Plant and flower growers have contended with volatile agricultural prices, weakening demand from florists and an influx of low-cost imports through the end of 2023. However, COVID-19 led to a plant and flower growth surge due to a demand for home improvement materials and landscaping services. Also, plant and flower growers occupy a position of strong bargaining power in the supply chain, selling primary products predominantly to wholesales but, more importantly, not to processors. Amid the pandemic, agricultural operators who sold primarily to processors endured stiff price drops due to bottlenecks in processing capacity, causing raw inputs to flood the farm gate. This was different for growers in this industry. In turn, plant and flower grower revenue has increased by a CAGR of 3.2% to reach $19.3 billion over the five years to 2024, including a 1.2% drop in 2024 alone.
Industry revenue has grown at a CAGR of 3.2 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $19.3bn in 2024.
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
