Guar also commonly known as clusterbean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) is a drought resilient legume native to the desert region, and its name is derived from a Sanskrit term for cow fodder. This crop has its roots in the western and northwestern regions of India and Pakistan and grown for millennia as a vegetable, green manure, green fodder, seeds, and for the extraction of guar gum. But during the past few decades, it has started to gain popularity for its industrial uses. India, particularly, the state of Rajasthan accounts for 80% of global guar production, producing nearly 1 to 1.25 million tons annually. Guar gum is mostly produced in India and Pakistan, although it is also produced by other nations, including the United State of America, China, Australia, and few countries of African continent.
