The Ministry of Commerce has announced that India has exported 22 tonnes of Geographical Indications (GI) certified fiber and mineral-rich Jalgaon banana to Dubai.
This marks a major boost to exports of Geographical Indications (GI) certified agricultural produce from India.
The Jalgaon district of Maharashtra, got GI certification for their Jalgaon banana in 2016.
The GI tag helps farmers to get the premium price for their product as no other producer can misuse the name to market similar goods.
