Banana
Musa spp.
Declare cultivar, hand/finger presentation and maturity stage; ‘banana’ alone is not a complete export identity.
Agriculture & Organic Commodities
Fresh fruits knowledge centre
Fresh produce cannot be contracted responsibly through “premium” alone. The orchard lot, maturity, size method, defects, residues, treatment, packhouse and transit conditions belong together.
Living product, conditional shelf life
Shelf life is a validated program range dependent on harvest maturity, handling, packaging and temperature—not a permanent catalogue fact.
Musa spp.
Declare cultivar, hand/finger presentation and maturity stage; ‘banana’ alone is not a complete export identity.
Musa spp.
Nendran is a distinct cultivar/use program. Declare dessert or cooking use, maturity, presentation and provenance; a trial shipment does not establish continuous availability.
Vitis vinifera
A seedless table-grape program requires verified variety, berry/bunch sizing and destination residue-monitoring alignment.
Psidium guajava
Declare cultivar, flesh colour, maturity and count/size; these determine firmness, flavour and transit tolerance.
Mangifera indica
Alphonso is a cultivar identity, not a generic quality word. Origin/GI claims require documentary evidence.
Mangifera indica
Dasheri must remain distinct from other mango cultivars. Malihabadi Dusseheri GI wording requires authorized geographic provenance and lot evidence; visual similarity is not proof.
Mangifera indica
Langra is a named mango cultivar, not a colour or grade. Cultivar, orchard, harvest lot and packhouse must be evidenced before quoting.
Mangifera indica
Kesar cultivar and any protected-origin wording require traceable orchard/packhouse evidence.
Mangifera indica
Totapuri is a distinct cultivar often selected for processing as well as fresh use; intended use belongs in the contract.
Carica papaya
Declare cultivar, sex/type where commercially relevant, maturity colour stage and size/count.
Ananas comosus
Cultivar, crown status, count/size and internal maturity/acidity determine the program.
Litchi chinensis
Shahi is a cultivar identity. ‘Shahi Litchi of Bihar’ GI wording is permitted only with authorized Bihar provenance and traceable orchard, packhouse and lot evidence.
Punica granatum
Bhagwa is a cultivar program. Rind colour alone does not prove variety or internal aril condition.
