Guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba syn. C. psoralioides) is also known
as Cluster bean
It is an annual legume grown principally in India and Pakistan,
with smaller crops grown in the USA, Australia and Africa. The
most important growing area centres on Jodphur in Rajasthan,
India
Guar is drought-tolerant and can be eaten green like snap beans,
fed to cattle, or used as a green manure.
Guar beans have a large endosperm that contains galactomannan
gum, a substance which forms a gel in water. This is commonly
known as guar gum and is used in dairy products like ice cream
and as a Stabilizer in cheese and cold-meat processing. It can also
be used in industrial applications such as the paper and textile
industry, ore flotation or the manufacturing of explosives. Guar
gum has also proven a useful substitute for locust bean gum
(from carob).
The current demand for guar gum outstrips supply and guar is
being introduced into new growing areas. At this moment about
40% of the world production of guar gum comes from India

The largest market for guar gum (EU food
additive code E412) is in the food industry,
where guar gum is used as a Thickener and
binder of free water in sauces, salad dressings,
ice creams, instant noodles, pet foods,
processed meats, bread improvers and beverages
to name some.
Guar gum has very similar properties to locust
bean gum, which is extracted from the seeds of
the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua).
Demand for guar gum is still growing and the
production of guar bean has expanded to other
countries.
