Agri exporters face several structural and operational challenges, especially in regions like Marathwada. These challenges include inadequate infrastructure, shortage of skilled manpower, limited technology use, lack of market information, and difficulties in meeting international quality standards. Exporters also experience problems due to complex procedures, frequent policy changes. This study examines the key challenges faced by agricultural export businesses in the Marathwada region and evaluates the role of government policies in supporting exporters. The study is based on primary data collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using percentage analysis and the Chi-square test. The findings show that while government support exists, procedural and operational issues continue to limit export performance. The study suggests that simplifying procedures, improving infrastructure, and increasing exporter awareness can help strengthen agricultural exports.
