Leafy Vegetable Harvesting (Chick Pea):
Hi Friends,
The chickpea or chick pea (Cicer arietinum) is an annual legume of the family Fabaceae, subfamily Faboideae, cultivated for its edible seeds. Its different types are variously known as gram or Bengal gram; chhola, chhana, chana, or channa; garbanzo or garbanzo bean; or Egyptian pea. It is one of the earliest cultivated legumes, the oldest archaeological evidence of which was found in Syria.
Chickpeas are high in protein. The chickpea is a key ingredient in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, used in hummus, and, when soaked and coarsely ground with herbs and spices then made into patties and fried, falafel. As an important part of Indian cuisine, it is used in salads, soups and stews, and curry, in chana masala, and in other food products that contain channa (chickpeas). In 2022, India accounted for 75% of global chickpea production.
Here the farmer was harvesting twigs of chick peas. Such twigs are eaten as leafy vegetable which is very tasty and loved by the Bengali people. New shoots come out from the plants after few days. Generally, this farmer used to harvest 5-6 times from the same field. It’s quite profitable to cultivate such leafy vegetable. The farmer also cultivates other vegetables like amaranths, cabbage, cauliflower, tomato, etc.
Cutting twigs of Bengal gram or chick pea plants is called nipping. Nipping results more branches and ultimately increases yield too.
