Abstract

Cashew is primarily an export-oriented commodity in India. Using a commonly accepted conversion ratio of raw nuts to kernel at 4.54, the volume of processed kernels in the country was worked out. By deducting the quantity of exported kernels from the total processed kernels, domestic consumption of kernels has been derived. The domestic consumption of processed kernels has increased during 2000-01 to 2009-10; the share of kernels exported in the total kernels processed in the country was still 40.84 percent during 2011-12.
