However, there is a significant difference in the productivity of various horticultural commodities among different eco-regions, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, which have the potential for significant horticultural production. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a sustained and steady growth in rural income to improve living standards for various stakeholders.\n\nTo address this issue, appropriate strategies need to be devised for climatically vulnerable regions. Farmers net income can be increased by efficient management of nutrients, water, and agri-inputs, integrated horticulture-based farming systems, better market price realization, post-harvest management.
