Abstract

India is a major producer and consumer of pulses, but the country's pulse productivity is low. This is due to a number of factors, including nutrient depletion of soils, lack of crop diversification, and pests and diseases. This paper reviews the factors that are limiting pulse productivity in India and discusses some of the potential solutions
