Orchid production and research in Japan

  • Chapter
Orchid Biology

Abstract

Old statistics are available regarding orchid production in Aichi prefecture in Japan. The value of orchids produced in 1965 was 15 730 000 yen ($43 694, $1 = 360 yen). In 1991 production reached 6 887 181 000 yen ($49 194 150, $1 = 140 yen), which is a 438-fold increase in 26 years. Production of all potted ornamental plants increased 1.93-fold in pot number and 4.45-fold in volume between 1975 and 1991. The increase in potted orchid production was considerably greater, being 2.45-fold in number and 7.95-fold in volume (Fig. 5-1). The total production of pot plants in Japan during 1991 was 204 762 000 pots valued at 100 564 797 000 yen ($718 319 979). Orchid pot-production was 8.4% (17 211 000) of the number of pots and 29.7% ($213 341 457) of the volume. Production of orchid-pots in Aichi prefecture alone was 27.9% of the number and 23.1% of the volume (Figs. 5-2, 5-3 ).
