A FACT BOOK ON THE FLORIDA WHOLESALE

WOODY ORNAMENTAL NURSERY INDUSTRY
COMPILED BY
CECIL N. SMITH

Foreword

The nursery industry in Florida from 1946 to the present has
grown faster than most segments of Florida agriculture. Not only
has this vast enterprise supplied the trees, shrubs, ground covers
and vines to landscape the premises of Florida's exploding popula-
tion, but it has also catered to demands for nursery stock from
other states and foreign countries.

Statistical data relating to the nursery industry are more
sparse than those for most other segments of agriculture. The
data available have been released in a wide group of publications
and it is often difficult for nurserymen and other interested
persons to acquire statistical background information on the nursery
industry. Numerous requests for information have been received by
various individuals and business concerns.

The purpose of this report is to bring together a compendium
of data on various aspects of the nursery industry and related
economic statistics--income, population and housing characteristics--
which relate to the demand for nursery stock. This report is intended
to serve as a reference source about economic characteristics of the
Florida nursery industry.

Special thanks are due Mr. Charles E. Shephard, Chief Plant
Inspector of the Division of Plant Industry, Florida Department of
Agriculture and members of his staff for compiling the data on
acreage and plant numbers on various classes of nursery stock. Apprec-
iation is expressed to Miss Elise Jones and Mrs. Charlotte Menke of the
Bureau of Economic and Business Research of the University of Florida
for their assistance in making available up-to-date statistics on
population, income, housing and tax collections. Dr. E. W. Cake,
Economist with the University of Florida Agricultural Extension Service,
is due gratitude for furnishing the data on nursery industry trends
presented in Table 15 and on the cover of this report.

Amounts per capital are based on population estimates of Bureau of Economic and
Business Research, University of Florida, for 1967, and on the 1960 Census of Pop-
ulation for 1960. Inmates and patients in state institutions are excluded from the
population in Alachua, Gadsden, and Union counties in 1960 and 1967, and in Baker,
Broward, Dade, DeSoto, Jackson, Lee, and Orange counties in 1967. The inmates and
patients of these institutions have not been excluded from the population in deter-
mining the income per capital of the state.

aTotal includes 65,087 trailers occupied at the time of the 1960 Census.

Data for 1960 and 1961 not shown because of lack of space.

Source: The inventory of housing units in 1960 is from the U. S. Census of Housing, 1960; the number of
units authorized from 1960 through 1968 is the number of housekeeping units for which building permits were
issued, by 300 permit-issuing offices,adjusted for nonreporting and undercoverage by the Bureau of Economic and
Business Research. Since an average lag of 3 months exists between the time a permit is issued and the unit is
ready for occupancy, the permit data give a rough estimate of the housekeeping units added from the time of
the latest Census up to April, 1969. An estimate made on this basis, however, does not take into account
demolitions, lapses of permits, conversions, or an extended lag period in the construction of a large apartment
house. Because of incomplete reporting in earlier years, data for District 1 and Volusia and Brevard Counties
may be understated.
