India's banana export is expected to continue its growth this year in

terms of volume as well as value. A total of 1.91 lakh tonne worth
Rs 619 crore has been exported so far, the Ministry of Commerce
and Industry

The latest figure shows an increase in export of 1.34 lakh metric

tonne banana (valued at Rs 413 crore) in 2018-19. India exported
1.95 lakh metric tonne banana valued at Rs 660 crore in 2019-20.

"India's banana export has been rising sharply because of adoption

of farm practices as per the global standards,"

India is the world's leading producer of bananas with a share of

around 25 per cent in total output. Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil
Nadu, Maharashtra, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Madhya
Pradesh contribute more than 70 per cent of the country's banana
production.

Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export and

Development Authority (APEDA) promotes exports of agricultural
and processed food products by providing assistance to the
exporters under various components of its scheme such as
Infrastructure Development, Quality Development and Market
Development.

In addition, APEDA also conducts international Buyer Seller

Meets, Virtual trade fairs with importing countries to promote
agricultural and processed food products.
Apart from this the Department of Commerce also supports
exports through various schemes like Trade Infrastructure for
Export Scheme, Market Access Initiative, etc.

In a major boost to exports of Geographical Indications (GI)

certified agricultural produce, a consignment of fibre and mineral
rich 'Jalgaon banana' has been exported to Dubai, said the
statement.

"The twenty-two metric tonnes of GI certified Jalgaon banana were

sourced from progressive farmers of Tandalwadi village, part of
Jalgaon district of Maharashtra, a banana cluster identified under
Agri Export Policy,"

In 2016, Jalgaon Banana got GI certification which was registered
