Advancing Floriculture in India: Impact of Hi - Tech Cultivation on Marginal and Large - Scale Farmers
Abstract: The Indian floriculture industry is the 14th largest exporter of floriculture products globally and the second largest flower - growing nation. Despite its potential, India?s share in global floriculture exports is minimal at 0.40 in 2018. This study aims to motivate farmers of all sizes in India and worldwide to adopt greenhouse cultivation techniques, known as protected cultivation. These hi - tech methods, such as greenhouses and high tunnels, are crucial in regions with extreme climates, limited water resources, and arable land. Floriculture, on to these techniques can enhance production and sustainability, making floriculture a lucrative business venture. Floriculture provides tremendous scope and opportunities and has become a major ingredient of modern lifestyle. This article highlights the importance of adopting hi - tech cultivation techniques to enhance the productivity and profitability of floriculture, particularly for marginal farmers in India.
