About fruit-bearing vegetables

cpc code 0123 covers the production of fruit-bearing vegetables, a vital segment of the agricultural industry. These crops, which include tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and zucchini, among others, are an essential source of nutrients, vitamins, and fiber in the human diet. They are widely consumed both fresh and processed, and play a significant role in the global food supply chain. The fruit-bearing vegetable industry is a major contributor to the broader agricultural economy, providing employment and income for farmers, processors, and distributors worldwide.

Production process

The production of fruit-bearing vegetables typically involves a combination of traditional farming methods and modern agricultural technologies. Growers often utilize techniques such as crop rotation, irrigation, and integrated pest management to optimize yields and ensure the quality of their produce. Many also employ greenhouse or hydroponic systems to extend the growing season and enhance control over environmental factors. Harvesting and post-harvest handling procedures are critical to maintaining the freshness and shelf-life of these perishable crops.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the fruit-bearing vegetable industry include fertile soil, water for irrigation, and a range of agricultural inputs such as seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides. Specialized machinery, such as tractors, tillers, and harvesting equipment, is also essential for efficient production. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce to carry out planting, tending, and harvesting activities, as well as processing and distribution operations.
