Union Agriculture Minister Mr. Shivraj Singh Chouhan Says That Central Government Completely Abolished The 20 Percent Export Duty On Onion

25 March 2025, New Delhi: Union Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Minister Mr. Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that the Modi Government is a farmer-friendly government and giving remunerative prices to farmers, ensuring fair prices is its priority and commitment. Mr. Chauhan told today that earlier 40% export duty was levied on onions but when the price of onions started falling and farmers started getting less price, then the government decided to reduce the export duty on onion from 40% to 20%. Today the government has decided that the 20% export duty should also be completely removed. The removal of export duty on onions will enable our farmers’ hard-earned produce to reach global markets duty-free, securing better and more remunerative prices.
