India’s 2024 Kabuli Chickpea Harvest / Poor yields offset large part of acreage increase - Pulse Pod

“In some areas, kabuli yields are down 50% and in others less than 10%, but there is no doubt yields are down across the kabuli growing area”
“My sense is that the kabuli crop out of Madhya Pradesh is about 300,000 MT. And I estimate production from the other states at no more than 100,000 MT.”
“Some believe the government may open the market to Russian kabuli chickpeas as well because they can be used as a substitute for desi chickpeas.”
