Abstract

India is considered land of spices. Of the 109 varieties of spices listed by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO), the country produces more than 65 spices and
which are mainly under conventional practices. Though organic farming is not anew,
scientific and organized production of organic spices is blooming in snail’space. Very
negligible data are available in this domain. Among total turn-over of organic products
from India to world export basket, the contribution of spices was only about 1%, till now.
Indiscriminate use of synthetic fertilizers, plant protection chemicals, processing inputs
etc., in vast areas of spice fields or orchards are major drawbacks for early adoption of
organic conversion of these existing lands under cultivation. Provision of subsidies on
organic inputs, scaling up of organic production strategies, framing up of well-connected
market intelligence will boost up the situation to a greater extent in near future.
