I don’t think the profit margin is nearly what Darryl supposes. Evergreens do not grow fast and it takes approx. 8-10 years of watering and other care for them to reach a decent 6-foot Christmas tree size.
In the early years of my marriage we would visit a particular tree farm because they had white pines. After a few years, however, they shut down because they sold so many trees of all varieties and the slow growth affected their available crop.
