Each process requires various equipment, vegetables, fruits, herbs, and aquatic species. This vertical cultivation technique finds various types of applications in several indoor and outdoor environments.
Swiftly growing population across the globe and the increasing demand for higher agricultural yields from a limited arable land is one of the prime factors that have a positive impact on the vertical farming market in the foreseeable period of time. For example, according to Food & Agricultural Organization (FAO), the urban regions of the world are likely to have 70% of the global population by the year 2050, this will result in pressurizing the agricultural productivity to increase in the coming years. This technique has many benefits compared to conventional farming like, low utilization of water, less dependency on soil fertility, controlled weather conditions with the help of agrochemicals, which will change the entire agribusiness in the coming years. Furthermore, vertical farming has the ability to produce high-quality vegetables, fruits, and herbs all the way through the year is a factor that will augment product growth in the future.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has positively contributed to a surge in the demand for vertical farming. The global supply chains have been witnessed enormous disruptions since the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of which the crops that are grown through conventional farming in the fields are now turning into waste. In contrast to it, companies like AeroFarms and Bowery Farming, Inc. is ready to capitalize on the benefit of the crops that are grown in the heart of urban areas. Those crops that are grown in vertical farms require less human exposure so the safety, and freshness accompanying them have inspired consumers to go for vertically grown produce.
