Germany to help horticulture center

SEMARANG, Central Java: Indonesia's Association of
Horticulture Businesspeople (Asperti) and the German government
have agreed to cooperate in the construction of an agribusiness
training center.

"The German government will send two experts," Asperti
chairman Doddy Satrya Indrawan said as quoted by Antara here on
Thursday.

He said the provincial government provided a 30-hectare plot
for the training center where farmers and students will spend
between three months and four months.

According to Doddy, the German trainers will have considerable
experience in the field.
