Hello deeper-ga,
What a fun research project. It was easy to find 4-5 surveys. It was
impossible to stick to only 4-5 and I?ve included additional ones that
looked most interesting.
This is a large industry and there are many market research reports on
a variety of different products, services and market niches impacting
on every facet of the industry. Some of the reports are very expensive
but even the brief abstracts describing them (along with the available
table of contents) might give you some of the impressive statistics
you?re looking for. In addition to listing specific reports I?ve also
listed vendors of market reports and surveys. These will give you the
opportunity to continue your explorations.
I believe that the reports I?ve listed will meet your criteria. Please
don?t hesitate to ask for clarification if anything I?ve provided
needs amplification.
Best wishes for your projects.

The 2003-2008 World Outlook for Gardening Products

PAGE COUNT: 226

PRICE: $795
This study covers the world outlook for gardening products across more
than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for
the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the
country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share
the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative
benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-a-vis
others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic
dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand
estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific
players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details
at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term
cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore,
is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view,
irrespective of the players or products involved.
***** This is another comprehensive report that would be especially
useful for getting a perspective on the global gardening market.

Report: Lawn and Garden Consumables
Pub Time: 2002/09
Published by: The Freedonia Group
Distributed by: Global Information, Inc.
Price $3700
US demand for lawn and garden consumables, which include fertilizer,
pesticides, packaged growth media, seeds and mulch, is forecast to
reach $6.4 billion in 2006, accounting for nearly six percent of the
total market for lawn and garden products and services and nearly 20
percent of all product sales. Advances will be driven by strong growth
in recently introduced products, such as premium soils and colored
mulch, as well as heavy marketing expenditures by leading product
suppliers. In addition, the aging of the baby boom generation (older
consumers are more likely to participate in gardening activities),
increasing interest in landscaping, and the more widespread
availability of diverse lawn and garden products to the general public
will support healthy gains.

PUBLISHED BY: Mintel International Group Ltd.
DATE PUBLISHED: 11/1/2003
LENGTH: 103 Pages
Pub ID: GN942995
Price: $3000
Countries covered: United States
About this report:
Sales of power garden tools reached $8.6 billion in 2002, a 0.9%
increase from sales of $8.4 billion in 2001. From 1998 to 2000,
propelled primarily by a favorable economy and subsequent high
consumer spending on home improvement and gardening, over 8% growth
was experienced. In 2001, however, sales declined, although continued
high home sales and aggressive expansion by retailers have slowed the
decline in sales even in the still slow economic climate.
