Since the implementation of the 'Production, Storage and Distribution of Quality Seeds of Pulses, Oils and Spices at Farmers Level Project' by the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) in 2018, farmers in Rangpur, Bangladesh, have seen a surge in the cultivation and production of seven spicy crops, including onion, garlic, coriander, ginger, turmeric, black cumin, and chili. The region now produces over 1.70 lakh tonnes of these crops annually, a significant increase from the 1.51 lakh tonnes produced in the 2013-2014 season.
