Application of science and technology in chrysanthemum production

In order to proactively supply the source of chrysanthemum production in place, Vinh City People's Committee in collaboration with the North Central Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology successfully researched high quality, clean daisy flower varieties suitable for ecological areas. and flower consumption in Vinh City as well as neighboring districts.

After nine months of research, the North Central Agricultural Science and Technology Institute has now produced more than 10,000 tissue culture plants and transferred more than 30,000 mother plants to 10 households in four communes: Nghi Kim, Nghi An, Nghi Lien and Hung Dong.

From this model initially provided tens of thousands of seedlings for farmers to produce winter crops.

Seedlings are currently growing uniformly, healthy and without pathological signs. Flower varieties meet the tastes of consumers in the region, the price is cheaper than importing from other places and bringing sustainability.

The creation of disease-free maternal chrysanthemum plant varieties, breeding techniques are easy to apply, very suitable to production and consumption requirements in the region.

In addition to economic efficiency, new varieties also contribute to increasing the rate of new varieties and high quality seeds in production. The original varieties are kept in the mother plant garden and in vitro. From these original varieties can be propagated in large quantities for production, through breeding techniques by tissue culture.

In particular, the breeding technique by tissue culture will provide the production of high quality and disease-free daisy chrysanthemums, gradually replace the old poor quality daisy varieties.

The results obtained from the models have helped farmers access and apply scientific and technological advances, use new and disease-free varieties in production, create uniform and high-quality flower products. , to meet market requirements, bring about great economic efficiency compared to traditional production.

In the coming time, Vinh city continued to coordinate with the North Central Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology to establish ecological regions to multiply and link production and business of disease-free chrysanthemum plants, contributing to diversifying crops. In particular, it helps farmers to be proactive in the source of daisy flower seeds, creating products with large quantities and uniform quality to meet the market's requirements, raising incomes for people.
