India Considers Import Duties to Stabilize Pulse Prices

The Indian government is thinking about making imported beans and lentils more expensive.

This is because the price of these foods in India has gone down.

They're looking at adding taxes to imports of yellow peas and other pulses.

This is to help farmers and keep prices stable.

Farmers are worried that cheaper imports are hurting them.

Some people want the government to put a tax back on yellow peas, like they had before.

India imports a lot of pulses, and the government wants to balance keeping prices low with helping local farmers.
