Area averages (a grid cell of about 50 km) for 2001–2025, from NASA POWER, centred on Aizawl, adjusted for the town's elevation[4]. Rainfall and night temperatures at your plot can differ, especially near hills and the coast.[2]
Which greenhouse suits Aizawl?
For hydroponic farm construction in Aizawl, the structure decides which months you can crop and what it costs to run. With average highs between 19°C and 28°C through the year, Aizawl suits a naturally ventilated polyhouse for most crops. Fan & Pad cooling is rarely needed; spend the budget on good ventilation, insect net and a shade screen. Plan for heavy rain in July (about 415 mm): raise the plinth, size the gutters for that month and keep drains away from the nutrient tank.
Based on Aizawl's climate, the crops with the longest growing windows are lettuce (all year), spinach (all year) and coriander (all year). Lettuce fits all year in a naturally ventilated polyhouse. These are the crops we would plan first for hydroponic farm construction in Aizawl.
