Evaluation of ornamental sunflower for value addition

An experiment was conducted at College of Horticulture, GKVK, campus, Bengaluru, UHS, Bagalkot during 2012-13 to study the suitability of ornamental sunflower for dry flower production. Highest flower weight loss was with corn meal and silica gel (90.75 and 88.45 per cent). Silica gel followed by bo...

Flower appearance was best with silica gel (4.44) which was at par with control with a score of 3.81.
