The presentation is by P Kumar, IARI and P K Joshi, IFPRI from the one day workshop on ‘Pulses for Nutrition in India: Changing Patterns from Farm-to-Fork’ organized on Jan 14, 2014. The workshop is based on a few studies conducted by the International Food Policy Research Institute under the CGIAR’s Research Program on Agriculture for Nutrition and Health. These studies covered the entire domain of pulse sector in India from production to consumption, prices to trade, processing to value addition, and from innovations to the role of private sector in strengthening the entire pulse value chain. These studies were designed to better understand the drivers of changing dynamics of pulses in the value chain from farm-to-fork, and explore opportunities for meeting their availability through increased production, enhanced trade and improved efficiency.

2. Backdrop
A
gradual shift is taking place
from traditional diets, dominated
by cereals and pulses, to a
dietary mix rich in high-value
commodities (livestock,
horticultural and processed
food).

27. Summary of key findings
• Similarity in patterns of decline in consumption of pulses
across demographic, income and farm size groups
• Decline in rate of pulses more in case of higher income
groups than lower income groups
• Decline rate of pulses more in case of larger farm sizes
than smaller farm sizes
• Increase in consumption of cheaper pulses like peas, soya
and Khesari (lathyrus)
• Demand of value added (processed) pulses is increasing
significantly
• Diversification towards protein sources (livestock and
processed food)
Decline of pulses share in total intake of proteins
Deficit of pulses projected around 3 million tonnes in future too.
