India has imposed a 30 per cent import obligation on yellow peas, efficient Nov. 1, in keeping with a authorities notification issued late on Wednesday.
Shipments with a invoice of lading dated on or earlier than Oct. 31, 2025, can be exempt from the obligation, the order stated.
The federal government had earlier allowed duty-free imports of yellow peas till March 31, 2026, however home farmers had urged authorities to curb the inflow of low cost imports that had been pressuring native costs.
The South Asian nation is the world’s greatest importer of yellow peas, which it imports primarily from Canada and Russia.
