Barley

Barley

Barley from Assam is used in food, beverages, animal feed, and health products, offering growing potential in malt, flour, and functional food markets.

Barley is gaining importance in Assam as a multi-purpose grain for malt production, flour, breakfast foods, soups, health drinks, and livestock feed. With rising demand for fibre-rich and heart-healthy foods, barley-based products are increasingly preferred in urban and institutional markets. Processing units for cleaning, pearling, malting, and packaging enable Assam to participate in national and export value chains.Barley and its processed products fall under relevant GST categories, while exports are zero-rated and may be eligible for RoDTEP incentives. Imports of malting, milling, and packaging machinery may involve customs duties, with benefits available under agro-processing schemes.
