Estimating the Cost of Building a Polyhouse: A Detailed Breakdown
Welcome to the world of micro polyhouse gardening, a revolutionary approach to urban farming that brings the benefits of traditional polyhouse farming to smaller spaces. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the wonders of polyhouse gardening, including the use of Sadabahar Vertical Gardens and recommendations for suitable urban plants. Whether you are an experienced gardener or just starting out, this introduction will equip you with the knowledge you need to embark on your polyhouse gardening journey and create a flourishing urban farm.
Embracing Micro Polyhouse Gardening:
Micro polyhouse gardening is the adaptation of polyhouse techniques to smaller spaces, making it ideal for urban environments with limited room. With the use of Sadabahar Vertical Gardens, which allow plants to be grown vertically, you can maximize the use of available space and grow a variety of crops in an organized and space-saving manner.
The price of erecting a polyhouse varies depending on the type of polyhouse Without cooling pads and exhaust addict systems, a low-tech polyhouse will bring between Rs. 400 and Rs. 500 per forecourt meter. Medium-priced, medium-tech polyhouse with cooling pads and exhaust addict systems costs between Rs. 900 and Rs. 1200 per forecourt meter( without robotization). High-tech polyhouses bring between Rs. 2500 and Rs. 4000 per forecourt meter with a completely automatic control system.
In India, the cost of building a polyhouse can vary based on factors such as location, size, materials used, and specific requirements. Here is a detailed breakdown of the components and costs involved in constructing a polyhouse in India:

- Support columns and beams
Cost: The cost of the structural framework can range from ₹80 to ₹150 per square foot of the polyhouse area.
Covering Material:
- Polyethylene film (most common and cost-effective)
- Polycarbonate panels (more durable and expensive)
- Glass panels (high-end option with greater longevity)
Cost: The cost of the covering material can range from ₹20 to ₹70 per square foot, depending on the type and quality chosen.
Ventilation and Cooling:
- Exhaust fans
