In 1996 world production stood at 57 million MT on 70.5 million ha with an average yield of 809 kg/ha. However, recent vast cutbacks by the Commonwealth of Independent States (former USSR) and reductions in EC feed production following the 1992 CAP reforms in 1993 have been offset by a sustained upward trend in Africa and a remarkable expansion in South Asia. Developing countries produce 71 % of the world's pulses. India remains the largest pulse producer with 27% of world production...... date: 2000 date_type: published volume: 34 publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers place_of_pub: The Netherlands pagerange: 1-29 pages: 704 refereed: TRUE isbn: 0-7923-5565-2 book_title: Linking Research and Marketing Opportunities for Pulses in the 21st Century editors_name: Knight, R official_url: http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-94-011-4385-1_1 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=The+Pulse+Economy+in+the+Mid-1990s%3A+A+Review+of+Global+and+Regional+Developments&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_type: pub citation: Kelley, T G and Rao, P P and Grisko-Kelley, H (2000) The Pulse Economy in the Mid-1990s: A Review of Global and Regional Developments.
