Many farmers are earning well from the cultivation of horticultural crops like vegetables, fruits, flowers and spices. Seeing the success of these crops, the government is also promoting them among the farmers. If you are also thinking of cultivating horticultural crops, then you can take advantage of a scheme of the Central Government. With the help of this scheme, along with financial help, farmers are also given training in the cultivation of horticultural crops.
The name of this scheme is National Horticulture Mission and it was started in 2005-2006. The objective of this scheme is to promote the cultivation of horticultural crops. With this scheme, small and marginal farmers can get good production on less land. It is noteworthy that horticultural crops require less irrigation as compared to food grains. To avail the benefits of this scheme you can apply online. To apply, you must visit the official website nhb.gov.in.
