GARLIC CULTIVATION

Introduction: Agriculture has been the backbone of the Indian economy. Unfortunately, even after several attempts and decades of planning, agriculture sector has remained far from achieving it’s due share of accolades. Our farmers remain poor primarily due to lack of access to modern technology, implements, inputs and credit. Government schemes are available, but the poor farmers lack the intellect and the knowledge to access such schemes.

Product Description: Garlic is a bulbous plant species belonging to the onion genus. This plant can be very closely associated with onion, leek, shallot, chive, and Chinese onion. The garlic plant is native to central Asia and North Eastern Iran. Garlic is generally used as a seasoning agent in most food preparations and is expected to be known to the ancient Egyptians as a source of traditional medicine. This garlic or botanically Allium Sativum is believed to grow in the wild in some regions and the species that grow in Britain are classified into wild, crow and field garlic. Different species of garlic are named differently in various places such as Allium Vineale (wild or crow garlic), Allium Canadense (meadow or wild garlic) and Allium ampeloprasum (elephant garlic). The single clove variety called as a solo or pearl garlic is found mostly in Yunnan province of China. The total world production of garlic is more than 26.6 million tonnes, where China alone contributes 80% of the total. India is the second largest producer of garlic and accounts for almost 5% of the total world production. Garlic in India is cultivated mostly in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Gujarat. The general composition of raw garlic is 59% water, 33% carbohydrates, 6% protein, 2% dietary fibre and almost 1% fat. This Garlic cultivation project report describes the agro-climatic requirements for cultivating garlic and also focuses on the investment and profit associated with cultivating garlic on a small area of land.
