We have family land in different places in Goa and are looking at developing one in particular(about 2 acres) but are unsure exactly what to grow! The land currently has the following trees - Coconut, Jackfruit, Mango, Cashew growing freely.
Any suggestions on what such land could be used to grow as a profitable business?

Goa is blessed with tourism and thus cash crops such as fruits and vegetables are good choices. Having said that growing them in hot humid climate along with heavy rains is a big challenge and this is where you should consider Hydroponics with controlled environment management.

Hi I am atul Kalaskar from Pune and I am hydroponics grower. I have successfully grown Strawberries, Melons and color capsicum. Growing fresh vegetables is also a great option since you are able to bring manufacturing industry efficiency in Agriculture.

You can view my proof of concept on Strawberries here.

I am also associated with Agriculture Information.com as a Hydroponic Consultant.
