About Green Gram / Mung Bean
Green Gram (Vigna radiata), known across India as Moong, is a small, bright-green, oval pulse and one of the most versatile and digestible legumes in global trade. It is sold both as whole green moong — used for sprouting, salads and whole-dal cooking — and as the yellow split-and-dehusked Moong Dal that cooks quickly into a light, easily digestible dal. Carrying 23–25% protein and exceptionally easy to digest, moong is the pulse most associated with health, detox diets and the plant-protein movement.
India is the world's largest producer of green gram, growing 2.5–3 million MT annually across Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh, as both a Kharif and summer (zaid) crop. Moong is uniquely multi-form in its end uses: whole bean for sprouts, split dal for cooking, dehusked flour for papad and the fast-growing market for mung-bean protein isolate used in plant-based eggs and meat alternatives. This breadth of application drives demand well beyond the traditional diaspora staple market.
Globally, green gram trades as whole green moong (sprouting and machine-cleaned grades), split yellow moong dal (polished and unpolished), and dehusked / flour grades. Export quality is defined by green colour brightness, bean size, sortex purity and germination rate for sprouting buyers. India differentiates on bright bold-seeded grades, high germination rates and diaspora trust against rival origins such as Myanmar, Australia and China.
Compliance & Quality Standards for Japan
Japan maintains some of the world's most stringent food safety and residue standards, enforced by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) under the Food Sanitation Act. All food imports are subject to inspection by Japan's quarantine stations and must comply with Japan's Positive List system for agricultural chemical residues, which sets MRLs far more stringent than Codex standards for many substances. IndianXporter coordinates pre-shipment residue testing at NABL-accredited or Japan-approved laboratories and provides detailed pesticide use records to support Japanese customs clearance. The Japan Agricultural Standards (JAS) label is required for organic products. Plant products require phytosanitary certification from India's NPPO and may be subject to pest risk assessment under Japan's Plant Protection Law. Japanese buyers typically request detailed COA per lot, microbiological test reports, and allergen declarations in Japanese, which IndianXporter can coordinate. At IndianXporter, we ensure every batch of green gram / mung bean exceeds the quality expectations of Japan importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.
