Demand for Green House

Agriculture is one of the most important pillars of the Indian economy. But for the last couple of decades, the land for agriculture is decreasing as the population is being increased gradually. The supply for food is getting volatile year by year. To overcome such issues, a greenhouse is one of the most affordable and preferable options. The demand for a greenhouse is so high that even a government offers around 50% subsidy to farmers on greenhouse installation. This shows how high the demand for a greenhouse is in India.

A greenhouse is a boon for the small and marginal farmers who have a very limited farm to grow crops. Because, under the greenhouse, a farmer can yield crops 3-5 times higher than farming in the open field means 3-5 times higher profits. Greenhouse technology has been getting popularity for the last decade and now more and more farmers are adopting the technology. As it offers a favorable environment condition to the crops, there is a very less plant mortality rate. A huge market is ready to get your products cultivated in the greenhouse.

Poly house plant growing and cultivation is 100% profitable if handle it properly. However, the construction may be expensive for you but it is just a one-time investment. As said earlier, greenhouse farming subsidy can reduce the financial burden of around 50%. In short, you will have to spend less amount to build a greenhouse and earn more through producing corps 3-5 times higher.

With the greenhouse technology, you can store a large number of vegetables for a couple of days means you do not need to sell it on the very next day at the price local middle man offers.
