Oranges grown in Assam’s hill and semi hill regions are known for their taste and are widely used for fresh consumption and juice processing industries.

Orange cultivation in Assam supports the horticulture sector, particularly in hill districts where climatic conditions are suitable. The fruit is consumed fresh and also processed into juices, concentrates, marmalades, and beverages, supporting agro processing industries. Increasing demand for fruit based products is creating opportunities for value addition and organized supply chains. Key opportunities include juice processing units, cold chain development, branding, and export of fresh and processed citrus products.
