GI-tagged Kalaburagi tur dal exported to Maldives

Tur dal from Kalaburagi, certified with a geographical indication, will be shipped to the Maldives. The export route is expected to raise farmer incomes, as the domestic price sits near ₹60 per kilogram while exporters pay about ₹82 per kilogram, according to the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority. The move aims to strengthen the value chain.
