- Maharashtra: The leading state with the highest production due to its ideal climatic conditions.
- Andhra Pradesh: Known for its extensive cashew orchards and second in production.
- Orissa: A significant contributor with a strong emphasis on cashew farming.
- Karnataka: Features a diverse agricultural landscape supporting cashew cultivation.
- Tamil Nadu: Has a long-standing tradition of cashew farming.
- Kerala: Historically known for its cashew processing industry.
- Chhattisgarh: Emerging as a notable producer with increasing cultivation efforts.
- West Bengal: Contributes modestly but has potential for growth.
- Meghalaya: A smaller player with unique climatic advantages for cultivation.
- Gujarat: The least among the top ten but still part of India's diverse agricultural profile.
- Hazards in cashew nut production include physical issues from repetitive motions (like <<<invisible_url>>>musculoskeletal disorders<<<invisible_url>>>), skin burns and irritation from the caustic oil in the shell, respiratory problems from fumes and dust, ergonomic risks from poor workstations, and microbiological contamination<<<invisible_url>>> (like aflatoxins<<<invisible_url>>>).
- Additionally, workers can face stress and psychological issues due to job insecurity and poor conditions.
- The caustic oil in the cashew nut shell can cause severe skin irritation, chemical burns, and dermatitis on contact, especially during shelling.
- Exposure to dust, fine particulate matter<<<invisible_url>>>, and fumes from burning cashew nut shell can lead to chronic lung diseases and other respiratory issues.
- Repetitive tasks like shelling, peeling, and grading, coupled with poor posture and inadequate workstation ergonomics, commonly cause back pain, joint pain, and other MSDs.
- Job insecurity, lengthy and repetitive tasks, and inadequate recognition can lead to stress, anxiety, and depression among workers.
- Aflatoxins<<<invisible_url>>>, a type of mold, can grow on improperly stored nuts and pose a risk of liver damage or cancer if consumed.
Environmental Hazards- The process of roasting and heating cashew nut shells can release harmful gases, contributing to air pollution.
- Improper disposal of cashew nut shells and other waste can lead to land and water pollution.
Safety Hazards- Raw cashew nuts stored in sacks, especially if exposed to rain, are susceptible to infestation by insects.
- Inadequate sanitation practices in processing units can lead to cross-contamination of the product by pets, cleaning products, or poor stock management.
- Many cashew processing units are not designed ergonomically, leading to discomfort and strain for workers, particularly women.
These hazards can be mitigated through interventions such as designing ergonomic workstations, using protective equipment, providing appropriate training on handling cashew shells, and improving storage conditions.- (CHILDREN)
- The main side effects of cashew nuts are allergic reactions, which can be severe, and digestive issues like bloating or diarrhea from overconsumption.
- Other potential issues include weight gain due to high calories, increased risk of kidney stones from their oxalate content, and possible skin irritation if exposed to unprocessed raw cashews.
- Salted cashews can also raise blood pressure due to high sodium content.
- Cashews are expensive due to limited growing regions and climate-sensitive harvests, a difficult and labor-intensive extraction process that requires manual removal of toxic oils and husks, and high consumer demand driven by their versatility and popularity as a healthy snack.
- The ratio of raw nuts to finished kernels is low, meaning a large amount of raw product is needed to produce a small yield of kernels, further contributing to the cosT.
