Study on the export potential of fresh vegetables

SAWTEE undertook the project Study on the export potential of fresh vegetables, funded by Adam Smith International. The objective of the project was to find out the demand and supply situation of fresh vegetables in Nepal and international markets, mainly India, through a survey of Nepal’s major regional vegetable markets and identify the export potential of fresh vegetables from Nepal.  

The project was implemented from April 2016 to September 2016. Field visits were conducted in seven border areas between Nepal and India. A study report, along with a policy paper, were also produced. The findings of the project were disseminated to relevant stakeholders in a national workshop held in Kathmandu.
