Tomato

Tomato

Assam grows hybrid tomatoes, with good potential for cultivation and supply to neighbouring states.. Opportunities exist in greenhouse cultivation and protected farming for off-season production and access to domestic and international markets.

Tomatoes in Assam are cultivated in districts such as Goalpara and Dibrugarh and contribute to the state’s fresh produce and food-processing sectors. Varieties suited to local agro-climatic conditions can support tomato production for fresh consumption and processed products such as salads and sauces. The crop supports seasonal and monsoon-adapted farming, while supplies from other parts of India can help meet demand during periods of production shortfalls. Assam has potential to expand tomato exports to neighbouring countries, subject to market and regulatory requirements. Key opportunities include protected cultivation to extend production seasons, processing into products such as ketchup and sauces, contract farming with agribusinesses, and investment in cold-chain infrastructure to reduce post-harvest losses and improve market access.
