About Black Gram
Black Gram (Vigna mungo), known in India as Urad Dal, is one of South Asia's most important pulses — a high-protein legume central to staple dishes such as dal makhani, idli, dosa and papad. The small black-skinned bean reveals a creamy white interior when split (urad dal) or skinned (dhuli urad). India is the world's largest producer and consumer of black gram, cultivating it across Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu as both a Kharif and Rabi crop.
Black gram carries 24-26% protein and is rich in fibre, iron and folate, making it a cornerstone of vegetarian nutrition and an increasingly valued ingredient in the global plant-based protein movement. It trades in three principal forms — whole (sabut), split with skin (chilka), and skinned/split (dhuli) — each serving different culinary and processing needs across diaspora and Western health-food markets.
Compliance & Quality Standards for USA
The United States is India's largest agricultural export destination, importing over $8 billion in agri-commodities annually. All food shipments must comply with U.S. FDA food safety standards under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), including Prior Notice submission to the FDA before cargo arrives at a U.S. port. IndianXporter manages all FSMA paperwork including Supplier Verification Programs (FSVP), Foreign Supplier Verification, and FDA Facility Registration for each exporting unit. USDA-regulated products such as plant material and certain grains require USDA-APHIS phytosanitary clearance. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) mandates a valid Importer Security Filing (ISF/10+2) at least 24 hours before loading. We also support HS code classification, customs bond arrangements, and anti-dumping duty (ADD) disclosures where applicable. At IndianXporter, we ensure every batch of black gram exceeds the quality expectations of USA importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.

Before quoting USA buyers, we track the same factors that move global black gram FOB rates:
- India Kharif and Rabi crop outcome in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra — the primary supply driver
- Myanmar export pricing — a key alternative origin setting the bulk benchmark
- Pesticide MRL and organic compliance — clean and NPOP lots command premiums
- Diaspora festival demand cycles lifting branded urad dal volume
- USD/INR exchange rate — INR depreciation improves Indian FOB competitiveness
