Official
Iran exported about one billion dollars of dried fruits,
nuts and seeds in the previous Iranian calendar year 1401 (ended on March 20),
the secretary general of the Iranian Dried Fruit Exporters Union said.
According to Zeynolabedin Hashemi, the export of the
mentioned products registered a decline of 70 percent compared to the past two
years, IRIB reported.
Iranian dried fruits and nuts are mostly exported to China,
India, Eurasian members and Persian Gulf countries, the official said.
“It
is expected that next year's production volume will increase, because this
year's exports had a big drop and part of this year's products have been added
to next year's new products,” he added, according to Tehran Times.
