Centre, Spices Board to popularise health benefits of spices abroad
Hoang Thi Lien, Executive Director, International Pepper Community, Indonesia, has said that India is the only country which is part of the International Pepper Community that has been contributing well to the export of value-added pepper products.
Delivering the keynote address at the international symposium on spices organised by the Indian Society for Spices, she said though the country produced 60,000 metric tonnes of pepper, it also imported over 24,000 metric tonnes, as value-added products are given thrust.
D. Sathiyan, Secretary, Spices Board, also stressed the scope of value-addition for improving spices export. According to him, value-added spice products contribute 51% of the total spice export from the country.
