India has enormous potential as an exporter of
agricultural commodities ranging from mushrooms
to flowers, spices, cereals, oilseeds and
vegetables. The spurt in government support for
export of agri-products has evoked considerable
interest among the large business houses which
have worked out agreements for technology
transfer, marketing tie-ups, and management and
trading contacts with leading foreign
counterparts. Horticulture with its offshoot
floriculture has become a focus of export
activity. Indias exports of roses, carnations,
gladioli, chrysanthemums, jasmine and other
tropical plants and flowers are touching new
heights.
