Horticulture refers to the art and science of growing fruits, vegetables, flowers and other plants for human food, non-food uses and social needs. India is the domicile for numerous horticultural crops of commercial significance. 30% of the India’s GDP accounts from horticulture and provides about 37.1% of the total exports of agricultural commodities. In 2017-2018, approximately 306.8 million tones production have been estimated and shared about 33% of total agricultural production. Horticulture in Bihar is facing several challenges like, inadequate availability of planting materials, rein fed horticulture, dearth of market facility, post-harvest management, lack of processing facilities and insufficient trained manpower etc. The production and marketing of fruits and vegetables suffer from a number of constraints. Present paper provides a study on the development of horticultural product in Bihar. This study will be helpful to encourage researchers to advance the horticultural development with post-harvest management of the crops in India and other developing countries.
