Red lentils are extremely nutritious and healthy and one of the major sources of protein. They are known to be easily digestible. In addition to protein it is also a good source for iron. India is the largest producer of lentils in the world but Canada is the biggest exporter. The sowing period in India is Nov-Dec whereas harvested during March-April. It is mainly grown in the central part of India.

India use to export red lentils in whole and split form to Gulf, EU and other countries but due to its high local demand it has put ban on export of lentils. It has to import lentils in big quantity from Canada, U.S., Turkey etc.

The prices for red lentils mainly depend upon the local production and demand, the prices of other pulses and global production. India as a big consumer certainly influences the international prices.
