Global Vertical Agriculture Market Research Report 2025(Status and Outlook)
Description
Report Overview
Vertical agriculture, also known as vertical farming, is a method of growing crops in vertically stacked layers or inclined surfaces, often integrated into urban environments using controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) technologies such as hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics. This approach maximizes space efficiency, reduces water usage, and minimizes the need for pesticides by optimizing light, temperature, and nutrient delivery. Vertical farming is particularly suited for high-value crops like leafy greens, herbs, and strawberries, addressing challenges such as land scarcity, climate change, and urban food demand. The market is driven by increasing urbanization, the need for sustainable food production, and advancements in LED lighting and automation. However, high initial capital costs, energy consumption, and technical expertise remain barriers to widespread adoption. Key players include AeroFarms, Plenty, and Bowery Farming, with growth fueled by investments in agtech and a shift toward local, resilient food systems. The industry is projected to expand significantly, supported by consumer demand for fresh, pesticide-free produce and government incentives for sustainable agriculture.
The global Vertical Agriculture market size was estimated at USD 4870.78 million in 2024, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.34% during the forecast period.
