BackgroundHorticulture crop production surpassed food crops

production in India for the first time during 2013-14 and

continued during 2014-15 with total production of 283.5

MT. The share of horticulture output in agriculture GDP is

now more than 33%. Horticultural crops provide gainful

employment for small farmers and agricultural labor

throughout the year. One hectare of fruit production

generates 860 man-days per annum as against 143

man-days for cereal crops. The importance of

horticulture is substantiated by its benefits like high

export value, high per unit area yield, high returns per

unit area, best utilization of wasteland, provision of raw

materials for industries etc. As a result the importance of

Horticulture is being realized at all levels, be it a small or

a large farmer, the corporate sector or the policy

planners.

Even with the significant increase in production of

horticultural crops, there are some factors which need

serious attention like:

Low productivity and profitability in many crops,

Technology gaps,

Inadequate skilled workers,

Climate changes and erratic weather pattern,

Inappropriate irrigation and nutrient management

There is also a concern of the youth leaving farming

business and moving to cities for other jobs.
