OUT-OF-STATE SALES
OUT-OF-STATE SALES DOWN
The value of out-of-State sales of flowers and
nursery products (including wholesale and
retail sales) during 2010 is estimated at
$32.0 million, declining 10 percent from 2009.
Values in this table are not comparable to
values shown in the majority of other tables
throughout this release. The value of out-ofState sales represents the dollar received at
the point the commodity leaves the State.
Thus, the product contains retail and
wholesale sales and may include multiple
transactions by the time it leaves the State.
