Introduction
• Floriculture has emerged as an important agribusiness, providing
employment opportunities and entrepreneurship in urban, peri-urban and
rural areas.
• Floriculture in India is largely practiced by traditional flower growers on
small scale, using traditional methods of cultivation .
• Most of the farmers sell their flowers daily in local market themselves or
through middlemen who collects their produce.
• Since flowers are highly perishable so farmer has to sell the produce even
at lower price.
• So far very little efforts have been done on entrepreneurs development.
• Community can setup small enterprises where value addition in the form
of bouquets and flower arrangements, dry flower making, essential oil
extraction etc. can be taken up.

Indian scenario of Value addition
• The Indian floriculture industry comprises the florist trade, nursery plants,
potted plants, bulbs and seed production, micro propagated materials, dried
flowers, dried foliage and extraction of oil from flowers.
• India is the 5th largest exporter of dried flowers, and second largest exporter of
dried foliage in the world accounting for around 7% of the world exports in dry
flowers and foliage.
• The main export markets for Indian dry flower industry are USA, Netherlands,
UK and Germany.
• India is the largest exporter of jasmine oil in the world accounting for over 40%
of total world exports in jasmine oil.
• Dried flowers and plants constitute the bulk of the export from our country.
• Export of value added product e.g. oil (extracted in small units set up in
production zones) can help generate substantial revenue in international
market rather than the raw material i.e fresh flowers

  • 2. Introduction • Floriculture has emerged as an important agribusiness, providing employment opportunities and entrepreneurship in urban, peri-urban and rural areas. • Floriculture in India is largely practiced by traditional flower growers on small scale, using traditional methods of cultivation . • Most of the farmers sell their flowers daily in local market themselves or through middlemen who collects their produce. • Since flowers are highly perishable so farmer has to sell the produce even at lower price. • So far very little efforts have been done on entrepreneurs development. • Community can setup small enterprises where value addition in the form of bouquets and flower arrangements, dry flower making, essential oil extraction etc. can be taken up. Indian Council of Agricultural Research - Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Pusa, New Delhi-110012
