Advantages of protected cultivation in Narnaul
1
ವರ್ಷವಿಡೀ ಬೆಳೆಗಳು
A polyhouse stretches the season: in Narnaul cucumber can be grown for about 9 months a year under cover, longer than in the open field.
2
ಉತ್ತಮ ಇಳುವರಿ ಮತ್ತು ಬೆಲೆ
Plants grow without rain, hail and wind damage, so yields are higher and more even, and clean, graded produce sells at a better price, especially off-season.
3
ಕಡಿಮೆ ನೀರು
With only about 550 mm of rain a year here, drip irrigation under cover saves water: less is lost to evaporation and run-off than in the open field.
4
Less pesticides
Insect net on vents and doors keeps out most pests, so you spray less often.

Which polyhouse suits Narnaul?
For polyhouse farming in Narnaul, the structure decides which months you can crop and what it costs to run. The heat in Narnaul comes with dry air. In April to June, average highs reach 42°C while average humidity is only about 28%. In that dry air, wet pads can bring a 42°C May afternoon down to roughly 30°C inside a Fan & Pad polyhouse, which keeps herbs and vine crops going; lettuce will still struggle in the hottest weeks. For vine crops such as capsicum and cucumber, a naturally ventilated polyhouse with a shade screen works from November and costs less to run.
Sunlight peaks in May at about 6.8 kWh per m² a day, so add a shade screen for leafy greens in the brightest months. A nethouse, the lowest-cost option, can grow hardy crops in March and October to November, when it is mild and fairly dry.
Crops for Narnaul
Based on Narnaul's climate, the crops with the longest growing windows are cucumber (9 months), chilli pepper (8 months) and brinjal (8 months). Cucumber fits March to November with Fan & Pad cooling. These are the crops we would plan first for polyhouse farming in Narnaul.
