Toor (Pigeon Peas)

Toor (Pigeon Peas) – India’s Protein-Rich Pulse with Global Demand

Toor, also known as Pigeon Peas or Arhar Dal, is one of India’s most important pulses and a major export commodity. Known for its nutty taste, firm texture, and high protein content, toor is widely used in daily cooking, soups, curries, stews, and processed food products. Rich in protein, fiber, potassium, iron, and essential amino acids, pigeon peas are highly valued as a plant-based protein source. With India being the largest producer and consumer, and global demand increasing in Africa, Asia, and Western markets, toor holds a strong position in the international pulse trade.
