India paid the most for kidney beans in Q2 2026: USD 1.28/KG, up 5.8% from USD 1.21 in Q1.
Kidney beans are a dry pulse crop grown across a range of climates, sold as dark red, light red, and canned product depending on variety and processing. The United States, particularly Michigan and North Dakota, is a major dark red kidney bean growing region alongside significant production in China, India, and Myanmar.
As a dry, storable commodity, kidney beans trade more like a grain than a fresh vegetable, with harvest yields, carryover stocks, and export demand setting prices over a longer cycle than fresh produce.
India is both a major producer and the largest global importer of pulses generally, and Indian import demand has an outsized effect on pricing across all the exporting regions in this report.
The spread between the cheapest and priciest markets tracked here, Myanmar and India, ran to roughly 29% in Q2 2026. That gap matters for procurement teams weighing sourcing origin against landed cost, since freight, duties, and local demand intensity all feed into where a given region ultimately lands.
Expect steady gains through H2 2026 across all four markets as Indian import demand continues supporting global pricing.
Myanmar should retain its position as the most competitively priced origin given its established export relationship with Indian buyers.
Any shift in Indian domestic harvest yields would be the key variable to watch, given the country's outsized role in global pulse trade.
Across all 4 regions combined, prices moved 5.1% increase on average between Q1 and Q2 2026. Absent a meaningful change to the cost or demand drivers outlined above, that pace looks set to carry into the second half of the year.

Regional pricing spans from Myanmar at the low end to India at the high end among the 4 markets tracked here. That range comes down mainly to production cost structure, import reliance, and how tight local demand is running, all of which can shift the ranking over time.
Indian import demand, the single largest swing factor given India's role as the largest global pulse importer; Regional harvest yields and growing season weather across all four producing regions; Carryover stock levels from the prior season, along with broader macroeconomic conditions across the 4 regions this report tracks.

The United States, particularly Michigan and North Dakota, is a major dark red kidney bean growing region alongside significant production in China, India, and Myanmar.
