Description Not Available
Natural gums and resins are export-oriented and also linked to the livelihoods of the growers/collectors. Market
factors related to significant shifts in demand and prices, lead to considerable turbulence in the sector, such as
interest in production, industrial economics, including R&D needs. Therefore we have to be fully cognizant of market dynamics in order to ensure that current researches are relevant. Export of guar gum jumped to 3.53 lakh tonnes (lt) in 2010-lL from 2.18 lt last year. The prices of guar seed which remained at a modest level of Rs 2360/- per quintal, also shot up to Rs 3892/- by the middle of this year. Due to the favourable market climate, the area under guar production this year is projected to touch 3 million ha in 2011, about 15% higher than the previous year. Guar is a rainfed crop grown in drier areas of the country, especially the northwestern states. A negative relationship is reported between the rainfall and production/area. But the production dynamics are influenced by the temporal and spatial distribution of the rainfall as well as the market perception.
