Market Report I 2025-04-28 I 133 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
The Dry Beans Market size is estimated at USD 7.69 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 10.01 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
The global dry beans market is experiencing significant growth owing to rising consumption demand, and this trend is anticipated to continue over the forecast period. Dry beans, which are large seeds from the Fabaceae family, are a staple crop worldwide. The market encompasses various classes, including kidney beans, navy beans, pinto beans, and black beans.
A key driver of market growth is the increasing use of dried beans, such as black beans and split beans, in processed food products like savory snacks and baby food. The rising demand for ready-to-eat and ready-to-cook food products, particularly in developed regions, coupled with the growing preference for vegan protein sources, is significantly boosting dry bean consumption. In response, farmers are increasing production.
Dry beans are a vital agricultural crop in several countries with high consumption levels. Major producers include Brazil, India, China, Myanmar, and Mexico. According to the FAO, India leads dry bean production globally, producing approximately 6,120 thousand metric tons in 2021, which increased to 6,610 thousand metric tons in 2022.
Despite the market's growth, several challenges exist. Environmental factors such as climate change, bio-stress, and policy constraints can significantly affect production levels. However, increasing global demand, expanding applications, and rising health awareness continue to support the market's growth.
Dry Beans Market Trends
Increasing Inclination Toward Vegan Diet
Food consumption patterns are evolving rapidly, with a notable increase in vegan and plant-based diets. In recent years, the number of people adopting non-meat diets has increased, driving significant growth in the dry beans market. Dry beans, rich in essential micronutrients like potassium, magnesium, folate, iron, and zinc, and an excellent source of plant-based protein, have become a key component of vegan nutrition.
The trend of veganism has gained momentum, particularly in Europe and the United States, and is spreading globally. According to the United Nations database, approximately 80 million people worldwide identified as vegans in 2022, and this number continues to grow. This shift has increased demand for crops like dry beans, which align with vegan and health-conscious lifestyles.
Veganism is expanding rapidly in Europe, with many consumers transitioning to plant-based diets. Vegans avoid all animal-derived products, opting for foods like vegetables, fruits, pulses, seeds, and grains. Data from Food Ingredients Europe shows that sales of plant-based foods in 13 European countries grew by 6% in 2022, reaching USD 6.11 billion. Mung beans, traditionally used in ethnic cuisines, are now gaining popularity as a versatile ingredient in vegan and health-focused foods. Their high nutrient density, including vitamin B9, potassium, magnesium, dietary fiber, and essential amino acids, makes them valuable for plant-based diets.
Increasing awareness of the environmental and health benefits of plant-based diets is driving a shift toward vegan, vegetarian, and flexitarian lifestyles. Plant-based protein sources like dry beans are preferred over animal protein, which is often associated with high cholesterol, unhealthy fats, and an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and obesity. Consumers are also motivated by the lower environmental impact of plant-based diets, further increasing the demand for dry beans and other legumes.
As the market for plant-based foods continues to grow, dry beans are emerging as an important ingredient in vegan meal solutions, snacks, and health-focused products. Their versatility, affordability, and nutrient profile position them as an essential component of the evolving food landscape, catering to the increasing demand for sustainable and healthy eating options.
Expanding Bean Cultivation in Asia Pacific to Drive Market Growth.
Asia Pacific is likely to hold a significant share of the global dried bean market. The growing area under the cultivation of beans is anticipated to be a favorable factor for market growth within the region.The country has expanded its production tremendously over the past 4 years. According to FAO statistics, the domestic production of dry beans in India, in 2020 was around 5,460.0 thousand metric tons, which increased and reached 6,610 thousand metric tons in 2022. The other producers include Myanmar with 2,663.3 thousand metric tons, and China with 1,296.3 thousand metric tons of production volume in 2022. Dry beans are majorly grown in the Indian states, including Gujarat, Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh.
Furthermore, one of the principal factors responsible for the highest production of beans in Asia is the need to use land instead of keeping it idle after rice cultivation. Beans can be planted at the beginning of the winter season and can thrive on the leftover moisture of the rainy season, as they do not require additional artificial irrigation facilities in the absence of rain, which makes the cultivation cost-effective with no additional allocation of resources required for cultivation. Thus, the growth of the region is being primarily driven by the presence of the agri-land suitable to cultivate dry beans in the Asia major countries, which will drive the market growth during the forecast period.
