Quinoa can grow any where in India
hi
I have seen a land near Bhadravati - 1 Acre and would like to try growing Quinoa. The land is one long rectangle stretch. it has Arcanut trees on one side and rice on other side. during the evening there is shade from one side due to tall arcanut trees. Water is not a problem as we have the channel water flowing close by. Please suggest if this is suitable for cultivation. I have attached pics of the land.
Also a few more marketing related questions
what is the expected yield per acre
any agency who buys the grains
what is the selling price of unprocessed quinoa
what is the processing cost
what is the selling price for processed quinoa
Dear Manoj ji,
I was quite impressed with your research and the success you have achieved in cultivating quinoa. I am working with the smallholder farmers in Rajasthan (Bharatpur), where farmers are distressed due to continuously decreasing availability of water. I feel quinoa could be a good alternative to their current agricultural preferences. How can I get the guide that you have compiled?
I will start the cultivation on experimental basis and share my experiences on this forum.
Warm regards,
Dr Anurag Priyadarshee
