About Chana Dal (Whole Chickpea)
Desi chana is Indiaโs largest pulse crop by volume and the raw material behind chana dal, besan flour and a large part of the subcontinental retail trade. RNG Agro Exports sources whole desi chickpea from Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan during the rabi arrival window, when moisture and grain fill are most consistent, and supplies milling, retail and bold-calibre grades.
Why buyers choose RNG Agro Exports as their Desi Chana exporter in India
Weevil damage and admixture are the two rejection risks on chana, and both are addressed before packing: lots are machine cleaned, size graded, sortex sorted and fumigated under supervision. Each consignment ships with a Certificate of Analysis covering moisture, purity, damaged percentage and pesticide residues, and SGS or Intertek pre-shipment inspection is arranged on nomination.
