- On November 22, 2025 it was reported that Government data for April–September 2025 shows India’s agricultural exports rising 8.8% to $25.9 billion-outpacing overall merchandise export growth of 2.9%-driven by strong performance in non-basmati rice, buffalo meat, marine products, coffee, and fruits & vegetables.
