POLYHOUSE

Polyhouse is a protective shade made up of polythene used for growing high value agricultural products. It is semi-circular, square or elongated in shape. Temperature, humidity, ventilation of air are controlled by the equipments fixed in the polyhouse.
Crops grown in the polyhouse are protected from intense heat, bright sunlight, strong winds, hailstones and cold waves. Polyhouses are used in floriculture and nurseries. Besides from this polyhouses are also used for horticulture, though the primary and best is floriculture when considering the investment. A prime example would be the ability to grow vegetables/fruits when its usually off season. In a place like India, the inability to grow tomato during rainy season allows its price to soar during the monsoon. This is spotted as an ideal time to grow tomato in poly houses. This is because the poly house is designed in such a way to provide ideal climate to the crop of your choice. Every factor influencing a crop can be controlled in a poly house. For eg. If you have your poly house in a tropical zone, temperatures are prone to soar above all normal levels. In such cases, foggers/misters are used to reduce the temperature. This does not enhance the humidity levels in the poly house as the evaporated droplets are almost immediately ventilated to open air. High tech poly houses even have heating systems as well as soil heating systems to purify the soil of unwanted viruses, bacteria etc.

Prosperity in a polyhouse

In less than three years, more than 9,500 polyhouses have replaced ‘terraces’ on nearly 100 hectares of cultivable land on the slopes of Himachal Pradesh.
The innovative and lucrative method of farming inside polyhouses to grow vegetables has turned out to be ideal in harsh winters when little cultivation is possible in the hill state, particularly for farmers with small landholdings.
The transformation is most visible in the lower- and mid-hills of Bilaspur, Kangra, Mandi, Hamirpur Sirmaur and Solan, which remained largely barren during winters, and where farmers, including educated youths, have embraced the new precision farming technique.
The initiative — started under the state government’s Rs 353 crore subsidy scheme called Pt Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Kisan-Bhagwan Samridhi Yojana — is paying off well in a state that has so far been popular only for its apples and flowers. In just two years, some of the high-yielding and exotic cash crops like red and yellow capsicum, cauliflower and cucumber grown in the polyhouses have brought returns to the tune of Rs 25 crore per annum.
The National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) has sanctioned the loan for the scheme under which 16,000 polyhouses is to be set up by next year.
Dev Dutt Chauhan, 27, a trained Ayurveda (pharma) degree-holder, who quit his job with Dabur company, has set up a 1,000 square metre polyhouse at Bhall Balwan (Khandoror) village in Bilaspur last year.

Chauhan sold red and yellow capsicum in Delhi markets during the Commonwealth Games (CWG) and earned Rs 1.50 lakh. “This year, too, the crop yield has been very good. I have fetched rich returns by supplying the produce to Delhi and The Oberoi Cecil in Shimla. My produce is completely organic and I also used the Internet to tie up for marketing,” he says.

Planthouse

The Gabriel Ash planthouse greenhouse is both a thing of beauty and incredibly functional. The greenhouse was designed with taller plants in mind (hence the name) and built using our standard freestanding greenhouse but raised up on a wall approx. 500mm high.
This pushes the already substantial eaves height from over 5ft to nearly 7ft tall. Add to this a pair of double swing doors in the gable end instead of the standard sliding door, and the Gabriel Ash Planthouse really is a commanding structure.
Available in the usual 8ft, 10ft, and 12ft widths, and lengths in modules of 1ft 11in that can go on for ever, the planthouse makes a wonderful addition to any garden.
