IGO Microgreens Farming Projects
INTRODUCTION
Microgreens are young, tender edible seedlings of vegetables and herbs harvested at 7–21 days after germination. They are nutrient-dense, rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, making them a “superfood” category product. With increasing awareness of health and nutrition, microgreens have become a high-demand product among urban consumers, restaurants, and wellness industries. This project aims to establish a commercial microgreen cultivation unit under a controlled rooftop/indoor environment, supported by a Setup, buyback & AMC service model. The objective is to provide clients with an end-to-end cultivation setup, training, and marketing support while ensuring product quality and profitability.
