As opportunities developed from these challenges, AFE supported research to enhance product quality, share best practices, and improve profits leading to a more successful floral industry. Many projects have been funded at universities and colleges across the U.S. through the years. Results from these projects have led to new production practices, postharvest &amp; shipping procedures, reduced losses from pests &amp; diseases, and improved longer lasting flowers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;
