This document summarizes the current status, expectations, challenges, and suggestions for Sri Lanka's export agriculture crops. It notes that cinnamon, pepper, clove, and nutmeg are among Sri Lanka's top export crops, contributing 0.4-0.5% to GDP and 3.4% to total export earnings. The international market expects consistency in supply, quality, safety, and traceability. Key challenges include inconsistent supply and production, low quality, lack of traceability, and limited value addition. Suggestions include improving nursery management, expanding cultivation areas, ensuring quality and food safety, obtaining certifications, increasing value addition through product development, and improving marketing under a "Ceylon Spice" brand.
