GI-tagged Assam Lemon yields 50,000 tons and is exported to the Middle East. Fiscal aspects include zero-duty benefits under FTAs, while non-fiscal requirements include phytosanitary protocols. Opportunities exist in essential oils and pickles.
The aromatic Assam Lemon, unique to the state’s acidic soils in Sivasagar, alongside Eureka varieties, produces 50,000 tons for juices and preserves. Exports are made to Gulf countries via Haldia Port. Fiscally, GST is applicable at 5%, with export promotion through the MAI Scheme; imports from Punjab face quotas. Non-fiscal measures include IPM for greening disease control. Key opportunities include aroma extraction for cosmetics (a $500 million market), organic certification for premium pricing, and agroforestry integration, potentially boosting exports by 30% and supporting 10,000 lemon growers.
