Hello Sir,
Are you speaking about guar gum???
Guar gum, also called guaran, is a galactomannan. It is primarily the ground endosperm of guar beans. The guar seeds are dehusked, milled and screened to obtain the guar gum.[1] It is typically produced as a free-flowing, pale, off-white-colored, coarse to fine ground powder.
The guar bean is principally grown in India and Pakistan, with smaller crops grown in the US, Australia, China, and Africa. In India, Rajasthan and Haryana are the main producing regions, and Jodhpur in Rajasthan is a major Guar trading market.
In Pakistan Sindh is the main area for Production for GUAR Beans.

Hello sir
Guar gum comes from the endosperm of the seed of the legume plant Cyamopsis tetragonoloba; an annual plant, grown in dry regions of India as a food crop for animals. There are various grades of Guar gums pure or derivative.
Guar gum is a white to creamy coloured, free flowing powder and free from extraneous matter.
Its ability to suspend solids, bind water by hydrogen bonding, control the viscosity of aqueous solutions, form strong tough films have accounted for its rapid growth and use in various industries.
guar gum is used in paper, textile, oil drilling, mining, explosives, ore flotation and other various industrial applications.
The growing season of guar is 14 -16 weeks and requires reasonably warm weather and moderate flashing rainfall with plenty of sunshine.
Too much rain can cause the plant to become more 'leafy' resulting thereby reducing the number of pods or the number of seeds per pod which affects the size and yield of seeds. The crop is generally sown after the monsoon rainfall in the second half of July to early August and is harvested in late October early November.
The Guar is a naturally rain fed crop.
Depending on the monsoon rainfall the total size of Guar crop varies from year to year. After harvesting, when the pods become dry through sunlight, they are beaten off and during this process, the seeds come out of the pods.
