Pine nute :
Pine nuts are one of the most valuable natural products of Afghanistan and one of the highest quality nuts available in regional and global markets. This nutritious and rare seed is obtained from the mountain pine tree (Pinus gerardiana), which grows in the high altitudes and natural forests of the country. Its delicious taste, beneficial pleasure, high nutritional value and medicinal properties have made pine nuts a special and highly sought-after product worldwide.
Afghanistan, with its pristine mountainous nature, is one of the main producers of pine nuts in the world. The eastern and southeastern provinces of the country, including Paktia, Khost, Paktika, Nangarhar, Kunar, Logar, Ghazni and Maidan Wardak, are among the most important centers for pine nut production in Afghanistan.
