What is called export in handicrafts?

Correct answer: Selling products outside the country

Direct answer: Option A, selling products outside the country. Export means sending or selling goods from one country to buyers in another country. In handicrafts, an artisan may make baskets, pottery, textiles or jewellery and sell them to customers or traders abroad. The reasoning is simple: product made in India plus buyer in another country equals export from India. Option A is correct because it describes this international sale. Option B, keeping products at home, is storage, not export. Option C, not making products, is the opposite of production and has no connection with export. Option D, throwing away raw material, is waste and cannot be called trade. Export can help artisans find larger markets, earn income and make local crafts known internationally, although transport and legal requirements may be involved. Memory cue: export means goods go out of the country; import means goods come into the country.
