Arbi (Colocasia / Taro Root)

Welcome to Siya Agri Exports LLP, your source for the freshest and most flavorful root vegetable from Indian farms-Arbi (Colocasia).

Also known as Taro Root or Eddoe, Arbi is a starchy tuber with a brown, fibrous skin and white flesh. It is often compared to a potato but offers a much richer, nuttier flavor and a creamier texture.

We source our Arbi from the best soil regions in Uttar Pradesh and Punjab, where the tubers grow to a perfect medium size. We ensure the crop is harvested at the right maturity so it is not too fibrous. Whether you want to make the famous Indian "Arbi Fry" (Crispy Spiced Taro) or a thick, savory gravy, our Arbi cooks to perfection every time.

Why Choose Siya Agri Exports for Arbi?

Clean & Dry (Soil-Free)

Visual Appeal: Arbi grows underground and is naturally covered in mud. Cheap suppliers ship it muddy, which increases weight and spoilage risk. We Mechanically Clean and Dry our Arbi to remove excess soil. You pay for the vegetable, not the mud.

Sorted for Quality

No Cuts or Spoilage: Arbi skin is delicate. We manually sort out any pieces with cuts, soft spots, or shriveled ends. This ensures that when the customer peels it, they find clean white flesh inside, minimizing waste.

Applications & Uses

Arbi Tuk / Fry: Boiled, flattened, and deep-fried to create a crispy snack.

Curries: Cooked in yogurt-based gravies (Dahi Wali Arbi) or tomato sauces.

Qolqas Soup: A famous Middle Eastern stew made with Taro and chard/spinach.

Chips: Sliced thin and fried like potato chips (popular in South India).

Baby Food: Boiled and mashed taro is easily digestible and non-allergenic.

Logistics & Packaging

Breathable Packing: Arbi needs air circulation to prevent fungus. We strictly use Red or Orange Mesh Bags (Net Bags) or Jute Bags. We never use plastic poly bags as they cause the root to rot instantly.

Storage: We ship in Reefer Containers (Temperature Controlled) for long transits to keep the tubers dormant and fresh.
