Productivity of released varieties of pulses is much lower than the notified variety of lower-yielding ones 

When it comes to pulses, India stands out: The country produces a quarter of all pulses in the world and consumes 27 per cent — more than any other.

India is also the largest importer of pulses. Madhya Pradesh is a major pulse-producing state in the country; it caters to 32 per cent of the country’s total production.
A large number of pulses are grown across multiple agro-climatic zones:

Kharif: Arhar (pigeonpea ); urad (black gram); moong (green gram); barbati (cow pea), lathyrus
Rabi: gram; pea; ramjash masoor (lentil) 
Zaid (summer): urad; moong; cow pea
The varietal development programme of pulses was strengthened by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) in 1967 under All India Co-ordinate Research Improvement Programme.
