세계의 콩가루 시장 : 예측(2025-2030년)

The pulse flour market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 11.27% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$74.492 billion in 2030 from US$44.261 billion in 2025.

Traditional agriculture systems and modern food processing have realized the nutritional benefits of pulses. They are inclusive of but not limited to the provision of complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, minerals, phytochemicals, protein, and vitamins. They assist in reducing blood glucose, preventing chronic health issues like diabetes, heart diseases, and obesity, minimizing inflammation, lowering blood cholesterol, and improving digestion. In the coming years, pulse consumption is expected to be at 7 kgs per capita globally. Pulses are also known to play an important role in preventing fetal defects during pregnancy. Additionally, food formulated to wean infants from mothers' milk can be enriched by adding certain types of pulse flours with flours derived from cereals, among others.

Flours derived from pulses have also been an integral part of traditional cookery in countries like India, wherein 30% of the population is reportedly vegetarian. Among chickpeas products, chickpea flour, obtained by milling split grams in small quantities, is a key ingredient in the preparation of several sweet and savory dishes and is widely consumed nationwide [Source: FAO].

The demand for plant-based alternatives and the urge toward veganism are strong drivers for the pulse flour market's expansion. Pulses are being seen as versatile and nutrient-rich ingredients for making plant-based diets easy to adopt for health, ethical, or environmental reasons. They are highly used in various vegan and vegetarian food products, including plant-based snacks, baked goods, pasta, and meat alternatives with high protein content, dietary fiber, and essential micronutrients.

This trend is further supported by rising awareness about sustainability, as pulse cultivation has a lower environmental footprint than traditional animal-based protein sources. Easy access to innovative pulse-based products in the retail and food service sectors will preserve the growth momentum in the following years.

The rising imports and exports of pulses are expected to positively influence the pulse flour market in the coming years. For instance, according to the Directorate General of Commercial Intelligence and Statistics, India has emerged as a major player in the global pulses trade, exporting 626,653.80 metric tons of pulses during the financial year 2023-24. This export activity generated revenue worth ?5,689.40 crores (USD 686.90 million), underlining the country's robust agricultural capabilities and strong demand for Indian pulses in international markets.

Similarly, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. pulse exports totaled USD978.63 million in 2023 and 1.05 million metric tons, indicating continuous growth in demand globally. Over the last three years, the average annual export value was USD 791.63 million, with a compound average growth rate of 2.2% (2014-2023). The key export markets include Mexico (USD 218.97 million) and Canada (USD 210.11 million), followed by the European Union (USD 141.82 million), Dominican Republic (USD 53.73 million), and China (USD 49.22 million). These figures speak to the U.S.'s good position in the world market for pulses, supported by high-quality produce and expanding international partnerships.

Pulse Flour Market Geographical Outlook:

• The North American region is expected to hold a significant share of the pulse flour market.

North America is expected to account for the largest market share for the pulse flour market, owing to lifestyle changes and rising environmental awareness worldwide. The growth of veganism and the rising demand for non-GMO, gluten-free, and natural ingredients are driving major companies to focus on product innovation and R&D to attract consumer interest and achieve market leadership.

Companies are increasing their portfolio to address the increasing demand, especially in bakery applications, where pulse flours benefit from gluten-free properties, better hydration, and nutritional factors. For example, Nutriati introduced its proprietary blend of chickpea flour and yellow pea protein, branded as Artesa Textured Pulse Protein, designed for plant-based meat products. This strategic focus on health-conscious consumers and product diversification further enhances the region's lead in the global pulse flour market.

Moreover, Asia Pacific is expected to hold a dominant share in the pulse flour market as its population is expanding while urbanization is at a phenomenal pace. Growing demand for convenient and nutritious foods in the region has greatly impacted the usage of pulse flour in applications that include snacks, baked foods, and traditional foods. Indian, Chinese, and Indonesian consumers emphasize high-protein, gluten-free, and fiber-rich diets, pushing the market even more. Another contributing factor to its position as a global pulse flour industry leader is the strong agricultural base and government initiatives to popularize plant-based nutrition.
