Manipur is known for the cultivation of a unique variety of rice called Ponmani. It is a fragrant rice variety that is grown in the state’s wet rice terraces. Ponmani rice is known for its long, slender grains and its delicate flavor. It is often used in making traditional Manipuri dishes such as chakhao (a rice dish cooked with meat and vegetables) and sabu mangal (a rice dish cooked with milk and sugar).

Lemons, pineapples, and oranges are not native to Manipur and are not widely cultivated there.
