GUNTUR RED CHILLI

Nov. 18, 2019

The upswing in the price of famed Guntur red chilli (Gunturu ‘sannalu’) has come as a pleasant surprise to the stakeholders.

About:

‘Teja,’a special variety, is being sold for ₹20,000 a quintal, even in the August-December low season when chillies are stored in about 100 cold storages in adjoining villages.
The soaring demand for Guntur chilli is due to a range of factors, including a spurt in demand from China, Bangladesh, Thailand and Sri Lanka, who prefer it for its pungent character.
