48. PROMOTION:
Agri Export Zone for promoting exports of pineapple has already been established in North Bengal. There are also good prospects for cultivation of organic pineapples in Kodagu district of Karnataka and Ratnagiri district in Maharashtra.
Trade fair are the other important factors for the promotional activity of pineapple in the foreign countries.
Promotion through newsletter in the foreign countries.
Pineapple festival in Churachandpur, Manipur 29th August 2008.

52. UTILISATION OF PINEAPPLE WASTE:
Pineapple peel is rich in cellulose, hemicellulose and other carbohydrates. Ensilaging of pineapple peels produces methane which can be used as a biogas.
The ability ofrhizopusoligosporousto produce enhanced levels of free phenolics from pineapple residue in combination with soy flour as potential nitrogen source. Thus, thevalue of pineapple wastes can be enhanced further.
Bromelain is present in pineapple wastes.
Reverse micellar extraction (rme) technique to extract and purify bromelain from pineapple wastes.
53. conclusion:
To save on transport, advantage of western ports needs to be taken for exporting to Gulf and European countries. For this, cultivation of pineapple in Karnataka, Maharashtra and Goa needs to be intensified.
At present, to meet the huge demands of European Union, South American and Central American countries supply pineapple. But their supplies taper from February onwards, India can exploit this situation in its favor by making available pineapple in February month onwards by planting different planting materials and regulating flowering.
Pineapple is very sensitive fruit to atmospheric temperatures when harvested after initiation of ripening. Therefore, in order to supply quality pineapple at par with South and Central American countries, packhouses and cool chain facilities need to be set up.
For extending storage period, CA and MA storage technology needs to be perfected and adopted and with the availability of MA storage facilities, pineapple can be sent to EU countries.
