SWOT ANALYSIS OF INDIAN PEPPER INDUSTRYStrengths Superior intrinsic quality of the product Good base in value added products High domestic demand Cultivation as inter/mixed crop
Weaknesses? Low productivity? Insufficient supply of elite planting materials? Unscientific processing methods? Weak promotional activities? High dependence on weather? Lack of technical knowledge/technology for mechanicalfarming/processing
Opportunities? Increased global demand? Change in life style and food habits? Value added products? Unconventional usage? Organic production
Threats? Increasing production and high productivity in competingcountries? Price fluctuations? Increase in cost of production? Pests and diseases? Lack of sufficient experienced labour? Depletion of water sources in pepper area? Change in climate

conclusion
Combined RMM and VCM Practices of black pepper is:
the best practice in limiting the outbreak of soil-born diseases of black pepper
stable yield of black pepper gardens
contribute to a sustainable development of black pepper.
Productivity increases from 350-450 kg 2000-2500kg/ha
If these techniques practice in Black pepper Plantations of Kerala it would help them to retain their Golden days. Institutional level extension and application of these techniques will help to increase cultivation and production of black pepper.
