This page lists the 3 towns in Meghalaya where we have a farm planning guide. Each guide uses that town's own monthly climate to suggest a protected structure, a hydroponic system and a crop calendar. We have built one project in Meghalaya so far (see our project map (opens in a new tab)).

The towns listed are 1,650 to 1,810 km in a straight line from our nearest site. On the Köppen–Geiger climate map, 2 of these towns fall in the subtropical highland with dry winters zone (Cwb) and 1 in the humid subtropical with dry winters zone (Cwa).[1] Urban households in Meghalaya spent an average of ₹7,857 per person per month in 2023–24, against an all-India urban average of ₹7,078.[2]

Subsidy in Meghalaya

Polyhouse, shade net and hydroponic projects can apply for assistance under the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) through the Meghalaya horticulture department. Rates and limits change, so check the current norms when you apply. We prepare the Detailed Project Report for your bank loan and subsidy application.[3]
