Khomein’s ecological, farming and strategic role in the pinto bean chain
Khomein County on the southern belt of Markazi Province is a historic hub for legume production, processing, mechanized sorting and trade—especially pinto beans. The Khomein plain’s elevation, fertile soil and day–night temperature swing sustain cooking quality, creamy texture and desirable sizing.
The Khomein Bean Research & Education Campus is Iran’s sole dedicated bean R&D centre, releasing varieties such as Koosha and Ghaffar for semi-arid climates. Drip-tape adoption in Kafsan, Mishijan, Hamzehlu, Ashnakhur and Ghurchi-Bashi farms has cut irrigation volume by roughly one-third.
Beyond local harvest, Khomein pulls raw beans from Azna, Aligudarz, Khondab and Shazand into advanced cleaning and sorting lines for final preparation—acting as a regional intake and processing gate before national trade.

Convergence with canning industry
Hand-picked Khomein pinto sizes 8–9 keeps skin integrity in retorts. Golbarg Kourosh (Famila) sources beans from the Kourosh Khomein site; Mahalat (Tak) and Negar Dane / Sorena (Proviala) complete value-add in the county.
Bulk trade, pricing and exports
Khomein hand-picked and cleaned prices anchor national reports at Tehran’s Omid Sarai and Molavi wholesale. Khomein traders and houses such as Kimia Beans, Fater Tejarat and Daria move 20–40 kg lots to southern ports and western borders. Sorted export continues to Kuwait, UAE, Iraq and diaspora markets with phytosanitary and halal canned lines.
Khomein has shifted from farm supplier to an industrial–export plant-protein hub; Kourosh–Famila vertical integration is the reference model.
Mid-term outlook and challenges
- Groundwater swings and small-workshop raw sales remain the top risks.
- Short-cycle seed from Negin Bazr and drip tape stabilise farm output.
- Electronic sort at workshops and canned diversification keep value-add in Khomein.
