India boasts a vibrant selection of cucumbers ideal for export. These crisp, refreshing vegetables come in various shapes and sizes, from the short and stubby gherkins to the long and slender English cucumbers. Their vibrant green skin, often with a slight waxy sheen, conceals a cool, crisp flesh with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Indian-grown cucumbers are cultivated under optimal conditions, ensuring consistent quality and year-round availability. India, boasting a rich agricultural heritage, is a major producer and exporter of cucumbers (Cucumis sativus). These refreshing and versatile vegetables thrive in the country's diverse climate, offering a window of opportunity for export throughout the year. **Varieties for Export:** Indian cucumber exports cater to a variety of tastes and preferences. The most popular export varieties include: **Long English Cucumber:** This variety, with its smooth, dark green skin and slender shape, is a favorite in Europe and the Middle East. * **Baby Cucumbers:** Bite-sized and often seedless, baby cucumbers are gaining popularity for their convenience and use in salads and snacks. They are particularly sought after in Southeast Asian markets. * **Miniature Cucumbers:** Slightly larger than baby cucumbers, these offer a good balance between size and flavor, making them ideal for snacking and lunchboxes. * **Field Cucumbers:** These larger, hardier cucumbers are typically used for pickling and brining. They find favor in markets like North America and Europe. **Quality and Cultivation Practices:** Indian cucumber growers prioritize quality for export. Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) are increasingly being adopted to ensure consistent quality, food safety, and minimal pesticide residue. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques help minimize reliance on chemicals while maintaining healthy crops. **Harvesting and Post-Harvest Handling:** Cucumbers are typically harvested when they reach a specific size and firmness, depending on the variety. Careful handling is crucial to prevent bruising and maintain freshness. Modern post-harvest techniques like pre-cooling and controlled atmosphere storage extend shelf life and ensure cucumbers arrive at their destination in optimal condition. **Packaging and Transportation:** For export, cucumbers are carefully packed to minimize damage during transportation. Cardboard boxes with individual dividers or plastic crates with ventilation holes are commonly used. Depending on the distance and destination, transportation options include refrigerated containers by air or sea. World Wide Shipping Highest Quality Produce 24 FSSAI Certified 100% Chemical Free

Pickled Cucumber A pickled cucumber (commonly known as a pickle in the United States and Canada and a gherkin in Britain, Ireland, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand) is a cucumber that has been pickled in a brine, vinegar, or other solution and left to ferment for a period of time, by either immersing the cucumbers in an acidic solution or through souring by lacto-fermentation. Pickled cucumbers are often part of mixed pickles. Cucumber Cucumber is mainly grown in the North of Vietnam. Since it just grows well in cool weather, so there are only 2 main crops per year, the first crop (Spring â?? Summer) is from March to May and the second (Autumn â?? Winter) is from November to January of the following year. The output per season is about 8,000 - 10,000 metric tons of fresh materials. Processing Cucumber is often harvested after 40-45 days since planting and the leading time for harvest lasts around two months. In the harvest time, cucumber still grows very quickly, so it should be picked everyday or so its size can be changed from 4-7 cm to 7-10 cm. Recipe Our pickled cucumbers are manufactured under a traditional recipe by using salt, sugar, spices, and acetic acid. It is done through a brine fermentation process. Fresh cucumbers are picked, washed and salted thoroughly, and then added to a brine solution for a number of weeks. Vinegar, sugar and spices can be added to the process depending on customer's requirements.
