Quality Indian fruits have a huge scope abroad

Bananas used to be exported to Russia from Ecuador in South America for many years. But the military material given by Russia was given to America by that country. Naturally, Russia got angry and stopped the import of bananas. The quality and taste of Indian fruit is good. Therefore, along with bananas, Russia is also importing fruits such as papaya, guava, mango, and pineapple. Every year grapes are exported from Nashik district to Europe from December to April. Approximately two lakh tonnes of grapes are exported to Europe and America. At present, however, the Gulf war has caused a crisis in the export of grapes from Nashik. Overall, there is a huge demand for Indian fruits in Europe and America as well as in Russia. Large quantities of bananas are produced from Jalgaon, oranges from Nagpur, mangoes from Konkan region, grapes from Nashik and Sangli districts, and pomegranates from Solapur Sangola region. If the quality is right, it can fetch a good price. This export needs the support of the government. Overall, the farmers  should take advantage of the huge demand for Indian fruits in many countries.
