About This Product

Rajasthan Cumin Seeds

Cumin (Cuminum cyminum), called Jeera in India, is the world's second most popular spice after black pepper. Rajasthan accounts for over 70% of India's cumin production — and India in turn supplies approximately 70% of global cumin demand. The dry arid climate of Jodhpur, Nagaur and Barmer districts produces cumin with the bold, earthy, warm aroma profile that buyers worldwide recognise as the quality benchmark.

PAX Herbal supplies cumin seeds that are machine-cleaned, gravity-separated and sortex-processed to remove light, discoloured and shrivelled seeds. Our cumin consistently achieves 99.5% purity with volatile oil content of 3ml/100g+. Both food-grade and essential-oil-grade material is available. EU MRL pesticide residue standards are met, with test reports available on request.

We ship whole cumin seeds and cumin powder to spice companies, food manufacturers, essential oil distillers and supermarket private-label buyers in Germany, France, the USA, the UAE, Japan and Australia. FOB Kandla, CIF and CNF terms available.

Common Questions

Buyer FAQs

Rajasthan's arid climate, sandy soil and high sunshine hours produce cumin with naturally high volatile oil content and the signature bold aroma profile. Jodhpur and Unjha (Gujarat) are the two principal trading hubs — Rajasthan cumin is typically preferred for its aroma intensity.
EU MRL (Maximum Residue Limit) compliance means pesticide residue levels in our cumin fall within European Union permitted limits. We test each lot before export and can provide the pesticide residue test report. This is mandatory for all buyers in EU markets.
Singapore Clean is the premium grade — purity 99.5%+, minimal light seeds, uniform colour and aroma. FAQ (Fair Average Quality) is the standard trade grade at 99%+ purity — used for processing and blending where the small purity premium is not required.
MOQ is 1 metric ton for whole seeds. Powder grades: 500 kg. Sample quantities (250g–1kg) are available for laboratory evaluation.
