Abstract/Contents: | Highlights a report of the Agriculture Economic Research Service (ERS). The report finds floriculture and horticulture is the fastest-growing sector of U.S. agriculture, and that the environmental-horticulture industry fluctuates with the economy. Weather is also a factor in the industry, with more suppliers using greenhouses and shelters to extend growing seasons. Americans spent about 37 billion on environmental horticulture in 1997. |
