Himachal Pradesh to Build Climate-Adaptive Greenhouses

Himachal Pradesh has unveiled a plan to construct climate‑adaptive greenhouses across apple and vegetable farms in Shimla, Solan, and Kinnaur. These greenhouses use smart cooling and heating systems driven by sensors measuring soil moisture and temperature. They reduce frost damage and extend growing seasons for high-value crops. A public-private partnership model will support 1,000 farmers in the pilot phase. State officials expect a 25–30% increase in yield and robust export potential.
