This page lists the 72 towns in Bihar where we have a polyhouse construction guide. Each guide uses that town's own monthly climate to suggest the right structure (naturally ventilated polyhouse, fan and pad polyhouse or nethouse) and lists our construction and material services. We have built 2 projects in Bihar so far (see our project map (opens in a new tab)).
The towns listed are 1,020 to 1,460 km in a straight line from our nearest site. On the Köppen–Geiger climate map, 72 of these towns fall in the humid subtropical with dry winters zone (Cwa).[1] Urban households in Bihar spent an average of ₹5,165 per person per month in 2023–24, against an all-India urban average of ₹7,078.[2]
