The <strong>NITI Aayog<\/strong> has unveiled a strategic roadmap to achieve <strong>self-sufficiency in pulses by 2030<\/strong> and <strong>double production to 51.57 million tonnes (MT) by 2047<\/strong>. Pulses, including lentils, chickpeas, pigeonpea, and black gram, play a critical role in Indian diets as a major source of protein. This initiative seeks to enhance <strong>nutritional security, rural livelihoods, and sustainable agriculture<\/strong> while reducing dependence on imports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Strategic_Vision_Production_Targets\"><\/span>Strategic Vision &amp; Production Targets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The roadmap sets progressive targets for pulses production. India produced <strong>26.06 MT in 2022\u201323<\/strong> and aims to reach <strong>34.45 MT by 2030<\/strong>. By 2047, production is expected to rise to <strong>51.57 MT<\/strong>, doubling the current levels. The strategy focuses on increasing productivity, minimizing losses, and optimizing resource use. Surplus pulses are projected at <strong>3.79 MT by 2030<\/strong> and <strong>16.48 MT by 2047<\/strong>, ensuring domestic supply meets growing demand while stabilizing market prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Pillars_of_the_Strategy\"><\/span>Key Pillars of the Strategy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NITI Aayog\u2019s roadmap emphasizes a <strong>multi-pronged approach<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Expansion of Cultivation<\/strong>: Increasing area under pulses cultivation through suitable cropping systems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Quality Seed Distribution<\/strong>: Ensuring farmers have access to high-yield, climate-resilient seeds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Post-Harvest Management<\/strong>: Minimizing storage and processing losses through modern infrastructure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clustering &amp; Market Linkages<\/strong>: Encouraging pulse clusters to enhance efficiency and reduce logistics costs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Climate-Smart Technologies<\/strong>: Promoting sustainable farming practices to adapt to changing weather patterns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Data-Driven Monitoring<\/strong>: Leveraging technology for real-time production tracking and policy interventions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mission_Backing_and_Financial_Support\"><\/span>Mission Backing and Financial Support<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The six-year <strong>Pulse Mission (2025\u201326)<\/strong> forms the backbone of this initiative. The program prioritizes <strong>pigeonpea, black gram, and lentils<\/strong>, providing <strong>Minimum Support Price (MSP), storage facilities, and modern cultivation techniques<\/strong>.

Beyond economic benefits, it will also <strong>strengthen nutritional security<\/strong>, particularly for low-income populations who rely on pulses as a primary protein source. By fostering rural development, the plan aligns with <strong>Atmanirbharta and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\" id=\"NITI-Aayog-pulses-strategy\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/thumb\/msid-123717344,imgsize-339806,width-400,resizemode-4\/indias-pulse-revolution-a-2030-vision.jpg\" alt=\"NITI Aayog pulses strategy\" title=\"NITI Aayog pulses strategy\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">NITI Aayog pulses strategy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_This_News_is_Important\"><\/span>Why This News is Important<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Significance_for_Government_Exam_Aspirants\"><\/span>Significance for Government Exam Aspirants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For students preparing for <strong>UPSC, State PSCs, SSC, banking, railways, defence, and teaching exams<\/strong>, understanding this policy is vital.
