      The total world production of pulses (chickpeas, lentils, lupins, pigeon peas, vetches, and other minor pulses) in 2019 was 30.7 million MT, which represented an increase of 66.42% compared to 18.4 million MT in 1990 (Figure 1.3). Chickpeas (14.3 million MT) and lentils (5.7 million MT) accounted for 65% of the total pulses production. From 1990 to 2009, pulses production increased by 4.5 million MT, whereas a 7.9 million MT increase was reported in just a 10‐year period from 2010 to 2019. With respect to regional distribution, Asia led the global production with 65.60% share, followed by Americas (11.72%), and Africa (11.00%).

      The total area under pulses cultivation was 31.4 million hectares in 2019, which showed an increase of 6.3 million hectares or 25.20% since 1990. However, area under cultivation decreased significantly from the preceding year (2018), which was an all‐time high of 38.1 million hectares. It is noted that most of the increase in area was recorded from 2010 to 2019, while it remained somewhat flat during the preceding 20 years (1990–2009).

      The total world production of cowpeas was 8.9 million MT in 2019, which was more than four times as compared to 2.1 million MT in 1990 (Figure 1.3). However, from 2010 to 2019, an increase of only 25.47% was recorded, compared to 7.1 million MT in 2010. The area under cowpeas cultivation since 1990 exhibited a significant growth, i.e., from 5.7 to 14.4 million hectares. In contrast to dry beans and pulses, the boost in cowpea production appeared to be related mainly to the increases in the cultivated area. Nonetheless, technological advances too have contributed partially to higher production of cowpeas globally.

      The average yield of dry beans, all pulses, and cowpeas was 874, 1124, and 616 kg/hectare, respectively, in 2019. As was the case with the total production and area under cultivation, yields of dry beans, all pulses, and cowpeas since 1990 have recorded a 32.26, 32.08, and 60.78% increase, respectively.
