Guar Production in Texas & SW Oklahoma
Guar Production in Texas & SW Oklahoma Calvin Trostle, Ph.D. Extension Agronomy, Texas A&M AgriLife—Lubbock (806) 746-6101, [email protected] Updated April 2020 Why Guar? Why Now? Guar gum is highly valuable and sought after as an ingredient from small quantities in numerous food products to large scale uses in oil field services (e.g., a component of frac fluids) ◉ Desirable viscosity, a carrier for materials into deep wells, “cleans out” relative well (no residues remaining) About this information… The information provided is a collection of field observations, limited research, and the input from several farmers and processor staff It is generally relevant for the Texas South Plains and Rolling plains, but it generally applicable as well in southwest Oklahoma and eastern New Mexico (info. is also generally relevant for the Texas Coastal Bend and Lower Rio Grande Valley where there has been limited production in the past). Guar is not well adapted to humid regions of Central Texas, for example, the I-35 corridor due to higher humidity and rainfall which fosters much more disease pressure than normally observed in the HP & RP. The Value of U.S. Guar Gum Imports According to the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service, in 2011 in the Port of Houston (Texas) guar gum imports were ~225,000 metric tons (80% of U.S. total). At historical guar gum prices of $2 to $3/lb., this translates to an import value of $1.0-1.5 billion This represents about 2.3 million acres of production (at 800 lbs./acre, which is an average yield in the U.S., but double the average yield in India).

GUAR GUM Chemical and Technical Assessment
GUAR GUM Chemical and Technical Assessment Prepared by Yoko Kawamura, Ph.D., for the 69th JECFA 1. Summary Guar gum is mainly consisting of the high molecular weight (approximately 50,000-8,000,000) polysaccharides composed of galactomannans and is obtained from the endosperm of the seed of the guar plant, Cyamopsis tetragonaloba (L) Taub. (syn. Cyamopsis psoraloides). It is used as thickener, stabilizer and emulsifier, and approved in most areas of the world (e.g. EU, USA, Japan, and Australia). Guar gum were evaluated and ADI “not specified” was allocated at 19th JECFA (1975) and their specifications were prepared at 17th JECFA (1973) and published in FNP 4 (1978) and republished in FNP 52 “Compendium of food additive specification”. They were reviewed at 44th and 53rd JECFA, and their revised specifications were published in FNP 52 Add 3 and 7, and republished in FAO JECFA Monographs “Combined compendium of food additive specifications”. At 67th JECFA the Committee reviewed the specifications of “Guar gum” and noted that they were covered two grades of product. The Committee decided to prepare two specifications monographs, “Guar gum” and “Guar gum (clarified)”. Both monographs were designated tentative and published in FAO JECFA Monographs 3 (2006). Further information, data on gum content, solubility in water and a test method for methanol and isopropanol as residual solvents using capillary gas chromatography were requested before the end of 2007. 2. Description Guar gum, also known as Gum cyamopsis or guar flour, is derived from the ground endosperm of the seed of the guar plant, Cyamopsis tetragonaloba (L) Taub.

Texas Agricultural Extension Service the Texas A&M University System
Texas Agricultural Extension Service The Texas A&M University System Guar Production Factsheet for West Texas Calvin Trostle, Extension Agronomy, Texas A&MCLubbock (806) 746-6101; [email protected] March 22, 2001 Contract guar acreage in the Texas South Plains and surrounding areas for 2000 was about 30,000 acres. Most acreage in 2000 was concentrated in Terry county (close to a contractor) and west Dawson County and far east Gaines County (after hailed-out cotton in early July). Past Production: In the last 20 years 15,000 to 40,000 A of guar has been grown in the Vernon, TX, area with some across the Red River in Oklahoma. There is one processing plant for field guar in the U.S., Rhodia, Inc., in Vernon (940.553.2058) although they mostly process guar endosperm from India and Pakistan. Uses: Guar primarily is processed for its galactomannom (or mannogalactan) gum which is extracted and widely used as a stabilizer and smoother in ice cream and other frozen desserts. Industrial uses include paper manufacture and especially as a frac gel in drilling muds. The guar meal following extraction is good high-protein feed, but as a hay or forage guar appears inferior to many other legumes. Background Information: Guar is also known as cluster bean or guar bean though it is not a true member of the bean family. It does very well in droughty conditions, and in spite of limited soil moisture and rainfall achieved good yields in 1999. Guar is probably the most drought tolerant crop grown on the South Plains.

