National-level horticulture expo in Feb

In an ambitious bid to provide much-needed thrust to the State's horticulture sector, a national-level horticultural expo is being planned by the Assam Agriculture Department. The event would take place from February 10 to 14 next year at the Sankardeva Kalakshetra, where some permanent landscaping would also take place. The event will involve not just the agriculture departments of all the States, but would witness the participation of private sector and NGOs, especially those organisations using new technologies.
