A total of 7,500 tons of pomegranates were exported from Iran during the first eight months of the country (March 21-Nov. 21), registering a 100% rise compared with the similar period of last year, according to Zahra, an Agriculture Ministry official.
“Last year [March 2021-22], we exported 17,700 tons of the fruit worth nearly $8 million,” she was quoted as saying by ILNA.
She estimated this year’s production to reach as much as last year’s at 1.2 million tons.
