Finger millet from Assam is processed into flour, health foods, snacks, and baby foods, catering to nutrition-focused domestic and export markets.
Finger millet is valued for its high calcium, iron, and dietary fibre content. In Assam, it is processed into ragi flour, malt, health mixes, biscuits, extruded snacks, and infant foods, meeting the growing demand for traditional, nutritious, and gluten-free products. Value addition through cleaning, roasting, milling, and packaging supports farmer incomes and reduces post-harvest losses.Millet-based products such as ragi fall under applicable GST rates, while exports are zero-rated and may be eligible for RoDTEP benefits and government support under millet promotion initiatives.Proper packaging, traceability, and shelf-life testing improve acceptance in domestic and international markets.
