Black grams are a type of lentils that are cultivated mainly in the South Asian countries. Popularly known as black lentil, these beans are little black seeds with a white interior. Black grams contain a high concentration of an antioxidant namely anthocyanin which is responsible for their dark hue. Being a member of Asiatic Vigna group, these beans fall under the category of warm-season crops which are grown annually. With high levels of nutrition, dietary fibre, proteins and vitamins along with a strong flavour, black grams form an important part of a healthy diet. Although, they can be grown in any soil type, black grams grow best in loamy soil. Driven by their health benefits, population growth and changing dietary habits, the consumption of black gram has witnessed strong growth in the past few decades. According to IMARC group, the global black gram market reached a volume of 3.2 Million Tons in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 6.5% during 2011-2018.
