The horticulture sector continues to navigate a period of rapid change – from rising input costs and labour shortages to shifting consumer demand and sustainability pressures. At the same time, opportunities around innovation, automation, and diversification are reshaping how businesses operate across horticulture, landscape, machinery, retail, and sportsturf.
In this year’s Industry Sentiment Survey proudly sponsored by Klassman-Deilmann, we’re asking you to rank the issues, trends, and topics that matter most to your business, whether that’s energy costs, managing pest and disease, sustainability, raising input costs, skills and staffing to name a few.
Your input will help us track how those problems and trends are evolving, uncover new priorities, and provide a clearer picture of where the industry is heading next.
Last year’s results revealed that 36% of respondents rank labour shortages as their biggest challenge, while rising costs continue to weigh heavily on Ireland’s horticulture sector.
This is your industry and we need your input. By taking part, you’ll not only help shape the conversation, but also gain valuable insight into how your business compares with others across the sector.
As a thank you for your time, participants will have the chance to win a €50 One4all voucher.
Let your voice be heard and take part in the Growtrade.ie Industry Sentiment Survey here.
