Other General Information

Provide Details regarding:

Arunachal Pradesh has the agro-climatic advantage at tropical and temperate regions to grow verities of floricultural products in addition to rich genetic diversity. These factors are important for the investments in the sector advantageously.

Out of bout 1200 species of orchids reported so far from India, about 600 (nearest 50%) species of tropical, sub-tropical and temperate varieties are naturally occurring in Arunachal Pradesh. This rich concentration of orchids in the state may be attributed to theideal agro climatic industry factors like varied vegetationa1 types from tropical to Alpine, high rainfall and relative humidity in the atmosphere more or less throughout the year.

Orchids arc known worldwide for their multicolored long lasting quality cut

flowers. They occupy the top place in the world cut-flower trade market.

Realizing the commercial potential of orchids in the world floriculture market with over 75000 crores with increasing demand at over 4% per year, Government of India provided 1000 crores in VII plan and equal amount in the IX plan for promoting this sector, mainly orchids in North-East India.

Under the Prime Minister’s package for development of NE Region some infrastructure development activities are is progress. Guwahati Airport has been elevated to the international status. Cold storage units are being set up at  Guwahati and in Arunachal Pradesh. Small airports are being upgraded. North Eastern council, Shillong, NHB, APEDA are playing a vital role in encouraging the entrepreneurs in the floriculture field.

State forest Research Institute under the department of environment and Forests of Arunachal Pradesh has contributed significantly in the  field of orchidology by conducting research in developing protocols for orchids propagation through tissue culture on commercial scale, developing cultivation packages for various groups of orchids in various climatic zones and also successfully transferred the technology from lab to field and to some local tribal progressive farmers on small scale in west Kameng and lower Subansiri district areas in the state.

However, with improvement in the technologies and keeping in view of the highly competitive and sophisticated market in Europe ,USA, Japan etc. there is a need for adopting the modern cultivation techniques making use of green/poly houses with controlled environment to produce high quality, blameless cut-flower for export purposes. In order to achieve the same biotechnological approaches will have to be adopted in improving the quality of flowers by way of breeding, polyploidy experiment in propagating     the selected clones of hybrid orchids for large scale cultivation, effective post harvest technology, advanced packing technology and quick and safe transportation to be distinctions. This obviously warrants huge investment for creating infrastructure, commercial scale production   of seedling in T.C. lab and efficient system of management.

In addition to other floriculture plants like lillium, Gladiolus, Gerbera, Carnations, Anthurium also have great potentials in the floriculture industry with returns in Arunachal Pradesh as experiment at M/s Nana-Koo Agro Pvt. Ltd., Hapoli (Ziro).

 Accordingly, the project has been proposed for developing farming and trade of tropical, sub-tropical and temperate orchids as shown in the map of Arunachal Pradesh by involving local tribal and attracting investors with following objectives.

1.  Training in orchids propagation and  

     Commercial farming.

2.  Development of commercial orchids     

     farms/floriculture units at various places     

     of the State.

3.      Production of 5, 00,000 seedlings and cut-flowers of commercially potentials orchids hybrids and other like Lillium, Gladiolus etc.

4.      Development of Post-harvest and marketing infrastructure.
