Pigeon pea/ Red gram (Cajanus cajan) is also considered a hardy crop among pulses. It is known for its resilience to drought and can thrive in poor soil conditions, which makes it suitable for semi-arid and rainfed areas. Pigeon pea’s deep root system allows it to access moisture and nutrients from deeper soil layers, enabling it to survive in challenging environments. This hardiness makes it an important crop in regions with limited water resources.
