identified districts and should not be limited to pre-identified districts.
4.May not be confined to NFSM but may also implemented under RKVY too so as to
overcome some of the inherent limitations of NFSM.
5. Intercrop pigeonpea in Banswara, Chittor, Dungarpur, Baran, Jhalawar, karoli, sawai
madhopur, bundi, bhilwara, jaipur, sikar, etc. to obtain 2 – 5 million tonnes from 10 million
ha of maize / bajra intercrop, adding Rs 8000 (-20,000) crores to farm gnd annually
6.Summer mungbean / urdbean in UP, Punjab and rabi mungbean / urdbean in Andhra
and T. N. to add equal amount of production and value (2 - 3 million tonnes, Rs 7000 -
15,000 crores
