CERTIFICATE IN NURSERY MANAGEMENT
Course Details
Demand for varieties of flowering, fruit and ornamental plants has been growing day by day particularly in cities and towns. With the growth and spread of large cities and towns with large residential areas for families and public recreation the demand for the horticultural plants has increased manifold. The emergence of an affluent society and the increasing interest of people for maintaining these plants for decorative purposes are some of the reasons for such growing demand. People are interested to maintain many ornamental and flowering plants in high rise buildings, offices, factories, business houses, hospitals, hotels, roof tops, backyards, roadsides in towns and cities. Thus, there is a continuous and increasing demand for planting materials of the horticultural crops. Besides these, many important fruits bearing and other crops like vegetables have good demand for planting in domestic gardens or homesteads. People for such crops/plants entirely depend on the commercial nurseries.
Nursery raising technique has, therefore, become an income generating process. Nursery business today has ample scope for self employment with minimum capital investment in small or medium land holdings.
Keeping this in view, the course on “Commercial Nursery Management for Horticultural Crops” is designed with the following objectives:
(a) To provide the learners with the scientific knowledge on nursery raising techniques for producing quality planting materials of horticultural crops.
(b) To develop the required skill for proper management of the commercial nursery of horticultural crops.
