India, a densely populated country with approximately one-fifth of the world's population and over 70 percent of farming households, faces a significant challenge. While the annual population growth rate is approximately 1.8 percent, the demand for food is expected to grow by 3 percent or more per annum in the upcoming years. Consequently, there is a pressing need to increase food production annually by 3.5 percent. Vegetables play a vital role in a balanced human diet, providing essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals, and are crucial to global nutritional security. In India, vegetables account for 58.73 percent of the total horticultural production, as per the research conducted by (Jena et al. 2018). In the year 2019-20, India produced 188284 thousand MT of vegetables from an area of 10310 thousand hectares.
