Crore-taka henna leaf business ahead of Eid
Abul Bashar, a resident of Kolatia Union in Keraniganj Upazila, Dhaka, has cultivated henna on 10 bighas of land. His total investment in this venture was approximately 100,000 taka. However, within just three to four days before Eid, he expects to earn over a hundred thousand taka from selling henna leaves. After deducting expenses such as labor wages, land preparation, and pesticides, he anticipates making a profit of at least 300,000 taka during the month of Ramadan. He stated that he achieved a similar profit last year.
