Best export crops from Nepal — coffee, large cardamom, tea, ginger?

Short answer: Large cardamom and orthodox tea remain the most reliable export categories; coffee is rising slowly; ginger is volatile.

Snapshot.

• Large cardamom: strong export demand, but price exposed to India market and Bhutan supply.
• Orthodox tea: premium specialty buyers in Germany, US, Japan — but quality-control is exacting.
• Coffee: small-lot specialty growing; volumes still modest.
• Ginger: Indian market dependence; price swings.

The exception most miss. Export-quality grading rejects most casual-grade output. Build the grading discipline before chasing the export buyer.
