AGRICULTURAL EXPORT ZONE FOR GHERKINS

Being an export oriented industry, both the Centra! & State Governments have extended considerable support and encouragement to the gherkin industry.

A major initiative was the setting up of a separate "Agri Export Zone" for gherkins in Karnataka with a financial implication of USD 2.33 Millions.

Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA), under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India and Karnataka State Agricultural Produce Processing & Export Corporation Limited (KAPPEC) are the nodal agencies at the Central and State levels respectively for implementing the concept of Agri Export Zone.

At present in Karnataka, gherkins are being grown in an area of about 50,000 acres involving about 1.00.000 small and marginal farmers. The Indian Gherkin Exporters' Association (IGEA) closely work with all the stakeholders to make the industry more competitive in the global market.
