India has exported 7 tonnes of Bihar's famous Makhana (fox nuts) to Canada through the sea route, the Commerce Ministry said in a statement on Thursday.
The export marks a significant step in promoting Bihar's premium agricultural produce in global markets while expanding the state's basket of value-added agricultural exports, it noted.
The consignment, comprising 7 metric tonnes packed in two containers, was dispatched through Mundra Port to ZKV Foods, Canada.
Makhana, popularly known as fox nuts, is one of Bihar's flagship agricultural products, with the state accounting for the largest share of India's production.
Meanwhile, the first-ever air shipment of Neelam and Totapuri mangoes was shipped from Karnataka to the Maldives.
