Benchmarking the rapid strategy shifts of the Top 100 companies in the Hydroponics Market
Request For Special Pricing[170 Pages Report] The overall hydroponics system market is projected to grow from USD 8.1 billion in 2019 to USD 16.0 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 12.1%. Hydroponic systems provide higher yield compared to traditional agricultural techniques, owing to the increase in harvest cycles. Furthermore, hydroponic systems eliminate the use of artificial ripening agents and pesticides, which helps in creating nutritionally superior vegetable products. The market for hydroponics is fragmented at the global level, with multiple innovative start-ups and emerging companies entering the hydroponics market. Major companies have been trying to enter this space, either by developing hydroponic components or by investing in the technology for crop cultivation.
Market Dynamics
Higher yield as compared to conventional agriculture practices
According to the FAO, due to the increasing population, food production is expected to rise by 70% before 2050. On the other hand, natural prerequisites of agriculture, viz., arable land and water have been depleting, with rapid urbanization across the globe. To feed the increasing population, the productivity of food crops needs to be increased in the existing arable land, and also alternative farming techniques such as urban farming need to be encouraged.
Hydroponic systems or soil-less agriculture reduce the farmers consumption of resources, thereby enabling this farming technique to be adopted by a large number of stakeholders, ranging from home gardeners to professional growers, and supermarkets to restaurants. According to the UN reports on global population, plants grown in hydroponic systems have achieved 20%25% higher yield than the traditional agriculture system, with its productivity being 25 times higher. Also, owing to controlled environmental conditions, the effect of climatic changes can be balanced with the help of these systems, thereby not affecting the annual crop production. CEH techniques directly affect the crop harvest cycle; hence, for hydroponic systems, crop harvest cycles are shorter in comparison to traditional farming techniques, thereby increasing the annual yield. Also, since climatic changes show a minimal effect on such systems, crops can be produced all year round, thereby again increasing the produce.
Lack of government policy and tax breaks in developing countries
Hydroponic farming is seen as a key factor in improving food security in developing regions; however, while government support through tax cuts is present in developed countries, the same cannot be said for developing countries. The availability of the best equipment is fairly limited and often needs to be imported, which attracts taxes adding to the costs for hydroponic growers. The lack of tax cuts and incentives is also a key factor that hinders the growth of hydroponics in developing regions as the high set-up costs and running costs can often render operations unfeasible. The need for basic training and technical knowledge is necessary for operating hydroponic farms, which although is present in developing countries, does not add significantly to the value of hydroponic farms. The high costs of production often result in high costs of the final product, which in itself can draw consumers away in price-sensitive markets.
Entrance of new players in the market
Due to increased popularity and adoption of hydroponics, many new players are entering the market. For instance, Larry Ellison, founder, chairman, and CTO of Oracle, launched a hydroponic farming start-up, named Sensei in Los Angeles. The company plans to build 10 greenhouses covering 200,000 square feet on the Hawaiian island of Lanai and instead of measuring output by volume, Sensei will measure nutrition per acre.
Various investors are also supporting hydroponics start-ups globally. For instance, in June 2017 a high-tech indoor, vertical farming start-up, Bowery Farming, announced it had raised USD 20 million in a Series A1 co-led by General Catalyst and GGV Capital, and including GV, First Round Capital, and other seed round investors. In July 2017, a San Francisco-based indoor vertical farming start-up, Plenty, raised the largest agtech funding round in history a USD 200 million Series B led by SoftBank Vision Fund the USD 93 billion all-stage tech fund headed by a Japanese investor, Masayoshi Son. Other participants in the round include affiliates of Louis M. Bacon, the founder of Moore Capital Management, and existing investors Eric Schmidts Innovation Endeavors, Finistere, DCM, Data Collective, and Bezos Expeditions. Plenty has plans to open 500 hydroponics farms in all the major cities of more than 1 million inhabitants, globally.
