Abstract

Bamboo is a naturally occurring and sustainably managed plant used in the export-oriented furniture, building and architecture sectors. Moreover, integrating bamboo shoots into the food industry has not only proven to be a viable business practice but also offers promising economic opportunities for rural populations. Despite of having so much popularity and tremendous utility, people of northeast India (NE India) are unsure whether this plant is healthy and can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet and can be commercialised for livelihood support. This review paper highlights the quality characteristics of edible bamboo species found in north-east India and describes the importance of commercialization of bamboo shoot and value-added products prepared from them which can support economic growth in rural areas and in sustainable development of the region.
