Understanding the Special Technique

This innovative method is based on polyhouse technology. Traditionally, polyhouses have been expensive, limiting access for many farmers. However, agricultural scientists, particularly those at Birsa Agricultural University, have developed a groundbreaking variation known as the roof-displaced polyhouse technique.

How It Works

The roof-displaced polyhouse is constructed using bamboo and specialized covering materials. Unlike traditional polyhouses, the roof in this design can be adjusted according to weather conditions. During summer, it's covered with UV-stabilized film to shield plants from excessive heat, while in winter, it's replaced with shade net material to maintain optimal growing conditions.

Benefits Over Traditional Methods

Compared to conventional polyhouses and shade net technology, the roof-displaced polyhouse offers several advantages. It allows for year-round cultivation without interruptions, ensuring consistent production and quality. This technology also effectively manages microclimate conditions like temperature, light intensity, and humidity, resulting in healthier crops and higher yields.

Suitable Vegetables for Roof Extended Polyhouse

Almost all types of fruits, flowers, and vegetables can be cultivated using this method. Essentially merging the benefits of both polyhouses and shade nets, the roof-extended polyhouse provides farmers with a versatile and efficient growing environment.

Government Support

To encourage adoption, the government provides subsidies of up to 50% for polyhouse and shade net technologies. In Bihar, for instance, farmers can receive subsidies of Rs 935 per square meter for the construction of the polyhouse and Rs 710 per square meter for shade net technology.
