India’s produce of cereal has been growing year by year and its one of the top manufacturers of different crops like rice, wheat, pulses, sugarcane and cotton. In 2019 India’s pulses production is 23.15 million tonnes which contribute about 24 percent of world pulses output. In the present paper area, output and productivity of pulses in India are investigated. The study is descriptive in nature and used secondary data from different government publications. The paper concludes that the increase in output is much higher than the area of pulses, whereas total pulses production is always affected by the size of holding.
