Why Choose Siya Agri Exports for Cumin?

High Volatile Oil (Aroma)

The value of Cumin is in its oil.

Quality Check: We source seeds from the Unjha belt which are famous for having high volatile oil (above 3%). This ensures that when your customer opens the bag, they are hit with that distinct, powerful cumin scent.

Steam Sterilization (Safety)

Micro-Biology: Cumin grows near the soil and can carry bacteria. For premium buyers, we offer Steam Sterilized cargo which guarantees Low Bacteria Count and zero Salmonella, making it safe for direct consumption without cooking.

Applications & Uses

Global Cuisine: The key flavor in Mexican Tacos, Indian Curries, and Middle Eastern Falafel.

Essential Oil: Distilled to extract Cumin Oil for perfumes and flavorings.

Beverages: Roasted and crushed for traditional drinks like Jaljeera and Lassi.

Bakery: Sprinkled on top of savory biscuits and breads.

Logistics & Shipping

Container Load: We optimize loading to fit 13 to 14 MT in a 20ft container.

Liner Bags: Cumin is sensitive to moisture. We strictly use HDPE Liners inside the jute or PP bags to prevent the seeds from turning black during the sea voyage.
