**Polyhouse farming is farming under full controlled condition., temperatures humidity, water fertilizers every thing is automated.

if done rightly around 6-7 lakhs net profit can earned in a year on one acre. Generally Gerkens, Bell pepper or Capsicum, or horticulture cut flowers can be cultivated. Mostly farmers prefer to cultivate crops for export purposes. Even domestic market crops also can be cultivated. There is no season restrictions any crop can grow any time that is the advantage. Pests and diseases can also be  easily controlled.
***Here are eight specialty crops worth growing:
Bamboo. Landscapers and homeowners are paying as much as $150 each for potted bamboo plants, and many growers are finding it hard to keep up with the demand. ...
Flowers. ...
Ginseng. ...
Ground Covers. ...
Herbs. ...
Landscaping Trees and Shrubs. ...
Mushrooms. ...
Ornamental Grasses.
**The most planted crops throughout the world are wheat and maize (corn). Rice and soybeans are other key staples. However, these are all relatively low yielding and do not make enough revenue per tonne of product produced. The highest yielding crops are sugar cane, sugar beet, and tomatoes

**A greenhouse (also called a glasshouse, or, if with sufficient heating, a hothouse) is a structure with walls and roof made chiefly of transparent material, such as glass, in which plants requiring regulated climatic conditions are grown.
**People grow tomatoes and flowers and other plants in them. A greenhouse stays warm inside, even during winter. Sunlight shines in and warms the plants and air inside. But the heat is trapped by the glass and can't escape.
**Hobby Greenhouses. A backyard greenhouse kit can provide a stable, warm environment where plants can be grown all year. They can also be used to get a jump start on the growing season, where plants, like tomatoes and peppers, are planted early and later moved out to the garden

Israel companies are pioneers in this type of farming. even in deserts also crops can be grown with limited water availability.

Coming to the recent costs in Telangana for Israel polyhouse

This is for area of 4000 sq.ft./acre

Total cost is Rs 33.75lakhs/acre

State government subsidy -25.3lakhs /acre

Farmers contribution around  -Rs. 8.45lakhs/acer

***Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) commonly known as Transwal Daisy or African Daisy is an important flower grown throughout the world under wide range of climatic conditions.

Gerbera belongs to the family Compositae and is native to South African and Asiatic regions.

In India, it is distributed in the temperate Himalayas from Kashmir to Nepal at altitudes of 1300 to 3200 M.

1. Climate: Gerbera cultivation can be done under wide range of climatic conditions. In tropical climate, gerbera flowers are grown in the open but in subtropical and temperate climate they are protected from frost and cultivated in greenhouse/shade net house.

Day temperature of 22 –25C and night temperature of 12C to 16C is ideal for cultivation. It requires approximately 400 w/m2 light intensity on the plant level.

2. Soil and its preparation: A well drained, rich, light, neutral or slightly alkaline soil (ph 6.5 to 8.0) is most suitable for gerbera cultivation and production.

The roots of Gerbera go as deep as 50-70 cm.  Therefore soil should be highly porus and well drained upto 50 cm to have better root growth and better penetration of roots.

Land should be ploughed deep 2-3 times and brought to a fine tilth. Raised beds of 30 cm height, 1.0 -1.2 mt width should be prepared leaving 30-50 cm between two beds. Well decomposed FYM, sand and coconut peat/paddy husk in 2.1:1 proportion should be added to the beds.

3. Soil sterilization: Before starting gerbera cultivation, disinfection of the soil is absolutely necessary to minimize the infestation of soil borne pathogens like Phytophthora, Fusarium and Pythium which could otherwise destroy the crop completely.

The beds should be drenched/fumigated with 2% formaldehyde (100 ml Formalin in 5 lt. water/mt2 area or Methyl Bromide (30g/m2) solution and then covered with a plastic sheet for a minimum period of 2-3 days. Then beds should be watered thoroughly to drain the chemicals before planting.

GREENHOUSES/ POLYHOUSES AND ITS IMPORTANCE
The Greenhouses/polyhouses are constructed with the help of ultraviolet plastic sheets, so that they may last for more than 5 years. The structure is covered with 1501 m thick plastic sheet. The structure is prepared with the bamboos or iron pipes. Iron pipe structure is costly but more durable than bamboo.
Generally the length of the polyhouse is 25-30 feet and width 4-5 feet. The direction of polyhouse is always East to West, so that the maximum sunshine is available. The house should not be constructed in shade. The size of polyhouse may differ depending on the necessity. The polyhouses are kept cold or hot depending upon the season.
