Pulses, which are next to cereals, are important protein rich crops of the world. The
major pulses of the world are peas, beans, gram, mungbeans, urdbeans and cowpeas
while the minor ones include like horsegram (hulga/kulthi). The production share of
each pulse is shown in Fig.1.1., which clearly indicate the dominance of bean, pea and
chickpea. Improvement in yield and productivity of pulses is the need of the hour, but
for this marginal land, aberrant rainfall, non availability of improved seeds, less or no
input and poor crop management are the main constraints. Amongst pulses
horsegram (Macrotyloma uniflorum (Lam.) Verdc) is highly neglected crop
throughout the world and hence require more emphasis on its improvement as it has
nutritional and medicinal value too.
