Abstract

The study has found that there is a scope of increasing area under pulses during the all seasons, as its cost per hectare is less with higher net returns than the competing crops like wheat, gram and mustard in water-deficit and resource-poor conditions. India needs to produce the required quantity, but also remain competitive to protect indigenous pulses production. Improved technologies (improved, high yielding varieties and appropriate crop management practices) are available, hence increase the productivity.
