According to a recent report by Future Market Insights (FMI), sales in the global the indoor farming market are expected to increase at a 9.6% CAGR, reaching US$ 96,675 Mn in 2032.

The agriculture industry is adopting new methods to meet the growing demand for organic food. Vertical farming is gaining traction and will emerge as one of the key farming methods in the forthcoming years.

With the development of new technologies, vertical farms are using artificial light control, humidity control, and gas control within the facility. Vertical farming improves automation, lowers emissions, and lowers costs.

High yield associated with vertical farming over conventional farming, year-round crop production regardless of weather conditions, advancements in light-emitting diode (LED) technology, and the requirement of minimal resources are some of the major factors driving the adoption of vertical farming.

Furthermore, growing adoption of indoor farming with activities such as revamping derailed vacant warehouses, derelict buildings, and high rises, which increases the production of fresh grown foods is further expected to fuel the growth in the market.

“Growing urbanization, increasing demand for high quality food, and independent agricultural techniques are responsible for the expansion of indoor farming. Besides this, the depletion of groundwater and changing climatic conditions are encouraging traditional growers to adopt alternative farming methods,” says a lead analyst at FMI.
