The 'Queen' pineapple is a well-known variety, prized for its sweetness, pleasant aroma, and crisp texture. It is extensively cultivated in several northeastern states of India.
In June 2018, the President of India, Ram Nath Kovind, officially declared the 'Queen' pineapple as the "State Fruit" of Tripura. This recognition aimed to promote this unique pineapple variety grown in Tripura and boost the income of farmers. Tripura is one of the largest pineapple-producing states in India, and the 'Queen' variety is a significant contributor to its horticultural economy.
