Products & Marketing

 
According to the Export Development Board, as of  2000, 15 organizations, both private and non government were responsible for exporting 753 metric tons of organic tea, spices, essential oils, cashew, desiccated coconut, dried fruits, vegetables and herbs valued at S.L. Rs. 543 million. (Vaheesan, 2002). Most of these organic products are exported to Europe, Japan and Australia. The organic directory published in 2006 states that the number of registered exporters had since risen to 29, non governmental and farmer organizations number 34, the number of certified estates number 20 and there are 177 independent growers who come under the umbrella of the Department of Export Agriculture. (Organic Directory, 2005)
