Inside Qatar’s Shilajit Boom: From Himalayan Origins to Doha Shelves

Shilajit Market

Shilajit forms through centuries of plant matter decomposition in high-altitude mountain fissures — and Mount Altai in Siberia is one of the key sources.
A brand is a label provided by the government. 

But what is the guarantee that the Shilajit in it is genuine? The price of genuine Shilajit  is about INR1,20,000 (1000 grams), while branded  and fake Shilajit is available for 20,000 to 30,000, which is strong evidence that it is fake. Shilajit collected from an altitude of 1-2 thousand feet in Nepal and Uttrakhand. In Kashmir Altai mount 1,20,000 per kg, while the price of shilajit from Nepal and Uttarakhand is 5 to 7,000 per kg.

The Growing Gold of Kashmir: Everything About Hazelnut Farming

Hazelnut trees in Kashmir
Hazelnut cultivation is gaining popularity in  South Kashmir, with farmers shifting towards this high-value crop due to promising market returns. While not native to Kashmir, hazelnuts thrive in the region's temperate climate, especially in high-altitude areas. Farmers in villages like Kokernag, Guridraman, and Matihandoo are increasingly planting hazelnuts, known locally as "virin," on approximately 2000 kanals of private land. 
  • Growing Demand: The demand for hazelnuts is increasing, leading farmers to switch to this crop for better returns.
  • Government Support: A government-run farm in Lehenwan, Kokernag, has about 3,500 hazelnut plants, demonstrating the potential of this cultivation.
  • Local Name: Hazelnuts are locally known as "virin" in Kashmir.
  • Nutritional Value: Hazelnuts are rich in protein, healthy fats, and vitamins, making them a valuable addition to local cuisine and traditional medicine.
  • Climate Suitability: The cooler, temperate climate of Kashmir's mountainous regions is well-suited for hazelnut cultivation.
  • Planting and Harvesting: The planting season for hazelnuts is from December to April, and harvesting occurs in September.
  • Yield: Hazelnut trees typically start bearing fruit after four years.
  • Wild Trees: Wild hazelnut trees can also be found in areas like Kupwara, Kishtwar, Phalgam, Khrew, Pulwama, Shopiyan  and Baramulla.
