Growing Conservation Seedlings by the Square Foot: Making it Pay

In your nursery, do you really know which species and stock types are making or losing money? I have developed an exercise to help nursery managers check their species/stock types and determine if the resulting plants are yielding profit or loss. A computer spreadsheet can quickly provide information on how changes in cell density (changing container types) affect seedling price and nursery income, and rank the contribution each species or stock type makes toward financial objectives.
