In recent times, the farming of flowers and vegetables was considered as a leading option to overcoming yield problems and, as greenhouses guarantee year-round output, farmers are more involved in it. The country’s greenhouses are mainly fitted with micro-irrigation systems and, underneath the greenhouse section, drip irrigation is perhaps the most prevalent micro-irrigation method.

The key crops grown in the greenhouses are leafy vegetables, capsicum, flowers and tomatoes. Most state governments in the nation are offering incentives for the development of greenhouses. Increased interference by many state governments by offering subsidy, combined with the increasing product development by big players, is therefore expected to more drive the sector.

Conclusion

Greenhouse farming has emerged as a progressive and sustainable solution to tackle traditional agricultural challenges such as fluctuating yields and seasonal limitations. With the support of advanced micro-irrigation techniques particularly drip irrigation farmers are now able to ensure consistent and efficient crop production throughout the year. The cultivation of high-value crops like leafy vegetables, capsicum, flowers, and tomatoes has become more profitable under controlled greenhouse conditions. Furthermore, the proactive involvement of state governments through subsidies and policy support, along with the increasing participation of private players investing in technological innovation, is significantly boosting the adoption of greenhouse farming.
