Producing commercial bulbs might not be a good small enterprise for people in developing countries, but I have often thought that collecting seeds might be, especially for women who are out anyway tending flocks or gathering food and other useful plants. If a competent local person could be trained to consolidate the seeds and teach others how to identify what is wanted, perhaps to prepare identifiable pressed specimens, and send the results on for payment, I think this could work. As for finding an appropriate "manager," my work in field linguistics taught me that in every small population there are intellectuals, perhaps people who never attended school but who have directed their intelligence toward whatever is of interest around them; some are superb linguistic informants, and some of them are remarkable "folk botanists." (I even knew an Athabaskan woman blind from early childhood who gathered food and medicinal plants by touch and smell; she used her remaining senses to tell when she was in a habitat where the desired plants were likely to grow.)
