Barot Valley Red Rajma begins with traditional agriculture and careful preparation. The following describes the typical journey of dried kidney beans from cultivation to packaging.
Step 1: Traditional Cultivation
Rajma is grown by farming communities in the Himalayan region. The crop is cultivated and cared for until the beans reach maturity.

The dried Rajma is sorted to remove unwanted materials, damaged beans, and impurities. The beans are then cleaned carefully.

The selected beans are checked for cleanliness, appearance, and overall quality before they are packed.

The cleaned Rajma is packed in food-grade packaging designed to help protect the beans from moisture and contamination during storage and delivery.
