There are many Agricultural crops that get shut down for a year or so due to a surplus of crops.

The best example of this, would be that "niche" cottage industry,known as the Christmas tree industry.

“There are patterns of fluctuation just like any crop, but unlike cabbage or cattle, Christmas trees have an eight-year growing cycle so it takes a while to see the patterns in the industry,” Greene said.

Brian Boyd, owner of WNC Christmas Tree Farm in Waynesville, said finding enough seedlings for planting each year is becoming more difficult because of the big surplus growers experienced probably about eight years ago.

“Seedlings are hard to come by. A lot of growers have to place their order a couple of years ahead,” Boyd said. “The overabundance pushed out a lot of the guys who were growing seedlings so now it’s created a shortage.”
