1. With which country did India implement the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) for organic products?
India and Taiwan have implemented the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) for organic products, marking the first bilateral agreement for organic products between the two countries. The agreement, executed by APEDA from India and AFA from Taiwan, aims to streamline organic product exports by avoiding dual certifications, reducing compliance costs, and enhancing trade opportunities. This will facilitate the export of key Indian organic products such as rice, processed food, green/black and herbal tea, and medicinal plant products to Taiwan, boosting trade in the organic sector.