Many start-ups have also emerged in the Asia Pacific region, the fastest-growing region for the hydroponics market. For instance, Future Farms based in Chennai, India has developed effective and accessible farming kits to facilitate hydroponics. The company develops indigenous systems and solutions, made from premium, food-grade materials that are efficient and affordable for Indian growers. Junga FreshnGreen, an agri-tech start-up, is a joint venture with a leading Netherlands-based Agricultural technology company Westlandse Project Combinatie BV (WPC). It is setting up high-technology farms in India. The company will create a hydroponics model that can cultivate farm fresh vegetables that have a predictable quality, having little or no pesticides, and unaffected by weather or soil conditions.
Spread of waterborne diseases and algae in closed systems
One of the key advantages of growing plants hydroponically is the lack of soil-borne diseases and pests; however, in a closed hydroponic system, the threat of waterborne diseases poses a major problem to growers. Considering that the nutrient-enriched water is recirculated throughout the system, any kind of waterborne disease that enters the nutrient reservoir often affects the whole crop as it has the capability to spread throughout. Growers often keep their plants spaced out to prevent crowding, which is often how pathogens enter the system.
The modulation of internal temperatures is also a crucial step as heat and moisture in an irrigation system if left untreated can result in the formation of molds and algae, which can draw nutrients from the water, thereby leaving little for plants, thereby affecting the crops in the process. To combat the instances of waterborne diseases, growers are resorting to using screen or paper filters and additional filtration systems to curb the spread of waterborne diseases in the system. Other safety measures included in systems include a rapid flush system to drain the water from the crops and prevent the spread of any pathogens.
On the basis of system type, the liquid systems segment is projected to be the largest contributor to the hydroponic systems market during the forecast period
The hydroponic systems market has been segmented, on the basis of system type, into aggregate and liquid systems. The hydroponics market for liquid systems is projected to record the highest growth between 2019 and 2025. Liquid systems have been proved to be efficient and also cost-effective in comparison to basic models. In comparison with the closed model of aggregate systems, liquid systems show higher productivity, and hence, the majority of the growers have been installing liquid systems for their crop production. Moreover, liquid systems are used extensively for lettuce production and also support tomatoes in multiple regions.
Hydroponic farming has been majorly adopted for vegetable production
The major factor for higher adoption of hydroponic farming in vegetable production is the yield obtained, which can be up to 10 times higher than traditional farming techniques. Since the capital cost involved in hydroponic setup is high, the crops produced are sold at premium rates, and according to industry experts, the price of the produce ranges at par with the organic produce prices. Vegetables that are grown using hydroponics are known to grow faster and stronger compared to traditional farming, as the right nutrients are delivered directly to the plants roots.
LED lights have proven to be effective in stimulating plant growth
The hydroponics market is segmented, on the basis of equipment, into HVAC, LED grow light, irrigation systems, material handling, control systems, and others. The light spectrum emitted by LED lights has proven to be effective in stimulating plant growth and is witnessing increased demand from hydroponic growers. Plants such as tomatoes, lettuce, spinach, kale, strawberries, peppers, beets, and other vegetables can be grown with LED grow lights. The increasing adoption and demand for LED grow lights have resulted in the ban of older and inefficient halogen units in the European Union from September 2018. These factors are further projected to drive the demand for LED grow lights.
Europe is projected to account for the largest market size during the forecast period
The European hydroponics market is projected to be the largest between 2019 and 2025, while the Asia Pacific market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR. Europe was the largest producer of hydroponic crops in 2018. It is still the largest market for hydroponically produced crops. Europe has traditionally been at the forefront of implementing advanced techniques in hydroponic smart greenhouse horticulture. Countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, and France have large areas under greenhouse cultivation. However, in the Netherlands, growers mostly cultivate their plants in simple tunnel-like greenhouses without the use of climate control technologies. The advancement in greenhouse farming has supported the growth of hydroponics in Europe.
