Haryana Receives 15.7 MT of Organic Pineapples from Mizoram

Mizoram sent 15.7 metric tonnes of organic pineapples to Sonipat in Haryana. Agriculture Minister C Lalrinsanga flagged off the shipment from Aizawl's Ch Saprawnga truck terminal. Tuichangral Organic FPC Limited harvested the pineapples in Mizoram's Khawzawl district.

Mizoram exported fresh pineapples to Dubai and Bahrain last month. Speaking on the occasion, Lalrinsanga stated that Mizoram grown vegetables and fruits are in high demand throughout the country.

He stated that the state's harvest should be increased in order to meet the demands of people living outside the state. He stated that pineapple exports to other states and foreign countries will provide a boost to the government and local farmers.

He encouraged farmers to increase their harvest in order to boost exports. Dr ZR Thiamsanga of the ruling Mizo National Front (MNF), who was present at the flag-off ceremony, stated that the government prioritises farmers.

He stated that a recent meeting of the Council of Ministers allowed locally grown grapes to be legally processed as wine and sold freely in markets.

Tuichangral Organic FPC Limited was founded in 2021 by 500 pineapple growers from 8 villages in Khawzawl district as part of the Mission Organic Mizoram Agriculture department.

Tuichangral Organic FPC has chosen Clover Organic Private Limited as its service provider. Surifresh Extract Private Limited of Sonipat purchased the pineapples that were flagged off on Thursday.
