Summary:

On June 3, 2026, the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority facilitated the first-ever sea shipment of ready-to-cook millet functional foods infused with botanicals from Karnataka to New Zealand, marking a significant milestone for India's millet export industry. Infini Agrotek LLP exported the one-ton shipment, which reflected the growing demand for novel millet-based cuisines around the world. By attending trade shows sponsored by APEDA, the company was able to contact with foreign buyers and get the export order. APEDA Chairman Abhishek Dev praised the accomplishment and urged more market growth. As sustainable, nutrientdense food products become more and more popular globally, the development spotlights expanding prospects for value-added agricultural exports, increases demand for millet cultivation, and supports farmers, processors, and exporters.
