About APEDA
The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) is a Government of India body under the Ministry of Commerce & Industry. Established under the APEDA Act 1985, it is responsible for the promotion and development of export of scheduled agricultural products from India.
APEDA manages the Basmati Export Development Foundation (BEDF), which monitors rice quality, maintains the basmati DNA database, and ensures traceability from farm to port. Only APEDA-registered exporters can legally export basmati rice from India.
