Floriculture Crop Value Decreases

The 2006 domestic wholesale value of floriculture crops fell 4 percent to $4 billion from the revised 2005 valuation, according to the USDA 2007 Floriculture Crops Survey. The survey includes growers with sales of $10,000 or more and in 2006 covered 15 states rather than the usual 36 states.
