In urban and sub-urban areas the
growing of fruits and vegetables is much restricted due to migration of peoples
and expansion of residential areas. Roof gardening is a recent concept
primarily intended for continuous supply of fresh fruits, vegetables through
the year for family use.
Apart from this, medicinal plants grown in roof garden
can cure certain human diseases. Family members residing in urban and rural
areas can easily establish and maintain the roof garden. A one day training
programme on “Roof gardening” will be conducted by the TNAU Information and
Training Centre on 18-10-2012 (Thursday) between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm.
The programme will be useful to