See the published version at https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-021-15968-y. Page 1/14 Abstract Phytoremediation is a strategy to employ plants to recover high quantities of metals in the soil into the harvestable parts, such as shoots and roots. High levels of Cd and lead (Pb) in the soil cause several stress symptoms in plants, including a decrease in growth, reduced root growth, and carbohydrate metabolism. In this study, Saravan and HGS-867 as local landrace and Indian guar variety were selected to investigate the effect of the application of Pb (0, 40, 150, and 200 mg/l) and the cadmium (0, 25, 50, and 100 mg/l) on phonological, yield parameters and phytoremediation assessment. The results showed that Pb translocation factor (TF) was signicant in Pb×Cd and Pb×Cd×G (genotype) treatments at 1% and in Pb×G at 5%. Pb bioconcentration factor (BCF) was signicant in all treatments except Cd and Cd×G at 1%.

Impacts of Some Biostimulants on Guar (Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba L.) Plants Safaa R
El-Lethy et al. Bulletin of the National Research Centre (2019) 43:169 Bulletin of the National https://doi.org/10.1186/s42269-019-0196-5 Research Centre RESEARCH Open Access Impacts of some biostimulants on guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) plants Safaa R. El-Lethy* , Iman M. Talaat, Shahira A. Tarraf and Abdalla El Moursi Abstract Background: Guar is an economic crop due to guar gum which is extracted from seeds and is used in several industries such as food, ink, plastics, pharmaceutical industry, and cosmetics. It can also be used as a cover crop, animal feed, and green manure. L-Tryptophan (L-β-3-indolylalanine) is a precursor of auxin which regulates plant growth and development. Nicotinamide is known as the amide form of vitamin B3. It is a constituent of the pyridine nucleotide coenzymes involved in many enzymatic oxidation-reduction reactions in cells. L-Tryptophan and nicotinamide are used in this study in order to improve guar growth, yield, and chemical constituents of seeds. Results: The highest records of plant height and fresh and dry weights of leaves were recorded for plants treated with 300 mg/l nicotinamide followed by foliar treatment with 300 mg/l tryptophan. Fresh and dry weights of stems, number of pods/plant, fresh and dry weights of pods, pods yield, seeds yield, and straw yield followed the same trend. Total protein in guar seeds was significantly increased due to foliar treatment with tryptophan, especially in plants treated with 300 mg/l tryptophan, followed by plants treated with 300 mg/l nicotinamide. Total carbohydrates (mg/g dry wt.), total soluble sugars (mg/g dry wt.), total insoluble sugars (mg/g dry wt.), proline (μmol/g dry wt.), and total phenolic compounds (mg/g dry wt.) in the leaves followed the same trend.

Guar—Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.1 James M
HS608 Guar—Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.1 James M. Stephens2 Guar, also called cluster bean because of the manner in which its pods are clustered together, was formerly referred to as C. psoralioides. Guar is a native plant of India, where it is grown principally for its green fodder and for the pods that are used for food and feed. It has soil-enriching properties since it is a legume. According to the American Society of Agronomy, the primary importance of guar is the commercial value of its seed gum (galactomannan gum). This gum has a wide variety of food and non-food uses. Guar was introduced into the United States from India in 1903. Production in the United States is centered in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arizona, but it is also adapted to locations with more tropical climates, such as in Florida and Puerto Rico. However, very little information is available on the use of this crop in Florida. Description Figure 1. Guar Guar is a coarse, upright, bushy, drought-resistant summer Credits: Info-farmer annual, ranging from 2–9 feet in height. It has pointed, saw-toothed, trifoliate leaves, small purplish flowers borne Culture along the axis of a spikelet, and hairy pods 3–4 inches long Guar is sensitive to cold, so should be grown during the in clusters. There are both dwarf and tall cultivars. warm season. A soil temperature of 70°F is necessary for seed germination. Guar has an indeterminate growth habit, Guar flowers are self-pollinating. A mature unopened bud growing both vegetatively and setting pods from about 4–6 starts out white and then changes to a light pink as petals weeks following seedling emergence until death of the plant begin to open.
