It enables to produce a huge quantity of nutritious and fresh food without depending on favorable weather, skilled labor, high water usage, and high soil fertility. Furthermore, it makes sure a reliable yield and constancy in crop production throughout the year coupled with climate control, and also there are no effects of external environment factors like pests, diseases, or predator attacks.
Growing demand for fresh and organic vegetables, the rise of state-of-the-art agriculture techniques, and increasing urbanization are some of the critical factors that are responsible for the growth of the market. The global farmland area has reduced due to rapid urbanization all across the globe. The soil quality is getting degraded and it is another reason for the advent of alternative farming techniques, like hydroponics, aquaponics, and aeroponics. The increasing use of alternative cultivation techniques by the farmers is anticipated to drive the demand for fresh produce in the vertical farms over the foreseeable period.
The vegetables that are mostly grown through this technique include strawberries, leafy greens, lettuce, and tomatoes. Out of all these, lettuce shows a substantial growth owing to its limited need for care and adaptability to grow in small spaces. The segment is likely to show continuous growth in the coming years. Many aquatic species such as seaweeds can also be cultivated using this technique.
