Protected cultivation of horticultural crops offers best choice for diversification in agriculture production for numerous reasons. Production of crops under protected conditions has great potential in augmenting production and quality of vegetables, flowers and some fruit crops in main and off season and maximizing water and nutrient use efficiency under varied agro climatic conditions and peri urban areas in the near future.
We need to train our human resources to cater to the requirements of this developing industry. This vital link of providing trained manpower to the emerging industry requirements in horticulture sector has prompted us to launch an Institute of Horticulture Technology. It is characterized by State-of-the-Art facilities coupled with experienced, and professional faculty to ensure a steady supply of well-trained manpower that are fine tuned to the requirements of the horticulture industry.
The institute envisions capacity building in technology driven horticulture to meet the increasing demands of the fast-developing horticulture industry of the country. Present and prospective entrepreneurs interested in Hi Tech Horticulture like Hydroponics, Aeroponics are increasing day by day. Various MNC’s and other big companies are venturing in Agriculture thus opening a wide space for people to get trained in Hi Tech Horticulture.
