Software may identify growers, crop batch, land or field, and supplier information for fruits and vegetables. Since cloud-based software gathers millions of data points in real-time that can be analyzed with machine learning techniques to ascertain how changes in specific environmental parameters affect the yield and flavor of finished products, it is anticipated that the market will grow significantly in years to come.
The Hydroponics segment registered the largest market share in 2022 and is expected to remain dominant between 2023 and 2030. Hydroponics is a popular growth mechanism due to low installation costs and ease of operations. It is a method of growing plants without soil, where soil is replaced by mineral solution inserted around plant roots. Additionally, the hydroponics method removes the risk of soil organisms causing diseases.
Growing awareness among consumers regarding the effects of pesticides is expected to boost demand for hydroponics. Hydroponically grown plants produce greater yields than similar plants grown in soil because of proper control over nutrients. In addition, plant roots are submerged under a chemical solution and checked periodically to ensure appropriate chemical composition is maintained for growth.
The Aquaponics segment is anticipated to gain significant market share over the forecast period. Aquaponics is an integration of hydroponics and aquaculture, which eliminates the need for harmful chemicals for cultivation. Plants such as lettuce, chives, peppers, kale, mint, cucumbers, and peas are grown through aquaponics. Water used in aquaponics systems contains fish waste that becomes nutrient-rich and increases crop production time. This creates a sustainable natural system, which eliminates the need for chemicals to produce food.
The Aeroponics segment is anticipated to witness considerable growth over the forecast period. This system is similar to hydroponics as neither method uses soil to grow plants. However, in aeroponics, there is no need for a growing medium as the roots of plants are hung in a dark chamber and sprayed with nutrient-rich solution periodically.
The fruits, vegetables, & herbs segment registered the largest market share in 2022 and is expected to remain dominant between 2023 and 2030. Increasing cultivation of commonly grown fruits and vegetables in vertical farming is driving segment growth. Crops grown in vertical farming provide maximum profit to companies involved in their cultivation. At the same time, vertical farming improves biodiversity as it does not cause land disturbances. As such, vertical farming is in high demand for growing different types of crops. Further, fruits, vegetables, & herbs are segmented into tomato, lettuce, bell, chili peppers, strawberry, cucumber, leafy greens (excluding lettuce), herbs, and others. Among which tomatoes segment led the market and accounted for more than 24.23% of global fruits, vegetables, & herbs revenue in 2022. This large share is attributed to the high average demand for tomatoes in all regions compared to other crops such as lettuce, leafy greens, peppers, cucumbers, herbs, and so on. Some of the most commonly grown vegetables, herbs, and fruits across different regions include strawberries, lettuce, bell, chili peppers, tomato, cucumber, and leafy greens, among others. One of the important factors behind growing any crop in vertical farming is to validate the economic viability of that crop, which ensures that the company is making a large amount of money from its cultivation.
Similarly, the time taken for crops to grow fully is one of the criteria because some vegetables like lettuce and mint grow fast, whereas herbs and some fruiting crops take more time to grow but can have higher margins than many other plants. As a farmer, it is imperative to make sure that we can sell what we grow, and production costs should not be too high. In order to make this decision, the kind of crops also plays a very vital role in the feasibility study of vertical farming. Lettuces have shown consistent demand globally that has enhanced its cultivation.
The flowers and ornamentals segment is anticipated to grow with a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing usage of flowers and ornamentals for decorative and aesthetic purposes is anticipated to boost market growth. Also, vertical farming has gained popularity in growing edible flowers, which include marigolds, matthiol, cloves, and snapdragons. The segment has been further segregated into perennials, annuals, and ornamentals. Ornamentals flowers held the largest market share in 2022, owing to increasing sales.
The shipping container segment dominated the market with a share of about 53.32% in 2022 and is expected to remain dominant between 2023 and 2030. This growth is attributed to the ability of structure to help grow crops irrespective of geographic location. One of the primary benefits of container-based farming is that container farms are easy to transport, and one doesn't require a large piece of land or dedicated building to start cultivating.
