Clean Plant Programme (CPP) under Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture

In Union Cabinet, the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, approved the Clean Plant Programme (CPP) proposed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare. The Clean Plant Programme is set to significantly boost India’s horticultural sector while aligning with Mission LiFE and the One Health initiatives. The Clean Plant Programme will provide access to virus-free, high-quality planting material, leading to increased crop yields and improved income opportunities.

The Clean Plant Programme, which has been approved by the Cabinet is an ambitious initiative to revolutionize India’s horticulture sector. It will ensure healthier and high-quality plants are encouraged. This programme will be a crucial step toward establishing India as a leading global exporter of fruits and driving transformative change across the sector. Nine world class state-of-the-art CPCs, equipped with advanced diagnostic therapeutics and tissue culture labs, will be established across India.
