Which Region Dominates the Grass & Lawn Seed Market in 2024?

According to Cognitive Market Research, North America currently dominates the Grass & Lawn Seed market, and the region is expected to have significant growth during the projected period. North America hosts a wide array of sports facilities, such as golf courses, baseball fields, and soccer stadiums. According to new U.S. data, the outdoor recreation economy contributed 2.2% ($563.7 billion) to the nation's current-dollar gross domestic product (GDP) in 2022. That year, real gross output for the outdoor recreation economy grew by 7.5%, while outdoor recreation compensation rose by 9.1%. Conventional outdoor recreation activities represented 34.2% of the total value added in 2022, slightly down from 37.4% in 2021. Meanwhile, activities categorized as "other outdoor recreation," including gardening and outdoor concerts, increased their share to 19.8% in 2022, up from 19.0% the previous year. The demand for advanced grass seed varieties is driven by the need to maintain durable and high-performance turf. Additionally, urban planners prioritize parks, public gardens, and recreational spaces, resulting in greater usage of grass seeds in urban and suburban developments.
