Deputy Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia, Sudaryono, welcomes ornamental plants as an important commodity that now has high economic value.

"What we are witnessing at the FLOII Expo is proof that ornamental plants that may not have thought of having economic value are now important commodities. Subtropical countries are used to flowers, but Indonesia as a tropical country has unmatched uniqueness," he said, quoting Antara.

According to him, exhibition events are an important step to connect local business actors with international markets. "The implementation of the FLOII Expo 2024 can be the right momentum to advance the Indonesian ornamental plant industry to the international market. The development of ornamental plants will also have an impact on improving the country's economy."

Carrying the theme "Evolutionary & Revolutionary Elegance: The Beauty of Genetic Diversity in Floriculture". The exhibition will last until Sunday (8/11).
