India's Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) has approved the first export of pomegranates from Mumbai to Melbourne, Australia.

The 1.1 metric tonne consignment was irradiated as per the agreed work plan. This successful export opens up a new market for Indian farmers and gives them a significant boost in income. Australia granted market access to Indian pomegranates in 2020, and a work plan was signed in February 2024 to expedite the export of the fruit to Australia.

In the fiscal year 2023-24, India exported 72,011 metric tonnes of pomegranates worth $69.08 million.
