Production & Sourcing

Harvesting: When the chickpea pods reach maturity, they are carefully harvested from the plants. This can be done by hand or using mechanical equipment, depending on the scale of cultivation.

Drying: After harvesting, the chickpea pods are often dried to reduce their moisture content. This helps prevent spoilage during storage.

Shelling: The dried chickpea pods are then shelled to remove the seeds. This can be done manually or using machinery to separate the seeds from the pods.

Cleaning: The separated chickpea seeds are cleaned to remove any dirt, debris, or foreign particles. This ensures that only clean seeds move forward in the process.
