FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about sourcing mustard seeds from Aethon Overseas.

Grading is based on the total oil content (30-35%), moisture (max 8%), and the percentage of admixture. Our seeds are machine-cleaned and sortex-aligned to ensure zero foreign matter and uniform color.

Rajasthan is the 'Mustard State' of India, producing seeds with the highest pungency and glucosinolate levels. This makes them ideal for oil extraction and the production of premium spicy condiments and Western-style table mustards.

We export Small Black Mustard (Rai), Bold Yellow Mustard (Sarson), and Ground Mustard Powder. They are widely used in the mustard oil industry, pickle manufacturing (Western and Indian style), and as a base for spice rubs.

Our standard MCQ for mustard seeds is 500kg for air freight and 1 Metric Ton for sea freight. We offer bulk 25kg/50kg PP bags, which are ideal for industrial food processors, as well as customized retail jars.
