Pulses are the primary source of protein for the poor and the vegetarians. Karnataka is one of the important pulse growing states in the country. The supply response of selected pulse crops were computed for a period of 41 years from 1975 to 2016 for the Karnataka state as a whole. Growth in production of total pulses increased significantly over the study period (1975-76 to 2015-16) at national level. At the national level, the growth in production of all the pulses was maximum while it was minimum in case of yield indicating contribution of area to the increase in production of pulses.At the state level the growth in production of redgram, bengalgram and total pulses increased significantly in post- TMOP mainly due to considerable increase in the area in recent years. In the case of total pulses, the growth rates in area, yield and production were positive and significant for overall period in Kalaburagi, Ballari, Karnataka and country as a whole. Among the pulses, redgram and bengalgram were the most common pulses grown in the state to meet the consumption requirement of people.
