After the success of Aroma Mission, the #FloricultureMission launched by the #CSIR is also registering one success after the other. Close on the heels of Tulip success, the “Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology” #IHBT #Palampur, Himachal Pradesh, has achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first in the country to develop a comprehensive agrotechnology package for unique flower growth #Peony (Paeonia lactiflora). This breakthrough opens new avenues for high-value floriculture, especially in India’s high-hill regions, boosting farmers’ income and sustainable agricultural growth.



Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu on Monday flagged off the state’s first-ever commercial shipment of cut flowers to Guwahati, signalling a new chapter for local floriculture. The consignment of 2,000 Asiatic Lilium stems from Lower Subansiri district earned around ₹1 lakh for farmers, highlighting the sector’s income potential. Backed by the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture, the initiative aims to promote large-scale, high-quality flower cultivation suited to the state’s unique climate and soil conditions. #thesentinel #ArunachalPradesh #PemaKhandu
