Horticultural crops are high value crops ensuring maximum returns to the growers with multiple scopes for value addition. Horticulture includes fruits, vegetables, floriculture, medicinal and aromatic plants. The sector has established its importance in improving land use, promoting crop diversification, generating employment and above all providing nutritional security to the people. India has made a fairly good progress on the horticulture scenario of the world. The major crops in case of fruits are mango, banana, citrus, apple, pineapple and in case of vegetables are potato, onion, tomato and other seasonal vegetables. Market driven agriculture prescribes quality in every stage of production and total quality management is a challenge to the horticulturist.

The average per capita availability of fruits and vegetables in India is inadequate to meet requirements for nutritional and protective diet of the population. Of the total horticulture production, only 67 % is used for local consumption while 30 % is subjected to post harvest losses, 2 % for export and 0.8 % for processing. There is immense scope for developing horticultural produce market. Changing food habits, life styles and health consciousness and purchasing power have created an unprecedented opportunity for farmers and horticultural entrepreneurs.
