Guar gum is used in the food and bakery industry since a good number of food stuffs and food related product compositions require the usage of colloids to alter the behavior of water compared to other components. The guar gum is an effective stabilizer, binder, thickener and water proofing agent in various food products.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"sector-wise-applications-of-guar-gum\"><\/span>Sector Wise Applications of Guar Gum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">The sector wise application of guar shows that the food industry consumes approximately 25 &#8211; 30 % of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/guar-gum-powder\"><strong><em>guar gum<\/em><\/strong><\/a> produced from India, 60% of the production is up taken by petroleum and mining industries while the remaining 10 \u2013 15% is up taken by the textile industry. Over 80% of the global guar production and export comes from India in the form of refined splits, gum powder and guar meals.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/guar-gum-powder.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1123 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/guar-gum-powder.jpg\" alt=\"guar gum powder from india\" width=\"674\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/guar-gum-powder.jpg 674w, https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/guar-gum-powder-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.altrafine.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/guar-gum-powder-500x280.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 674px) 100vw, 674px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"emerging-issues-and-constraints-related-to-guar-gum-powder\"><\/span>Emerging Issues and Constraints Related to Guar Gum Powder<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Production Technologies<\/b><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">There have been a number of technologies developed for improved production of the guar gum. These include improved seed varieties, better \/ improved planting methods, better agronomical practices, soil fertility management, moisture conservation and other quality aspects. It has been shown from research that adoption of line sowing method enhances grain yield by over 35%.<\/p>\n<p><b>Production in Non-Traditional Areas and Seasons<\/b><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Cultivation has now been transferred to regions where it was not done previously in India. These new areas have potential for better moisture conservation and have been able to produce over 1800kg\/ha of grain yield.<\/p>\n<p><b>Dissemination of Technology<\/b><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Most producers lack the knowledge of the emerging technologies in guar production and processing. This constraint is also attributed to lacking financial resources to access information.<\/p>\n<p><b>High Gum Content and Varied Viscosity Levels <\/b><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">There is little variation in the gum content among the various guar varieties which ranges from 29 &#8211; 30% only. There is need for this content to be increased to about 35% which will increase the guar gum yield and the ultimate profitability of the crop. This can be achieved through more biotechnological research aimed at acceleration of gum content and viscosity.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o_6vq7fjkG0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"constraints-and-development-opportunities-of-guar-gum\"><\/span>Constraints and Development Opportunities of Guar Gum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Growth period:<\/b> Currently, the available varieties of guar gum mature in 90 days.
