Makhana Board Launched, Boosting India's Superfood Industry

Bihar farmers are celebrating the launch of a new board dedicated to makhana, also known as fox nuts.

This board aims to help farmers grow, process, and sell makhana more efficiently, with the goal of making it a popular snack worldwide.

The government has provided funds to modernize the industry and help farmers gain access to training and resources.

The board will assist with improving the entire process, from growing to packaging, and ultimately boost exports.

This is expected to improve farmers' incomes and introduce the Indian makhana to the global market.
