 MISSION FOR INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT OF HORTICULTURE (MIDH)

Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme for the holistic growth of the horticulture sector covering fruits, vegetables, root & tuber crops, mushrooms, spices, flowers, aromatic plants etc.

Main objectives of the Mission are:

1.   Promote holistic growth of horticulture sector, including bamboo and coconut through area based  regionally differentiated strategies, which includes research, technology  promotion, extension, post harvest management, processing and marketing, in consonance with comparative advantage of each State/ region and its diverse agro-climatic features;

2. Encourage aggregation of farmers into farmer groups like FIGs/ FPOs and FPCs to bring economy of scale and scope.

3.  Enhance horticulture production; augment farmer’s income and strength and nutritional security.

4. Improve productivity by way of quality germ plasm, planting material and   water use efficiency through Micro Irrigation.

5. Support skill development and create employment generation opportunities for rural youth in horticulture and post harvest management, especially in cold chain sector.
