Broccoli is a high-value vegetable that has seen explosive demand growth in India over the past decade. With increasing health awareness and expansion of modern retail, broccoli now commands premium prices year-round. However, broccoli requires cool temperatures (15–22°C) that are achievable in most of India only under Agrifirst's climate-controlled polyhouse conditions.
