  1. Challenges in Maintaining Spice Quality During Export Promoting Global Pulse Farm: Your Partner in Premium Spice Exports The global spice market was valued at an impressive $23 billion in 2023. Quality is paramount for success in international spice trade.

  2. Introduction: The Complex Journey of Spices Multi-Stage Journey Quality Risks High Rejection Rates Spices undergo 7-10 stages from farm to international market. Degradation risks at each stage: sourcing, processing, transport. Estimated 15-20% of spice imports face quality rejections/detentions globally.

  3. Challenge 1: Microbiological Contamination • Risk: Salmonella, E. coli, yeasts, molds present food safety hazards. • Impact: FDA detentions, e.g., 12% of spice shipments were detained for Salmonella in 2013-2014. • Specifics: High moisture (above 12%) significantly increases mold growth, compromising quality.

  4. Challenge 2: Chemical Contamination & Adulteration 1 2 Pesticide Residues Aflatoxins Strict MRLs in EU (e.g., 0.01 mg/kg for chlorpyrifos on pepper). Fungal toxins; EU limits as low as 5 µg/kg in certain spices (e.g., chili, paprika). 3 4 Heavy Metals Adulteration Lead, cadmium; limits vary by country (e.g., 0.1 mg/kg lead in turmeric). Adding cheaper fillers (e.g., brick dust in chili powder, Sudan dyes).

  5. Challenge 3: Maintaining Sensory & Physical Quality • Volatile Oil Loss: Up to 50% loss of aroma compounds during improper drying/storage. • Moisture Control: Critical for preventing caking, mold, and preserving pungency (ideal 8-10%). • Color Degradation: Light and heat exposure cause fading in spices like paprika, turmeric. • Physical Damage: Breakage, foreign matter due to inadequate handling and packaging.
