This econometric study covers the latent demand outlook for commercial turf and grounds riding reel-type turf mowers and greens mowers across the prefectures and cities of Japan. Latent demand (in millions of U.S. dollars), or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) estimates are given across some 1,000 cities in Japan. For each city in question, the percent share the city is of it's prefecture and of Japan is reported. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a city vis-a-vis others. This statistical approach can prove very useful to distribution and/or sales force strategies. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each prefecture and city, latent demand estimates are created for commercial turf and grounds riding reel-type turf mowers and greens mowers. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.
This study does not report actual sales data (which are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in virtually all of the cities in Japan). This study gives, however, my estimates for the latent demand, or the P.I.E., for commercial turf and grounds riding reel-type turf mowers and greens mowers in Japan. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided and concentrated across the cities and regional markets of Japan. For each prefecture, I also show my estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time. In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on strategic planning at graduate schools of business.
A cynic could have walked down the aisles of the Green Industry and Equipment Expo (GIE+Expo) last week and scoffed at the rows and rows of beefy yard and farm gear, much of it for contractors, and most of it sporting gasoline-powered, internal combustion engines that hardly evoke the word “green.” But a closer look, especially at next year’s crop of walk-behind mowers and their engines, gave a different impression.
As of next year, walk-behind mowers must emit 34 percent less hydrocarbons than they did five years ago. (Lawn tractors and other riding mowers had to meet the latest requirements last January.) What this means, if you’ll be in the market for a walk-behind mower next spring, is a model that’s more likely than ever to sport a premium engine with an overhead-valve or overhead-cam design. Such engines start more easily, run more cleanly, and last longer. They’re also lighter, which means more maneuverability.
The downside? You’ll probably pay about $20 more for that walk-behind mower, which we saw coming three years ago when we blogged about the Environmental Protection Agency's incremental regulations . For tractors and zero-turn-radius mowers, there’s more of a premium—closer to $50—for... Source
Modern mulching lawn mowers, such as those from John Deere, a supporter of Project EverGreen, make “grasscycling” even easier. Homeowners can reduce their mowing time by 30 to 40 percent by not having to bag clippings. Green space can also improve
