Jam is made by cooking fruit with sugar. This product is usually stored in a closed container and stays usable for a long time. Natural or artificial pectin and honey can also be used as additives. Through the production of jams or even marmalades, various fruits can be stored and used in a modified form throughout the year. Due to its high fruit production, Iran can increase the exchange rate of its non-oil exports by exporting jams. This year, more than 433 tons of jams, jellies and marmalades have been exported to 14 countries including the Republic of Azerbaijan, Australia, Afghanistan, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Turkey, New Zealand, Sweden, Iraq, Oman, Qatar and Norway.
