ARECA MILK MIX
The arecanut palm is the source of common chewing nut, popularly known as betel nut or Supari. In India it is extensively used by large sections of people and is very much linked with religious practices. India is the largest producer of arecanut and at the same time largest consumer also.Major states cultivating this crop are Karnataka (40%), Kerala (25%), Assam (20%), Tamil Nadu, Meghalaya and West Bengal.
Current Scenario
Price fluctuation of arecanut in the district is a problem to the arecanut farmers. They are not able to forecast the price independently. The unavailability of transport facility to the arecanut growers make the farmers bound to sell their produce through middle men/agents. Moreover only few arecanut farmers do fermentation process. The price of fermented nuts is more as compared to ripe mature nuts because of its value addition i.e dipping in the pit with water for four to six months. The fermented nuts are highly demanded because of its taste.
But now the cost of arecanut reached to an low level because of foreign importing of arecanut . In India most of farmers are depending on arecanut by seeing this type of problem in farmers in our region , My mind blowed toward the alternative uses of arecanut. First I can try to prepare cold drinks and finally doing lot of effort i could able to get one badam powder kind of powder from areca. It is purely from areca, but the taste is similar to Badam, That's why i can prepare "ARECA MILK MIX".By doing lot of test its confirmed that powder is not harmful human health and it is fix to used as daily food product in both cold or hot.
