AI SummaryGreen House is a dedicated agricultural support scheme for farmers in Rajasthan that helps them earn more through protected cultivation. By giving financial subsidy for setting up greenhouse structures, the scheme lets farmers grow high-value horticultural crops like vegetables, flowers and fruits in any season, no matter what the outside weather is like.
Rajasthan government runs this scheme through the Horticulture Department, and farmers can apply online or through their nearest e-Mitra center. The official greenhouse page on the Raj Kisan portal confirms the subsidy rates for the current financial year, so interested farmers can check the details and apply.
Green House - Introduction
Green House helps farmers by providing financial support to build protective structures, such as glass or polythene huts, that keep ideal growing conditions for crops. With these structures, farmers can control temperature, humidity and sunlight, so delicate plants stay healthy even in harsh heat or extreme cold. Whether a farmer wants to grow exotic flowers or high-demand vegetables, this infrastructure makes year-round cultivation possible on the farm.
Construction of the greenhouse must only begin after the Horticulture Department issues the official administrative approval or work order. Once the structure is ready, a local committee verifies the work. The subsidy amount is then sent directly to the farmer's bank account or, with written consent, to the approved firm handling the construction.
