Floriculture in Canada - Biblioteka.sk

In 2001, the Canadian floriculture industry was valued at $904 million CAD.^[1] To give a more recent figure, Canadian floricultural farm cash receipts in 2013 totalled $1.09 billion CAD.^[2] In 2011, there were 2,278 floricultural farms in Canada.^[3]

Of the provinces, Ontario has the greatest share in this industry—nearly 45% in 2004.^[4] Correspondingly Ontario dominates in exports to the U.S.^[5] 9,500 people of mainly Dutch and Danish background were employed by Ontario's floriculture industry in 2004.^[4] Southern Ontario's strategic location within 12 hours by road of half of the U.S. urban population is cited as one of the major sources of its success in floriculture.^[4]
