What HS 0713.31 covers

This HS code specifically covers dried beans of the species Vigna mungo (urd beans or black gram) and Vigna radiata (mung beans), shelled, whether or not skinned or split. These legumes are incredibly important in South Asian cuisine, forming the basis of numerous dals, curries, and snacks. Mung beans are also widely used for sprouting. They are highly valued for their nutritional profile, including protein and dietary fiber. Myanmar, Australia, and China are significant exporters, while India is a primary importer and consumer, reflecting the strong cultural and dietary reliance on these beans. The trade is influenced by harvest yields in producing countries and consumer demand in importing regions, particularly within the Asian diaspora.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
