Why was Professor Lieth hired by the FAS to Montenegro?

• A. To study climate data
• B. To do a workshop on flower production
• C. To observe architecture
• D. To recruit workers

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that the mission was about transferring practical skills in floriculture. Inviting a professor to Montenegro fits a capacity-building goal: provide hands-on training on how to grow, manage, and harvest flowers. A workshop on flower production would give local growers proven techniques, best practices for greenhouse management, propagation, post-harvest handling, pest and disease control, and quality improvement. That kind of knowledge transfer directly boosts production and efficiency, which is exactly what such an overseas outreach mission aims to accomplish.

The other options don’t align with that purpose. Studying climate data would be more about gathering information for research rather than training producers; observing architecture isn’t related to flower production; recruiting workers is about staffing rather than educating or improving production methods.
