| Experiment Title | Standardization of growing media for coriander under vertical growing system for urban peri-urban horticulture | ||
| Research Type | Departmental Research | ||
| Experiment Background | As gardening on house terraces or roof tops is gaining ample importance these days, leafy vegetables also got more prominence considering its nutritional value andease of cultivation. Leafy vegetables occupy a very important place in the human diet. The recommended dietary allowance of leafy vegetable for an adult person is 125 g per day (Anon., 2013). Growing vegetables in vertical container gardening is a way to offer convenience and affordability of fresh and organic vegetables for family consumption. With the right growing media many vegetables can be produced irrespective of the space. However, majority of urban residents living in very small holdings or flats lack the basic requirement for farming viz., quality growing media for filling the container or growbags. Coriander being a new crop to urban households under container gardening it is essential to formulate an ideal growth medium for its easy and successful cultivation. | ||
