Cardamom is not native to Guatemala but the country possesses unique climatic conditions for its cultivation, which may explain why it has long been a leading world exporter (US$ 486 million in 2015, accounting for 54 per cent of the world trade, followed by India and Nepal with 20 and 10 percent). The major difference from other countries exporting cardamom is that Guatemala does not consume cardamom domestically, with 99 per cent of production going to the international market, making it solely an income-extracting activity significantly exposed to international price fluctuations.
