Abstract: Nepal cardamom (Amomum subulatum Roxb.) is one of the most precious commodities with considerable export potential, as well as one of our country’s most valued crops and most essential cash crops. Large cardamom is primarily farmed in the eastern region of our country. This study focuses on the current state of massive cardamom marketing and the value chain in Nepal. The market for large cardamon is hampered by a variety of obstacles. The vast cardamom market and marketing are weak, and there is a post-harvest loss that inhibits the market. Nepal is the top exporter of large cardamom in terms of market share. The districts of Ilam, Taplejung, Pachthar, and Sankhuwasabha produce and export huge quantities of best quality cardamom. India is the largest market for large cardamom in Nepal. The spice is re exported from India to Bangladesh, Pakistan, the Gulf states, and other international destinations through use of various transport systems.
