1. One of the challenges for African flower and foliage producers is the need to ensure that the products reach the final consumers in good quality. Must they then produce and market their own products that are more tolerant to the stresses of long shipping or continue to produce traditional European flowers which are difficult and expensive to transport?
2. What types of upgrading can producers in Africa conveniently adopt to ensure increased recognition and participation in the floriculture chain?
3. How much value does the agent or distributor add to a bouquet of flowers or bunch of roses from Africa before it reaches the final consumers? How can this be accurately calculated to ensure fair prices to the men and women who work on flower farms in Africa?
4. Knowing that flower production depends on availability of water, how long can the water bodies in Africa continue to feed flower production and still have enough for human consumption and, importantly, remain unpolluted?
