Good News for The African Flower Exports
We carried a report about the collapse of the market in flowers due to COVID a couple of months ago, when Kenyan farmers were forced to throw away millions of roses in March as Europe sealed borders; weddings were put on hold, and funerals scaled back. But demand is returning as restrictions ease and growers are hoping it will recover fully by 2021. Europe accounts for nearly 70% of Kenya’s cut flower exports and the lockdown had slashed daily orders by half, threatening thousands of jobs. Flower export is one of Kenya’s top 3 foreign exchange earners and generated nearly $1bn dollars in 2019. Ethiopia was similarly affected by the downturn in flower sales to the EU.

My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am nervous about
switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net.
Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I saw similar here: Sklep online
