Plot

Growing garlic in the industrial scale implies the existence of land the size of about twenty acres (the minimum required of 10 x 20 meters). Perfect for small business plot, but in the absence of land for agricultural purposes can be rented. When searching for a suitable place to prefer sandy soils, or land the type of mold, which are the most fertile and allow you to grow a really good crop.

To Lease land within the Moscow region, of course, too expensive for the budding entrepreneur. So, the plot of land (twenty acres) near the metro station "River station" will cost 185 rubles per month, i.e. for the year would have to pay more than two million in rent. In the same Smolensk region, for example, rent the same plot will be only 20 thousand rubles/month, or 240 thousand per year.

The Type and variety of garlic

Having Determined the land for planting, attention should be paid to the choice of the type and varieties of garlic and the purchase of planting material. The cultivation of garlic as a business ideally involves the implementation of large quantities of product with a long shelf life, in addition, it is desirable to obtain the largest bulbs and cloves — such a product is implemented faster. But each type has its advantages and disadvantages:

  1. Growing spring garlic allows to obtain a product with a long shelf life, but the small size of bulbs and cloves, you can also face low yields.

  2. The Cultivation of winter garlic as the business is more profitable as it allows to achieve high yield and large size bulbs, but that garlic is bad persists, there is a risk of freezing.

As for the varieties, it is best for the business organization to consider the following:

  1. Lyubasha. Differs unpretentiousness to weather conditions and good keeping quality (storage duration), frost.

  2. Ukrainian purple and white. Garlic is very well maintained, the yield is about two hundred pounds one hundred square meters of land.

  3. Saved. The variety is perfectly preserved, resistant to diseases and parasites. The yield of garlic is equal to twenty tons of product per hectare.

  4. Kharkiv purple. Hardy and relatively resistant to diseases, yield of garlic medium — can be obtained about one hundred and twenty kilograms of the product from the ground weave.

  6. Benefit. Adapts to different climatic conditions, different frost, shelf life (stored up to ten months).

Planting material

The Cultivation of garlic as the business will require the purchase of a batch of planting material. For planting twenty acres will need to thousands of cloves of garlic. So, with an average weight of one clove of 15-20 grams (grade school) need to buy about twenty pounds of garlic, which will cost 2200 rubles.

Equipment, inventory and employees

Growing garlic in the industrial scale, of course, requires the involvement of agricultural machinery, so as to sow twenty acres alone is pretty labor-intensive. So, you can rent a tractor is not the period of active work. To purchase the same equipment to complete personal use is not quite appropriate. In addition, you will need shovels, rakes and watering cans.

Permanent staff growing garlic as the business requires. In the period of planting and harvesting is possible for a small fee to bring the works of local pensioners, students or unemployed.

Production Technology

Garlic, growing methods which differ slightly depending on the type, in General not too demanding to care for. Spring planting is done in April - first half of may, winter — in late September - early October. The first type must be planted in the furrow tightly enough between the teeth should be left about ten inches,and between the rows — fifteen or twenty. For winter garlic the distance should be ten or twelve inches between the cloves and aboutthirty between rows.

Planting material — garlic (cultivation and care in the open ground which was described in the review in enough detail) - need to be disinfected before boarding. To do this, two solutions are prepared:

  1. Six tablespoons of regular table salt to ten litres of water.

  2. One tablespoon (or three teaspoons) of copper sulfate for the same amount of clean water.

In the first part of the planting material should be lowered to two and a half minutes, the second — for a minute. Then you can start planting, but garlic should be washed with clean water.

business plan for growing garlic

Care means regular weeding beds (if necessary), and timely watering. Winter garlic in the fall is better to cover with fir twigs, dry leaves or a special material. In the spring you should remove all the excess from the beds. In addition, in the spring the plants can be fed with urea, from time to time (twice a month) the garlic should be fertilized. Increasing the shooter it is better to nip off — so the garlic, the cultivation and care in the open ground which does not cause any problems, grows larger.

The harvest takes place in mid-July (for winter) or late August (for spring garlic). When you need to cut the garlic, rinse and dry the product in natural conditions (under light canopy on fresh air) at least during the week. Ready for sale this product should be stored in wooden boxes in a well ventilated area.

  • Pharmaceutical companies;

  • Canneries and meat processing enterprises;

  • Resellers and vegetable outlets (small wholesale);

  • A large network of retail stores.

Initial capital

So, summarizing the above, we can say that a small business in the cultivation of garlic to further the implementation of the product requires a significant financial investment. Need only:

  • Rent a plot of land (taken into account an area of twenty acres), which cost an average of two hundred and forty thousand rubles a year;

  • To purchase planting material in the required amount, the cost of which will amount to three thousand roubles;

  • Buy shovels, watering cans, rakes and other equipment and enlist the help of several employees;

  • To pay for the water used for watering flower beds, and buy fertilizer, fertilizing.

So, for a business organization on the cultivation and realization of garlic at first, will require from ten to hundred thousand roubles.

Return business

With twenty acres of land to collect four tons of garlic (variety: Ukrainian white and purple), or more — depending on the growing conditions, varieties and other nuances. If the wholesale price of one hundred and ten rubles per kilogram revenue for the entire product will amount to four hundred and forty thousand. The business will pay for itself in just one season.

If we arrange retail sales, then you can earn more: one million two hundred thousand rubles. However, to sell four tons of the product retail is not so simple.So, a business plan for growing garlic with a reasonable approach on the part of the entrepreneur has all the chances of successful implementation and high profits.
