PULSES.

Pulses are unique crops because they have built-in mechanisms to fix atmospheric nitrogen in their root nodule.

They are also rich in protein and are well fit in various crop systems. India is a rare country which increases the variety of pulse crops like this which does not grow in any country of the world.






Generally grown pulses are spoon or cereal, cesar arcticum lin, pigeon [casal cage (L.) Milsp

1, Blackgram or Ordbien (Fesolus vulgaris lynn) and rice bean [V, umbellata (Thunb.) Ohvi and ohasi .

The production improved, which is mainly due to the increase in productivity as a result of the new varieties generation or the pulse improvement work was limited to collection and appraisal of land races in different areas.

Farmers were growing local varieties, which lacked genetic correctness. Pure line selection was evaluated from local varieties for yield potential.





The promising type of multi-locale was tested in triangle. Based on performance in multi-location tests, the best genotype was identified as varieties.

Such superior varieties contributed to the productivity of pulses in the early stage of pulse improvement.

Crop Improvement:

Indian Institute of Pulse Research (IIIPR) and All India Coordination Drain Reform Project developed large number of high yielding varieties (33) during the eighth plan.

Some of them are resistant or unsaturated, such as inefficient blight, wilt, powder fungi and sterility mosaic.

It enabled the cultivation of pulses in traditional and non-traditional areas with productivity and stability in production.

For the north-western plains field, 'Gaurav', 'GNG 146', 'Pusa 261' and 'PBGI', and anti-resistant varieties, such as 'Pusa' for disease, in spoon development of Ashokita-tolerant varieties,

The areas prone to eastern plains and central areas brought stability to the production of spoons.

Dove peas, sterility mosaic-resistant varieties 'Bihar' and 'DA11' increased productivity. The ICPL 87119, released for central and south zones, has the right to resistance to wilt and sterility mosaic.

The development of short-term genotype ('UPAS 120', 'Manak', 'ICPLN 151' and 'Pusa 85', which mature within 150 days) expanded its cultivation in non-traditional areas of Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana Helped in the form of Punjab and north-western Rajasthan pigeon-wheat sequence.

Chickpea, pigeon pea, lentil, mung bean, urad bean and field pea are major pulses grown and consumed in India. Among the pulses, chickpeacontributed 48%, Pigeonpea 17%, blackgram 10%, greengram 7% and other pulses 18% towards total pulses production.
