Dear Prahlad sir, Congratulations for your entry to vegetable farming. Overal it is good and remunirative. Only issue is, we should not compete with the local farmers.Their overheads are very less. Most of the vegetable crops are grown by them, but mostly bush varieties and in open farming.

No much competition in Greenhouse growing and Chaparam Tharkari.

Hence I suggest you to grow vegetables in either Greenhouse and/or on Chaparam. Price fluctations are very less and we will get good continuous prices and profitable.

All the best. g.p.rao, farmer

Dear Satyanarayana Manne sir, Hope you are fine sir.

CHAPARAM means PANDHIRI in telugu. On the chaparam we can comfortably grow
Ridge gourd, Bitter gourd, Cucumbers, Bottle gourds, Dhondakaya ( Thondekaya ) , Beans etc .

The above said vegetables will have a good and study market, throught the year and all around the country. Rate fluctuations are very less comparitively like in case of Tomato, Brinjal, onions etc.

with good wishes, g.p.rao, farmer

Dear Sri Muralidhara, all the best to you. Though you are a chartered accountant, which is a very busy profession, you are sparing some time and doing agriculture along with your father , in between your busy schedule, I appreciate it sir.

Agri is a very good ,not a business and we may call it as a profession ( very respectable ). Try to conecentrate when your time permit and inspire your self.
