Description
- Origin: Green peas (Vatana) are cultivated across several Indian states, with Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Punjab being the primary production hubs. The planting season for green peas is typically from October to November, with harvesting from January to March. For dried peas, the crop is matured longer on the plant and then sun-dried post-harvest. Indian green peas are favored for their natural sweetness, uniform size, and excellent cooking quality.
- Distribution: Green Peas (Vatana) are distributed through a well-established network of mandis (agriculture markets), wholesalers, kirana stores, supermarkets, and online grocery platforms like BigBasket, Jiomart, and Amazon India. Processed and branded peas are sold by major FMCG brands such as Safal, Mother Dairy, Fortune, and Organic India. Internationally, dried and frozen peas are distributed via ethnic food importers, restaurant supply chains, supermarket brands, and online platforms like iHerb, Walmart, Amazon, and Indian grocery e-commerce stores. Proper cold storage logistics are used for frozen peas, while dried peas require moisture-proof, airtight packaging during transit.
