The vertical farming market is estimated to be USD 5.1 billion in 2023, and it is expected to to reach USD 15.3 billion by 2028; growing at a CAGR of 24.7% from 2023 to 2028

The vertical farming market is set to experience remarkable growth in the coming years. One of the driving factors behind this growth is the escalating demand for fresh, locally produced food. As consumers become more conscious of the origin and quality of their food, the desire for farm-to-table options continues to surge.


New York, July 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Vertical Farming Market by Growth Mechanism, Structure, Crop Type, Offering & Region - Global Forecast to 2028" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p04655403/?utm_source=GNW
Vertical farming presents an innovative and sustainable solution to meet this demand.

Hardware segment to account largest market share between 2023 and 2028
Based on offering, hardware segment is likely to dominate vertical farming market throughout the forecast period.Hardware component such as LED lighting, sensors, and climate control offer notable advantages in vertical farming.

LED lighting surpasses traditional options in terms of energy efficiency, resulting in reduced operating costs and lower heat production, which is particularly beneficial in vertical farms.Sensors play a crucial role in monitoring various factors like temperature, humidity, light levels, and nutrient levels, enabling optimal growing conditions for plants.

This optimized environment can lead to higher crop yields and improved quality.Additionally, climate control systems ensure a consistent and tailored environment for plant growth, which is vital for their overall well-being.

Furthermore, these systems help in safeguarding vertical farms from pests and diseases, thereby ensuring a healthy and productive cultivation environment. The incorporation of LED lighting, sensors, and climate control hardware devices in vertical farming significantly enhances efficiency, productivity, and plant health.

Aquaponics growth mechanism Segment to offer lucrative growth during forecast period
The growth potential for aquaponics in vertical farming is substantial due to several factors.Aquaponics involves the symbiotic cultivation of plants and fish in a closed system, where fish waste provides nutrients for the plants, and the plants filter the water for the fish.

This technique offers significant advantages for the vertical farming industry.One key advantage is water conservation.

Aquaponics is highly efficient in its water usage, consuming up to 90% less water compared to traditional farming methods.The water is continuously recycled and reused within the system, minimizing waste and promoting sustainability.

Furthermore, aquaponics demonstrates high productivity, generating substantial yields of food in a compact area. The integrated system optimizes the use of resources such as water and nutrients, leading to efficient growth and harvest.

Lettuce is among most cultivated crops across different vertical farms
Lettuce holds a significant share in vertical farms for several reasons, making it one of the most cultivated crops in this farming method compared to others.Lettuce is a leafy green vegetable that has a relatively short growth cycle and doesn’t require excessive vertical space.

This makes it well-suited for vertical farming systems, where crops are grown in stacked layers or vertical towers.Lettuce’s compact size allows for efficient use of the available vertical space, maximizing the yield per square meter.

Further, lettuce has a high demand in the market, particularly in urban areas where vertical farms are commonly located.It is a staple ingredient in salads, sandwiches, and wraps, making it a popular choice for health-conscious consumers seeking fresh, locally-grown produce.

The proximity of vertical farms to urban centers allows for quicker delivery and access to consumers, ensuring the lettuce reaches its market in a fresher state compared to long-distance transportation from traditional farms.

North America likely to dominate vertical farming market during the forecast period
The vertical farming market in the North America is experiencing dominance due to several factors.Firstly, the region’s large and expanding population has created a high demand for fresh and locally sourced produce.

Vertical farming addresses this demand by enabling year-round cultivation, independent of weather conditions.Additionally, the Americas boast a robust economy and access to substantial venture capital, which fuels the growth of the vertical farming industry. This financial support provides resources for infrastructure development and technological advancements.Moreover, certain governments in the North America are actively supporting the vertical farming sector by offering financial incentives and regulatory assistance. This governmental backing creates a conducive environment for industry growth and innovation.
