Global and Regional Trends in Production, Trade and
Consumption of Food Legume Crops
Abstract
Food legumes play an important and diverse role in the farming systems and in the diets of poor people
around the world. They are ideal crops for simultaneously achieving three developmental goals in
targeted population—reducing poverty, improving human health and nutrition, and enhancing ecosystem
resilience. This report provides global and regional trend analysis and sheds light on the pulse crop
production, price, trade, and consumption patterns observed in the developing world, developed countries
and globally from mid-1990s to 2008. The study is conducted through a review of secondary data and
published research and analysis reports, and presents data and analysis for cereals to compare and
contextualize the trends, patterns and outlook for pulses.
Globally, the harvested area under pulse crops is about one-tenth the harvested area under all cereal crops
and a high proportion of pulse area harvested is under rainfed-low input systems compared to cereal
crops. Thus, in 2008, the average
