Let's give them a big hand!

By: Sheikh Gulzaar

Srinagar:Against the previous records of Rs. 4,435 crore (US$ 1billion) in 2007-08, the export has touched an all-time high of Rs.5,300 crore (US$1.17 billion) in 2008-09. The volume exported has also grown significantly-from the previous figure of 4,00,000 tonnes to 4,70,520 tonnes. An increase of 6 per cent in terms of both volume and dollar value, and 19 per cent in rupees terms. No mean achievement, specially in the face of the global recession.

Processed spices like Saffron cashmiriana, curry powder, mint powder, ginkgo biloba powder, spices oils/oleoresin and blended spices account for an impressive 58 percent of total exports.

It also reflects the importers' faith in the industry's commitment to quality, safety and competitiveness of Spices.
