Abstract
Agriculture is the lifeblood of the Indian economy, as it provides food,
labor, materials, and other necessities to the industrialized cities. India's
largest private enterprise contributes one-fourth of the country's GDP,
supports two-thirds of the country's livelihood, and is the backbone of
agribusiness. Horticulture employs more than three-fifths of India's
population while contributing only one-fifth of the country's GDP. There
should be legitimate concerns regarding the efficient operation of this
sector, both in terms of yield/efficiency and promotion. Markets provide a
middle of the road connection between manufacturers and last interest by
purchasers, while yield and usefulness are supply side components.
Fruit and vegetables, whether green, yellow, orange, red, or purple, keep
us healthy while also adding variety, taste, and texture to our diets. Even if
you eat rice or bread every day, you most likely ingest a variety of fruits
and vegetables. A monotonous diet is not only bad for humans; it's also
bad for the environment because it can lead to monocultures and
biodiversity loss. Fruit and vegetables are edible plant components (e.g.,
seed-bearing structures, flowers, buds, leaves, stems, shoots, and roots)
that are either farmed or gathered wild, and are consumed fresh or with
minimal processing.
