Summary:

APEDA, part of the Commerce Department, is expanding India's agricultural exports through infrastructure, quality, and market development initiatives. The Agriculture and Processed Foods Export Promotion Scheme provides financial assistance for packhouses, refrigerated transportation, and pre-shipment preparation. It also supports lab testing, traceability, and trade show participation. As a result, India's fruit and vegetable exports have grown by 47.3% in volume and 41.5% in value over the past five years.

India's fruit and vegetable exports now reach 123 countries, with 17 new markets established in the last three years, including Brazil, Uganda, and the Czech Republic. Indian potatoes and onions have gained access to Serbia, while pomegranates are now exported to Australia, the United States, and New Zealand. To address high logistics costs and stringent import regulations, APEDA and MoA&FW are improving market negotiations, maritime protocols, and traceability systems.
