How Agrifirst Helps You Succeed
Agrifirst's well-ventilated polyhouse provides the Mediterranean-like conditions rosemary thrives in — warm, dry, with good air circulation. Our structures protect rosemary from India's humid monsoon conditions that cause root rot in open fields. With Agrifirst's precise drip irrigation, farmers maintain the slightly dry conditions rosemary prefers while producing premium, aromatic harvests year-round.
Expected earnings: ₹6–14 lakhs per acre annually with Agrifirst polyhouse rosemary cultivation.
