Vertical Farming Market by Growth Mechanism (Hydroponics, Aeroponics, and Aquaponics), Structure (Building Based and Shipping Container), Offering (Hardware, Software, and Service), Crop Type, and Geography - Global Forecast to 2022
The vertical farming market size is projected to reach USD 5,799 million by 2022 from an estimation of USD 1,533 million in 2016, at a CAGR of 24.8%. Rising demand for high-quality food, without pesticides, independent farming technique with very less/no impact of climatic conditions and possible to grow vegetables and fruits in a limited space is expected to drive the vertical farming industry growth. Furthermore, underlying opportunities in this space include the production of biopharmaceutical productsand growing opportunities in APAC.
Based on mechanism, hydroponics to hold the largest market share of vertical farming market
Hydroponics is a technology of growing plants in a soilless medium or an aquatic-based environment, and is the most widely used growth mechanism in vertical farms. The plant roots are submerged in the nutrient solution, which is frequently monitored and circulated to ensure that the correct chemical composition is maintained. Hydroponically-grown plants generally have a much higher yield than similar plants grown in soil because of the higher control over nutrients.
In hydroponics system, mineral nutrients dissolved in water, are fed directly to a plant’s roots, from which the plants grow mostly upward, thereby promoting quicker growth, faster harvest, and higher yield. Hydroponics system is used both indoors and outdoors for growing herbs, foliages, and food items throughout the year, using an inert growth medium to anchor a plant’s roots. Hydroponics technology offers many benefits, including no use of soil and low cost of water, as the water stays in the system and can be reused.
Building based vertical farms expected to be the largest share holder of vertical farming structure in coming years
Building-based vertical farms are often housed in abandoned buildings in cities, such as “The Plant” vertical farm in Chicago. The Plant is a food production space designed in a net-zero energy building (NZEB), closed loop system in Chicago’s backyards. New building constructions are also used in vertical farms, such as the new multi-storey vertical farm being attached to an existing parking lot. Currently, shipping container vertical farms dominate the global vertical farming market. However, due to their wider acceptance and lesser costs, building-based vertical farms are expected to overtake the shipping container vertical farms, by 2022.
Vertical farming market for APAC to account largest market size during the forecast period
APAC is the largest vertical farming market, with numerous ongoing developments and a large number of small and large vertical farms already operating in the region. There are numerous farms in Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, and other such technologically-advanced countries. Japan holds the largest share of the global vertical farming market. Countries, such as China and India have ample opportunities in this untapped market. Moreover, the APAC vertical farming market is growing rapidly owing to the increasing awareness about alternative farming methods, growing population, and limited agricultural fertile land. The vertical farming market in APAC has been segmented into Japan, China, Taiwan, Singapore, and rest of APAC, by country.

The study involved 4 major activities in estimating the current size of the vertical farming market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer markets, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
Secondary sources referred to in this research study include corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements); trade, business, and professional associations; white papers, vertical farming-related journals, IEST publications; directories; and databases. The secondary data has been collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall market size estimations, which has been further validated by primary research.
Primary Research
In the primary research process, various primary sources from both supply and demand sides have been interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information relevant to this report. Extensive primary research has been conducted after understanding and analyzing the vertical farming market through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with key opinion leaders from both demand- and supply-side vendors across 4 regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), and Rest of the World (RoW). RoW comprises Middle East, South America and Africa. Approximately 25% of the primary interviews have been conducted with the demand side and 75% with the supply side. This primary data has been collected mainly through telephonic interviews, which accounted for 80% of the total primary interviews. Besides, questionnaires and emails were also used to collect the data.

Market Size Estimation
Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were implemented to estimate and validate the total size of the vertical farming market. These methods were also used extensively to estimate the size of the markets based on various subsegments. The research methodology used to estimate the market size includes the following steps:
- The key players in the industry and markets have been identified through extensive secondary research.
- The industry’s supply chain and market size, in terms of value, have been determined through primary and secondary research processes.
- All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns have been determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources.
Data Triangulation
