Farm, Lawn & Garden Equipment Wholesaling in the US

Outlook not forlorn due to lawn

Growing household incomes and an aging of the population will promote sales of lawn and gardening equipment to households and professional landscape services. Many existing building and facilities, as well as new construction, will recognize the importance of 'curb appeal.' Growth in sales is expected for Farm Machinery and Equipment, but at a slower rate than for Lawn and Garden Machinery and Equipment. Farm commodity prices will be volatile but well supported. A new Bill passed in May 2008 is likely to aid the ability of farmers to purchase farm equipment.
