Description Capsicum (syn. Sweet pepper, Shimla Mirch, Bell Pepper) is a high value vegetable and an important cash crop of temperate regions. It is used as salad, cooked as vegetable, pickled or processed and is appreciated world wide for its flavour, aroma and colour. It is an important source of pro-vitamin A (in the red stage) and vitamin C. The crop originated in new world tropics and subtropics (Greenleaf, 1986) and was introduced in India by Britishers in the 19th century in Shimla (HP.) and Nilgiri hills (Tamilnadu). However, capsicum is now cultivated widely in Karnataka, Tamilnadu, Himachal Pradesh, Utrakhand and Darjeeling district of West Bengal (Singh et al. 1993).
