Government has said that Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority, APEDA is supporting farmers to explore new markets for natural honey exports. Commerce and Industry Ministry said, the authority has been giving thrust on boosting exports through ensuring quality production and market expansion to newer countries.
At present, India’s natural honey exports are majorly dependent on one market – the United States, which accounts for more than 80 per cent of the exports. APEDA has been facilitating honey producers in accessing export markets besides availing government assistance under different schemes, quality certification and lab testing.
