The establishment of an independent institute ‘Directorate of Floricultural Research’ by ICAR at Pusa, New Delhi, was a positive step to strengthen the existing network of AICRP on Floriculture and also in making them more focussed and research oriented. Newly established Directorate of Floricultural Research with the help of AICRP network is playing an important role in strengthening floricultural research and augmenting the technological base in floriculture in different regions of the country. Outreach of the technologies and creating awareness about the benefits of practicing floriculture among rural population is the need of the hour, which would be achieved through the network of coordinated centres spread all over the country.

Floriculture is a multifaceted enterprise in India. It is characterized by growing traditional flowers loose flowers) and cut flowers under open field conditions and protected environment conditions respectively. India also has a strong dry flower industry, with substantial contribution (>70%) to floricultural exports.
Other floricultural segments like fillers, indoor plants, landscaping plants, seeds and planting material, turf grass and value added products also contribute their share in the overall growth of the sector.
The traditional flower cultivation, comprising of growing loose flowers mostly for worship, garland making and decorations, forms the backbone of India floriculture, which is mostly in the hands of small and marginal farmers. About 3.00 lakh ha of area is under loose flower cultivation producing 1840000 MT of flowers annually (2014-15). The major production comes from Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand, Kerala and Telangana while the major markets are in Chennai, Bengaluru, Kolkata....
Research comprises "creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of humans, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications."
The erstwhile All India Coordinated Research Project on Floriculture started at 5 centres located at Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi.....
The truth is, most of the 1.8 million (!!!) scientific papers published each year are fairly trivial in the grand scheme of things. However, the process of scientific publication creates a mindset that is vital for science to progress.
