Nursery Management - The wholesale nursery market plays a vital role in the green-industry supply chain. With hundreds of thousands of acres planted across North America, nursery operations of varying sizes provide containerized and field-grown trees, shrubs and perennials. Nursery growers make significant capital investments in their crops, many of which are in the ground or in containers for years before they're ready for market. These nursery products grace home and commercial landscapes, city parks and urban forests. Nursery plants are vital to the economic and physical health of communities contributing to cleaner air, cleaner water, wildlife habitats, lower utility bills, higher land values and happier citizens. Nursery Management is the leading trade publication serving wholesale nursery growers. We provide the latest production, marketing and business management tips to help growers increase their profits.
