India has been exporting Frogs for decades. Fried Frog Leg is a Delicacy in in many countries. What about exporting Frogs?
.
* India has been also earning tens of millions of Euros by exporting Flowers. What about development of that Industry?
Very small quantity of Flowers are being exported to Europe by Pakistan because nobody knows, how to Package them to ship.
* In Fruits, India exports Coconuts and Mangoes.
* Pakistan has better or more varieties of Mangoes but they don't know, how to package to ship them also so, it hardly exports any Mangoes.
* Good 'Arvi' or 'Arbi' or Tera Root is hard to find in USA and Canada. Same could be true in Europe. How about exporting that to Oriental and Daisi Food Stores?
.
How about contacting Indian Pakistani Bangladeshi and Oriental Food Stores in those countries to export 'Kathal'?
Kathal is eaten in countries east of Sub Continent also, not only in Bengal.
