Introduction:

Carrots are easy to grow in a garden with deep, loose soil; and as you may have guessed from the name, they are packed with beta carotene. A 1/2 cup serving gives you four times the Recommended Daily Allowance of vitamin A in the form of beta carotene. Growing and harvesting carrots is a great way to take advantage of their nutritional benefits. Carrot Farming plays a major role in the Indian economy as it is a major vegetable crop in India.

Varieties of Carrots in India:

  • Hills: Ooty-1, Early Nantes and New Koroda
  • Plains: India Gold, Pusa Kesar, and Half Long Danvers

Best Soil for Growing Carrots:

Carrot is a cool climate season crop and when grown at 15°C to 20°C will develop good color. The carrot crop needs a deep loose loamy soil. It requires a pH ranging from 6.0 to 7.0 for higher yielding.https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.510.1_ru.html#goog_620771810https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.510.1_ru.html#goog_620771812
