Abstract

The complimentary role of pulses in human nutntlOD is well known but unfortunately they have received least attention by the agricul tural scientists and are grown with traditional technology and under poor conditions of management. In fact, they have suffered from neglect on all accounts. World average yields of the main pulses are of the order of 0'5 ton per hectare compared with 2.8, 2.5 and 1.7 tons per hectare of maize, rice, and wheat respectively and so far no high yielding varieties of pulses, r esponsive to fertilizers are available.
