Shade net for Kolar
A University of Agricultural Sciences study found Kolar had 16% of Karnataka's tomato area but 28% of its output, and the market handles about three lakh crates a day from May to September. Researchers have studied tomato growers using shade nets in Kolar, Malur and Mulbagal taluks, and one Kolar nursery sold up to a lakh tomato seedlings a day during a price spike. Studies in Karnataka also found shade-net tomato nurseries cost more to set up than open nurseries but earned more.
