Two world famous local specialty products of Jammu Division, Bhaderwah Rajma and Ramban Sulai Honey, have earned the coveted Geographical Indication (GI) tag, an official said on Tuesday.

The Director Agriculture Production & Farmers Welfare Jammu, K. K. Sharma, said the process for GI tagging of these products was initiated by the Department of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare, Jammu and finally it was granted on Tuesday, reports Excelsior.

“This is a great leap forward in promoting these exceptionally popular products of Jammu Division at international level,” Sharma said. “The GI tag will boost exports and promote their brands at international level, which will in turn boost the local economy.”

The GI tag is a trade name or label applied to a particular product that designates a particular geographic region or country of origin. The GI tag’s primary feature is its uniqueness, which guards against any form of third-party misuse.

“Now, only an authorized user has the exclusive rights to use the Geographical Indication in relation to these products,” Sharma said. “This will prevent unauthorized use of these registered Geographical Indication goods by third parties and will help the local producers to get a fair price for their products.”

The GI tagging of Bhaderwah Rajma and Ramban Sulai Honey is a major boost for the local economy of Jammu Division. The two products are known for their unique taste and quality, and the GI tag will help to ensure that they continue to be produced and marketed to the highest standards.

The GI tagging is also a recognition of the hard work and dedication of the local farmers and producers. The GI tag will help them to get a fair price for their products and to promote their brands at international level.
