Hi,
I am from IT and want to start Spice Farming.
Need help in deciding which is the best one to do and at which place?
what will be the capital required?
Can we get any help from any NGO or govt for the same?

Thanks,
Kumar Sourabh
 

Hiya,
there are a lot of government subsidies and grant schemes for farmers who want to do horticultural crops, so I think you could get help from the National Horticultural Board website. I also know-someone-who-knows-someone who is a CA that specifically helps people get these funds...but as there is no posting of contact info allowed here...send me inmail.

I recommend you start with something easy like chilly: it will cost you about Rs 35000 in cultivation cost per acre (not including cost of plant)and if you buy plug plants it will give you an output of 30 ton an acre i.e. 3 lakhs in revenue...traditional plants from seeds are also possible but performance will not be uniform and they might not all germinate...Try contacting this chap who is doing rosemary on this forum...

PS: why do all IT guys like going into farming?
