ndia is rightly called as “the home of spices” as it produces and exports almost all the spices except some leaf spices and herbs.
Apart from major spices like pepper, ginger, turmeric, cardamom, cumin, celery seed, chilli, fenugreek and clove, many minor spices are grown in India. Totally about 52 kinds of different spices are grown .

The importing countries are particular about standards relating to safety and hygiene
