Cultivating Stevia leaves - Is there a good scope in India?
I am interested in producing Stevia leaves & then selling them to buyers nationally & internationally.
I live in Mumbai and planning to buy about 5 acres of land to start off and later on grow slowly.
I would like to know what is the scope for Stevia production in India and is it a profitable business. Eventually, I want to get into manufacturing our own products from Stevia.
Can someone please guide me with proper information to start off this business?
Also I need some detailed information on how much time does it normally take to get the first product? Do we need to dry the leaves on-site or they can be simply stored?
Is there any institute, like a small business educational institute that would train me in this field of cultivation, since I am basically a mechanical engineer.
THank you to all, in advance.
Take care,
Prashant
