Horticulture Startup Kashmir

Horticulture also serves as a high contributing industry to the state’s economy. Out of the total area of horticulture in the state, 90 percent is concentrated in the valley due to its suitable climate. With annual turnover of 75 million USD, this sector is the biggest source of income in the state’s economy next to agriculture. Additionally, horticulture is gaining momemtum in the state as revealed by its 7-8% contribution to the state’s GDP. 

Almost 45% of economic returns in the agricultural sector is accounted for by horticulture.4 The agro-climatic conditions prove highly suitable for growth and development fruits and various wild herbs. Local soil is deep and rich in organic matter and access to human resources for farm labour is amply abundant.

The horticulture industry also serves as a great advantage to the state due to its monopoly on walnuts,black walnuts, almonds, pears, cherries, apples, hazelnuts, pecan-nuts, strawberries, goji berries, persimmon, and kiwi fruits. However, according to the J&K Planning Commission, Kashmiri horticulturalists have limited their industry to merely supplying primary products rather than diversifying their market through value addition. Juice concentrate and jams, processing units for saffron, herbs and dry fruits like almonds and walnuts also offer abundant opportunities for entrepreneurship. Export potential for processed fruits, walnut products, honey, and etc., will increase through consciencious use of fertilizers for quality production and disease protection. By utilizing modern technology for packaging and cold storage, youth entrepreneurs can transform the Kashmirhorticulture industry.
