Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, Hunting
Agriculture in South Florida is largely an industry unique to South
Dade. Miami-Dade County’s agriculture industry is one of most
diverse in the country employing over 10,000 in the 4th Quarter of 2021.
In Miami-Dade County, with 70,000 acres in production, the Florida
County Value of Agricultural Products sold in 2017 was $838 million,
the largest in the state behind only Palm Beach County with more than
410,000 acres. In 2017, 73% of the farms were under 10 acres in size.
The area has very high location quotients in floriculture production as
well as flower, nursery stock and florists’ supplies merchant
wholesalers- 6.21 and 5.94 respectively. These location quotients
support the findings of a recent impact and outlook report completed
by the Florida Nursery Growers and Landscape Association (FNGLA)
which named Miami-Dade as one of the top producers of indoor foliage
plants within Florida. The report also revealed that Florida is the
number one producer of indoor foliage plants in the U.S, producing
nearly 69% of total wholesale value for the United States. The location
quotients indicate that floriculture as well as flower, nursery stock and
florists’ supplies provide an opportunity for export. In a time of
growing global food insecurity and supply chain difficulties, local
agriculture is a critical mainstay of South Florida’s sustainability and
well-being.
