What do we know about the future of pulses in global and regional agrifood systems?
Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) account for about 55 percent of global pulse production. Nearly one-half (48 percent) of global production occurs in 16 low- and lower-middle income countries in the drylands of South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. The gap between pulse demand and supply is in...

| description | Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) account for about 55 percent of global pulse production. Nearly one-half (48 percent) of global production occurs in 16 low- and lower-middle income countries in the drylands of South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.
The gap between pulse demand and supply is increasing in South Asia.
Most recent foresight studies on pulses are focused on climate change impacts, adaptation, and mitigation.
Future foresight studies on specific pulse crops should target regions where these pulses are important in human diets.
Pulse trade should be promoted between countries that encompass the drylands of South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. |
