Chickpea is an important legume crop in India and Myanmar. Production remained stagnant in both countries until 2000 (Period-I, II, and III) and increased late after 2010 (Period-IV and V). The highest productivity was recorded in 2018-19 (1041 kg/ha in India and 1478 kg/ha in Myanmar). The growth rate of chickpea in India was found to be the highest in period-IV (4.32% in area, 5.99% in production and 1.60% in yield). Similarly, the growth rate of chickpea in Myanmar was the highest in the period-IV (7.57% in area, 13.59% in production, and 5.60% in yield) due to promotion of export markets, favorable prices in the domestic market and partly due to research and development in Department of Agricultural Research (DAR). Myanmar’s instability performance was higher than that of India in all decades except 2010-19. In the case of the import-export scenario, India is now producing sufficiently in domestic production while s, till the chickpea imports, are for processing and value-added products. Myanmar has exported chickpea to the rest of the world especially India (80%), Malaysia, Pakistan, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. The growth rate of chickpea exports in India increased in the period 1988-2008 (79.33% in terms of quantity and 94.14% in terms of value) as the growth rate of imports was also increasing in the same period (15.97% in terms of quantity and 21.88% in terms of value). The growth rate of chickpea exports in Myanmar showed a decrease in all periods (-4.4%, - 0.52% and -4.95%).