Moreover, the price of shipping containers decreases with increased competition because the cost of acquiring used containers is relatively less, which gives other companies an opportunity to enter the market space. However, low comparative output and antagonism between light, heat, and layout are some of the drawbacks of such kind of agriculture.
Factors such as growing technological advancements and increasing penetration of precision farming are anticipated to drive shipping container segment over the forecast period. A building-based segment is widely accepted in Japan, China, and other Asian countries, and it is the fastest-growing segment in terms of revenue owing to its growing acceptance in the region. Building-based farming helps minimize cultivation costs and requires larger farming areas than single farming land, hence ensuring food security.
Shipping container-based farming uses 95% less water than traditional cultivation with drip irrigation. Shipping containers are easy to modify, stackable, durable, and can be recycled and refurbished at lower cost. Additionally, the surplus availability of unused shipping containers across the globe is likely to influence segment growth over the forecast period.
In terms of revenue, Europe dominated the vertical farming market in 2022 with a share of approximately 31.7% and is expected to remain dominant between 2023 and 2030. Growing awareness regarding the importance of alternative farming owing to less availability of fertile agricultural land and increasing population in the region is the key factor anticipated to spur the demand.
Europe is anticipated to witness significant growth over a projected period owing to the growing expansion of genetically modified crop technology. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of nanotechnology and robotics for farming enhances regional market demand. The use of nanotechnology helps in improving food packaging and enhancing disease and pest control.
The European Environment Agency has carried out several initiatives to build vertical farms for the purpose of overcoming challenges of continuous population growth and climate change as well as producing food in an environment-unfriendly way.

Market segmentation
The progress of the vertical farming market is accounted to reasons such as steady population growth, government incentives, restricted accessibility of cultivable land, and the surging demand for good-quality and fresh food. World Health Organization (WHO) and the Population Council report that approximately 55% of the global population resides in urban cities. However, the scarcity of land in urban areas has created a need for alternative solutions to produce fresh and nutritious crops. In response to this challenge, food producers are adopting vertical farming techniques, which enable cultivating crops indoors in multiple layers, within multi-story buildings, on stacked racks, or in warehouse-like structures. This approach utilizes vertical space efficiently and enables higher crop yields in a smaller footprint than traditional farming methods. By utilizing controlled environments and advanced technologies, vertical farming offers the potential to grow a wide range of crops throughout the year, regardless of external climate conditions.
Vertical farming can be used in the huge-scale production of organic crops. Regulated developing technologies such as hydroponics and aeroponics eliminate the use of chemical pesticides. The increasing adoption of controlled growing environments, including vertical farming, is driven by factors such as urbanization, resource efficiency, consumer demand for sustainable food, technological advancements, and supportive government policies. These growing environments offer the potential to produce food in urban areas, optimize resource usage, provide local and sustainable food options, leverage technology for efficiency, and contribute to food security. As the demand for food continues to rise, the adoption of controlled growing environments is expected to further increase and play a vital role in meeting the challenges of feeding a growing global population. In vertical farming, corps are grown under selected and well-regulated conditions that ensure optimal growth throughout the year. Compared to open-field agriculture, other farming practices such as vertical farm systems offer more crop rotation.
The high initial investment is the key factor restraining the growth of the market. Vertical farming requires warehouses for cultivation, and the high price of warehouses in an urban area compared to farmland further limits the adoption of vertical farming. In addition, the high cost of active heat systems, installing LEDs, creating a controlled environment, and high maintenance costs further restrain the market growth. The lack of funds for agriculture-related development hinders the growth of the market. Limited funding slows down the pace of research at universities and public institutions. Organizations such as AeroFarms (U.S.), Sundrop Farms (UK), and Gotham Greens (U.S.) are funding vertical farming techniques across Australia, U.S., and UK. The contribution of vertical farms to the global food system is minimal compared to conventional growing methods owing to their high production costs. However, growing technological advancements in lighting systems can minimize production costs in the coming years.
This section will provide insights into the contents included in this vertical farming market report and help gain clarity on the structure of the report to assist readers in navigating smoothly.
