Meghalaya is known for its pineapple production, particularly the Giant Kew and Queen varieties. With the scientific names “ananas comosus”, pineapple has seen its significant industrial growth due to government support, including initiatives like FOCUS, which helps farmers with marketing grants and strengthening market linkages. Meghalaya has successfully exported processed pineapples to the European Union, specifically for baby food, and has even sent premium pineapples to Dubai.
