While presenting his key note address Deputy Commissioner Kupwara said that Kupwara district is having vast potential and specialities in different export related products.
Famous Red rice of Kupwara, walnut of Kupwara, Kupwara honey, and Handicrafts and Marble of Kupwara, is known world-wide but question arises why dont we export these products.
” If California walnut which is inferior to Kupwara walnut , reaches in every corner of the world, Why not Kupwara walnut?
We have rice of Tamil Nadu, Punjab and other states. Why red rice of Kupwara is not known, marketed and exported despite it is having high quality, great flavour and aroma? Despite having numerous specialities, we are not able to sell our products world-over due to lack of awareness and will-power”DC said.
” In Kupwara district traders simply buy walnut kernels from farmers and load them in trucks and send to big mandis of the country. This is not exporting or marketing . Actually export is smart packaging, adopting maketing strategies, Linking of products,online selling and value addition of products” DC said.
DC asked entrepreneurs and traders of Kupwara district to focus on value addition and packing of walnut Kernels especially.
” We can add different flavours to walnut based products to make it more sought over we can add choclate flavor to walnut Kernals to add its value, flavour and aroma.
DC directed all traders and entrepreneurs to redouble their efforts for proper development of kupwara based export products so that these products become a brand in the world and Kupwara district becomes an export hub.
On the occasion Deputy Commissioner said that trader and farmer is directly linked to each other and depend on each other financially.Earnings from traders directly trickle down to farmer or grower.
