Dracaena fragrans cv. Victoria is a significant ornamental foliage crop with high economic potential, particularly in the context of rapid urbanization and increasing demand for indoor greenery. Unlike traditional field crops such as rice and maize, which are primarily grown for food security but often generate low income due to price volatility and production risks, ornamental foliage crops are quality-driven and market-oriented (Darras, 2020). Dracaena requires relatively less land and water and is well suited for protected cultivation, resulting in higher returns per unit area (Chen et al., 2005). Yield in ornamental crops is measured by the number and quality of marketable plants rather than grain weight, making them economically advantageous compared to cereals (Relf, 2008). This article highlights the importance, economics of cultivation, yield concept, and comparative profitability of Dracaena fragrans cv. Victoria vis-?-vis rice and maize, emphasizing its role in crop diversification and sustainable horticulture.
