The Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (MDoNER) launched “Mission Arunachal Kiwi” to promote Arunachal Pradesh as India’s premium organic kiwi hub.
The mission is implemented under the “Viksit North East” vision with an outlay of about ₹167 crore.
It follows a cluster-based model with six post-harvest hubs across key regions of Arunachal Pradesh.
The initiative focuses on branding, value addition, cold-chain development, and market integration for farmers.
Arunachal Pradesh produces over 50% of India’s kiwi output and is the first state to receive organic kiwi certification.
