Patna: Five tonnes of high-quality Mithila makhana have been exported from Bihar to a Chinese company, marking a new chapter in the state’s growing presence in global agricultural trade. The shipment was sent through the International Cooperative Development Council in Patna and flagged off in the presence of Agriculture Minister Ram Kripal Yadav. Officials described the export as a proud moment for the state’s farmers and fishermen who have long cultivated makhana in the ponds and wetlands of north Bihar.

The export was facilitated by the Bihar State Fishermen’s Cooperative Federation, known as COFFED, which represents more than 880 cooperative societies across the state. Managing director Rishikesh Kashyap said the shipment reflects the quality and hard work of Bihar’s makhana producers. He added that efforts are under way to expand exports further and strengthen Bihar’s position in international markets with the support of private partners.Bihar’s Makhana Enters China Market with Five-Tonne Export Boost

Makhana from Bihar is already exported to countries including the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Belgium, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Around 50 to 60 containers are shipped every month. This year, total exports are expected to reach 30,000 tonnes as global demand for makhana, widely regarded as a healthy snack or superfood, continues to grow steadily.

Officials believe that increased exports will ensure better prices for producers, generate rural employment and boost export-oriented industries in the state. With China now added to its list of trading partners, Bihar is moving closer to establishing itself as a global hub for makhana production and export.

  • 🚧 Clean fuel rollout hits a roadblock in Bihar
PNG expansion in the Danapur–Bihta belt has come to a halt due to delayed clearance along NH-139. With the NOC from National Highways Authority of India still pending, pipeline work remains stuck—impacting households, industries, and upcoming CNG supply plans.
The delay is affecting key areas like Danapur and Bihta, including industrial zones facing fuel shortages. Once approved, the project led by GAIL India Limited could bring cleaner, more reliable energy within months.
But for now, thousands continue to wait as the push for sustainable fuel slows down ⛽⚠️
