Department of Horticulture and Plantation
Horticulture is a branch of agriculture that deals with the art, science, technology, and business of plant cultivation. Although horticulture is a division of agriculture which deals with plant gardening, it is actually different from agriculture. Further, horticulture strictly involves plant cultivation while agriculture deals with the cultivation of crops as well as animal farming. Also, horticulture is usually done on smaller, enclosed plots while agriculture is done on extensive pieces of land on a large scale. In India, horticulture is promoted by the National Horticulture Board (NHB). In this article, we look at the subsidy for horticulture in India.
