Four products from Goa set to get GI tag in less than 3 months.
Apr 26, 2023
Four products that are unique to Goa — bebinca, malcorada mango, seven ridge okra and Agasaim brinjal — have been published in the journal of the Geographical Indication (GI) Registry, which is the final stage in the process of obtaining a GI status for these items.
The products will officially have GI status in less than 3 months, following publication.
'This is the last phase of the registration process,' said Deepak Parab, the nodal officer for patent facilitation of GI tag in Goa.
A GI label indicates a product’s specific geographical origin and the qualities that stem from that provenance.
The department of science and technology is the nodal agency to undertake GI registrations for products unique to Goa. These are agricultural produce, handicrafts, food items and handloom articles. The department has designated the Goa State Council for Science and Technology as the facilitator for the work.
'After 90 days from the date of publication, the products will officially receive GI status. As a result, from the 91st day onwards, these products are deemed as registered and the GI certificate will be issued immediately,' he said.
The certificate will be issued by Chennai-based Geographical Indications Registry — the national body for GI status and registrations.
The next edition of the registry will feature the Goan cashew (processed kernel), therefore obtaining the special status for a total of five unique products of Goa, this year.
'Though the application for the Goan cashew (processed kernel) has been cleared, it has not yet been published due to some delays in filing the application. Once it is published in the next edition of the GI journal by May, it will acquire GI status,' Parab said.
Efforts are being made to acquire GI status for the fruit as well. The state government has therefore organised a meet on Friday for the Goa Cashew Growers’ Association to prepare an application for the Goan cashew (nut and apple). For which, cashew farmers from across Goa have been invited to prepare the pitch.
In addition, application for Goan sausage, Mussharat mango, Kunbi saree and handicrafts such as coconut carving and shell items, have also been filed for GI tag. Soon, the state will also seek GI status for korgut rice, Taleigao brinjal and manghilar mango.
