The article highlights the efforts of the Indian Spice Board to enhance the quality and production of cardamom, aiming to boost exports. This initiative is driven by the rising demand for Indian spices in the post-pandemic era and the increasing food safety standards of western countries. The quality control measures are designed to meet the strict food safety regulations of industrialized nations, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada, which are the primary importers of Indian spices. These countries have specific requirements for spices to be free from bacterial contamination, mold, mycotoxins, harmful chemicals, and other impurities, to ensure food safety and quality.
