Insights on the Indoor Farming Global Market to 2030 - Rising Demand for Fresh Foods With High Nutritive Value is Driving Growth - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Global Indoor Farming Market, by Growing Systems, Crop Type, by Technology, Estimation & Forecast, 2017-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global indoor farming market held a market value of USD 26.5 Billion in 2021 and is estimated to reach USD 62 Billion by the year 2030. The market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 10.1% during the forecast period.

Indoor farming is one of the ideal alternatives for conventional agriculture. The increasing research and awareness in the fields of hydroponics, aquaponics, and hybrid growing systems is fueling the growth rate of the market to a double digit over the forecast period. The increasing support by companies also contributes heavily. For instance, in April 2019, Signify Holdings acquired WiZ Connected (China), the manufacturers of the WiZ Wi-Fi-based connected lighting ecosystem. Thus, such measures aid the market growth.

Government, as well as non-government agencies, manufacturers are pointing at growing awareness by providing policies, subsidies, and other strategies as well as perks that drive the growth of the indoor farming market across the world.

On the other hand, the high cost and high initial investment cost is a hampering factor for indoor farming market. Moreover, the different limitations on different types of crops to be grown also hinders the growth of the market.

Growth Influencers:

Lesser impact of external weather conditions

The ever-changing climatic conditions underwrite the existing increasing environmental issues, including soil degradation, groundwater depletion, and many others. A lot of research experts have proved that indoor farming through its different growing systems, has less impact of the external weather conditions, in comparison to the traditionally grown plants. In light of this, the demand for indoor farming has tremendously increased, and is propelling the growth rate of the market to a huge extent.

Rising demand for fresh foods with high nutritive value

The surging demand for fresh foods by health-conscious consumers, as well as producers utilizing top-notch technologies is fuelling the market growth. Moreover, the usage of these new technologies, such as aeroponics, hydroponics, offer high yield value, contributing to high demand of the end product. For instance, USDA data 2016 stated that the average yield of tomatoes grown in greenhouse hydroponics was 10.59 pounds per square foot, and that of traditionally grown tomatoes was 1.85 pounds per square foot. Thus, such measures drive the market growth.
