The Nepal Greenhouse Program is a transformative initiative dedicated to promoting protected cultivation and climate-resilient agriculture across Nepal's diverse ecological zones. By supporting the construction of low-cost plastic houses, polyhouses, and sustainable greenhouses, the program enables smallholder farmers — especially in high-altitude, mid-hill, and Terai regions — to grow off-season vegetables, high-value crops, and nutritious produce throughout the year. Through subsidies, technical training, seed support, and community-based models, it addresses challenges such as erratic weather, frost, heavy monsoon rains, and short growing seasons. The program contributes to improved household income, enhanced nutrition, reduced import dependency, and stronger food security while aligning with Nepal's goals for sustainable agriculture and climate adaptation.

Launched to support rural livelihoods in the face of climate change, the Nepal Greenhouse Program combines government subsidies, NGO partnerships, and local cooperative efforts to make protected farming accessible even to marginalised and remote communities.
