The export of 500 kilograms of the renowned “Piyaji” variety of litchi marks the entry of Assam’s premium fruit into yet another international market. The development comes shortly after the successful export of Assam’s GI-tagged litchis to Dubai, highlighting the growing global demand for the State’s high-quality horticultural produce.
