Pineapple

Assam’s Giant Kew pineapple is GI-tagged and is produced for domestic and export markets. Opportunities include juice processing and organic exports to international markets, which can contribute to rural economic development.

Renowned for its juicy, golden Giant Kew variety, Assam is a major pineapple-producing state in India, particularly in areas such as Karbi Anglong, producing tangy fruits suitable for fresh consumption and processing. The state’s subtropical climate supports pineapple cultivation, with opportunities to supply domestic and international markets, including Japan and the Middle East. Fiscal support for the sector may include applicable export incentives and tax benefits, while import duties on certain pineapple products can support domestic producers. Non-fiscal measures include varietal registration under the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights (PPV&FR) Act and irradiation for quarantine compliance.
