Lemon farming has been flourishing in this area for years. Kachai lemon or popularly known as Kachai Champra is considered to be unique as it is a rich source of ascorbic acid and famous for its juice content. It has been accorded a Geographical Indication (GI) registration tag. The fruit is indeed the pride of Manipur and is available from January to March.

The theme of 2022 was "Organic Kachai Lemon for Safe Environment and Rural Transformation". Around 360 stalls participated in the festival by producing a record 300 MT of lemons. A special training program for lemon farmers was organized during the festival. Three farmers have also been awarded for growing 'Best Kachai Lemon'.
