Updated: Jan 26, 2026

Bihar Fox Nuts, also known as Mithila Makhana, represent 90% of the world’s supply. At PLS Agro Foods, we leverage Bihar’s unique wetland ecosystem to produce the finest grade of fox nuts, recently recognized with a Geographical Indication (GI) Tag.

The Bihar Advantage:

  • Top Producing Districts: Our facility in Katihar is located in one of Bihar’s top three production hubs, ensuring direct-from-farm freshness.
  • Nutritional Profile: Bihar’s soil is rich in minerals, giving our fox nuts a superior protein (9.7g/100g) and fiber (14.5g/100g) content compared to other regions.
  • Grading Excellence: We offer export-quality grading, from 5 Suta (Industrial) to 7+ Suta (Jumbo Premium), with less than 10% breakage.
  • New Government Support: With the establishment of the National Makhana Board in 2025, Bihar’s industry is now more regulated and quality-certified than ever before.

Whether you are looking for bulk raw kernels for manufacturing or roasted variants for retail, our Bihar-based supply chain ensures the most competitive pricing and highest food safety standards.
