About botanical and zoological garden activities

NACE code 91.41 covers the activities of botanical and zoological gardens, which play a vital role in the preservation and study of plant and animal species. These facilities not only serve as important tourist attractions but also contribute to scientific research, conservation efforts, and public education about the natural world. As part of the broader 'Libraries, archives, museums and other cultural activities' industry, botanical and zoological gardens are a crucial component of the cultural and recreational infrastructure within many communities.

Production process

Botanical and zoological gardens utilize a range of techniques to maintain their collections and provide an engaging experience for visitors. This includes the cultivation and care of diverse plant species, the housing and management of animal populations, the development of educational exhibits and displays, and the curation of collections that showcase the natural world. Gardens often employ horticulturists, zoologists, and other specialized staff to ensure the proper care and management of their facilities.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for botanical and zoological garden activities include land, greenhouses or enclosures for housing plants and animals, water and irrigation systems, specialized equipment for plant and animal care, and a skilled workforce of gardeners, zookeepers, and other professionals. Botanical gardens may also require a variety of seeds, soil, and other horticultural supplies, while zoological gardens need to source appropriate food, veterinary services, and other resources to support their animal populations.

Production outputs

The main outputs of botanical and zoological garden activities are the educational and recreational experiences provided to visitors, as well as the preservation and study of plant and animal species. These gardens may also contribute to 72.11 Biotechnology research and development through their research and conservation efforts. Additionally, botanical gardens may produce and sell plants, seeds, or other horticultural products, while zoological gardens may generate revenue through ticket sales, merchandise, and other visitor-related activities.
