| The shortage of food for a substantial proportion of the world's population is a problem which has been challenging our society for a long time. In the 1972-1974 period an estimated 1.3 billion people subsisted in less developed countries with dietary energy supplies under the minimum nutritional requirements, and the current outlook is for a widening gap between needs and food supplies. Although progress has been made in production oriented research, such as the development of high yielding crop varieties and of better way to control pests and diseases, there is still a need for additional means to increase the world food supply.

| Uma das principais características da produção de flores e plantas ornamentais é que esta constitui atividade típica de pequenos produtores. Embora a floricultura brasileira venha se expandindo em áreas menos tradicionais como o Nordeste do país, a maior parte da produção ainda se concentra nas regiões Sul e Sudeste, e os dados sobre a distribuição de flores no Brasil indicam o estado de São Paulo como principal centro da produção nacional. O estado do Rio de Janeiro tem-se destacado, nesse contexto, como região potencial de expansão da produção e comercialização de flores e plantas ornamentais, com destaque para as variedades tropicais, de crescente aceitação internacional.Este trabalho analisa o segmento de distribuição de flores e plantas ornamentais no... |
