The nursery and greenhouse industries are two of the fastest growing segments of agriculture in North America. Baby plants, trees, fruits, grains, seedlings, nuts, vegetables, exotic plants, regulated plants, and other specialty crops are just a few commodities operators can angle a corner of the market. Completely indoor, temperature and environmentally controlled nurseries offer farmers 365-day growthy windows destined for success. Starter plants created from tissue cultures are used to produce millions of healthy, identical plants in the same space a single “mother plant” used in traditional methods would fill. Cross merchandising with other AHI members is another perk of being included in the smart community’s network. The nursery industry can also have a positive impact on rural development and job creation.
