Summary, etc. |
Mungbean, Vigna radiata var. radiata Wilczek is one of the important food legume crop in South Asia and the Middle-East. As of 2003, the total area planted to the crop in the world is nearly 27 mil1ion ha with a production of 18 million t with an average yield of 700 kg/ha. The traditional mungbean cultivars were indeterminate with long growth duration (> 90 days maturity) and susceptible to diseases. Mungbeans have 20 percent protein, easily digestible carbohydrate and 6 mg iron/100 gm. The World Vegetable Center commenced its research to improve mungbeans since 1973. The research focus was to improve yield (> 2 t/ha), reduce maturity duration (60 to 70 days), have wide adaptation, and incorporate resistance to Cercospora leaf spot, powdery mildew, Mungbean Yellow Mosaic Virus (MYMV) and bruchids. A VRDC has one of the largest mungbean col1ections in the world (5,658). We have identified sources of resistance to various diseases and insects. Initially the Center developed synchronously maturing improved cultivars such as VC 1973A and VC 2768A. At present almost al1 the mungbeans that are cultivated in Southeast Asia are from the World Vegetable Center. In 1990, A VRDC collaborated with Pakistan and developed MYMV resistant short duration mungbeans. Currently these 60 to 65 days mungbeans are planted in about a million hectares in Bangladesh and India. Compared to 40,000 ha in 1980-81 with a yield of 300 kg/ha in Myanmar, in 2000 the mungbean area increased to 900,000 ha with an average yield of 700 kg/ha. Similarly in China, the average yield of mungbean in 1957 was 490 kg/ha but today with the introduction of the Center's improved cu1tivars, the average yield increased to 1,100 kg/ha. The highest yield recorded with the Center's cultivar in China was 4,500 kg/ha. The economic benefit due to the World Vegetable Center's mungbean in China, Myanmar, Pakistan and Thailand has been estimated to be 98, 27,20 and 17 million US$ respectively. As a legume, mungbean helps to diversify the cereal cropping system. As an additional crop, it improves the income of the farmer. Since mungbean has protein and iron, it improves the nutrition of the people. The World Vegetable Center will provide seeds upon request, for those who are interested in evaluating the improved cultivars for release to their fanners. |
