Key Drivers

The major factors propelling the growth of the global hydroponics market are the increasing acceptance of controlled environment agriculture and growing technological enhancements in hydroponics systems. Hydroponic farming provides a higher yield as compared to traditional agricultural practices. It is promoted by governments and non-governmental organizations across the countries owing to the benefits of hydroponic farming in terms of food security. With the increasing population, the demand for food is increasing. As per the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN), the population across the world is projected to touch up to 9.1 billion by 2050, thus, increasing the food production by 25% to 70%. This is predicted to drive the need for alternative farming technologies that will offer better yields in less time. Moreover, there has been an increase in public and private funding to bring technological advancement and development in hydroponic systems. All these factors play a significant role in driving the growth of the global hydroponics market.

The rising difficulty in growing crops on soil has increased the demand for hydroponic farming systems. This is also attributed to the growing success rates of the commercial hydroponics industry over the past few years. Companies across the globe are carrying out research & development activities to reduce the cost involved in this technology. The increasing consumption of exotic vegetables and salad is significantly bolstering the growth of the global hydroponics market.
However, setting up hydroponic farm needs high investment, which is forecast to restrain the market growth over the upcoming years. In addition, insufficient awareness about the farming practices and advanced technologies like artificial intelligence needed to predict the outbreak of some diseases to make sure the proper functioning of hydroponics greenhouses will restrain the market size.

Type Segment Analysis

Liquid hydroponic systems segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR over the forecast period. Liquid hydroponic systems are cost-effective and efficient as compared to the conventional models. These systems are highly economical as all liquid hydroponic systems operate in a closed mode and reduce the cost of nutrient solution. Liquid hydroponic systems have higher productivity in comparison to aggregate systems. These factors are responsible for the growth of the liquid hydroponic segment in the global hydroponics market. Moreover, with the help of liquid systems, the use of a solid medium is eliminated, making the cultivation process easier. Thus, the process directly supply nutrients to the roots of a plant, expediting the plant growth and maximizing yields, which is estimated to expand the segment’s growth.

Equipment Segment Analysis

Based on the equipment, the market is segmented into HVAC, LED grow light, control systems, irrigation systems, material handling, and others. The HVAC segment is anticipated to grow at a faster CAGR over the forecast period. The HVAC system is responsible for maintaining the ideal temperature inside the facility, dehumidification, and cooling. These systems are prominent for the operation of aeroponic and hydroponic farms as they are well-controlled and highly reliable. It is also cost-effective comparatively to other equipment and utilities. These features are likely to boost the growth of the HVAC segment in the global hydroponics market.
Based on the input type, the market is segmented into nutrients and grow media. The nutrients segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The necessity for external nutrients becomes very high for hydroponic-based crops as they grow crops without the involvement of soil. With the increase in the adoption of soilless growing techniques, most crops are directly grown with the roots in the nutrient medium. These factors are significantly contributing to the growth of the nutrients segment in the global hydroponics market.

Crop Segment Analysis

Based on the crop type, the market is segmented into vegetables, fruits, flowers, and others. The fruits segment is anticipated to grow at a faster CAGR over the forecast period. Fruits can be grown and harvested by hydroponics throughout the year owing to the interior conditions of the indoor and greenhouse farming unit. It is easier for farmers to grow water adaptable fruits such as cantaloupe and watermelon, by using hydroponic methods. These factors play a crucial role in surging the growth of the fruits segment in the global hydroponics market.
