About Green Gram

Moong is an incredibly fast-growing, heat-loving pulse. It acts as a perfect 'catch crop' on terraces between major seasons, ready in just 60 days. Selecting a synchronous-maturing hybrid is vital, so all pods can be harvested at once rather than picking them piecemeal over weeks.
