Guar is basically a crop that is cultivated mostly in the arid and semi arid areas as it is drought resistant. That is why the Southern Asian continent suits well to the cultivation of this crop especially the Indian subcontinent. The powder made after refining the gum obtained from the plant makes an important raw material in many industries. This powder has some unique characteristics like grease resistance, thickening agent, capacity to bind water, high viscosity and the capability to function in low temperatures which makes it a highly popular in those sectors. Among other by- products of guar, guar gum powder is the main marketable commodity.
India has been a major player in the context of guar and guar gum in the global market.India’s production contributes to 80% of the world’s total production figuring up to 6 lakh tons.Rajasthan wholly retains the credit for India’s position producing 70% of the production itself.Guar is largely consumed as a vegetable in the Indian subcontinent.
