Combined with low production in Mexico, global chickpea supplies are under increased pressure. Here's what that means for hummus-lovers.
. The U.S. has traditionally been a country that exports more chickpeas than it imports and will continue to be even in the current market.
Navneet Chhabra, director of Global Garbanzo, said the loss in India's kabuli chickpea production means the global supply chain of the legume is out 100,000 metric tons of product.The threat of lower chickpea supplies looms again this year, according to a leader in the global pulse industry. According to Chhabra, global prices for the kabuli chickpea in India could increase from the already above-average levels. With India at a deficit, Chhabra added that the country will need to increase its import volumes, focusing the demand on other countries to make up for lost supplies.
"Even if all these origins increase the planted area by 30%, I still foresee a shortage for the next six months, especially of the large caliber sizes," Chhabra said. It is unclear how the war in Ukraine and the ongoing transport issues out of the Black Sea will continue to affect global chickpea supplies, the Global Pulse Confederation stated.Not only are they a great source of plant-based protein, but they are also widely consumed in many cultures. From Middle Eastern cuisine in falafel to chana dal in India and hummus in the U.S., the legume's nutritional benefits have helped drive the popularity of chickpeas.
