Vertical Farming Market Outlook and Analysis to 2026 – Leading Top Companies are Agrilution, AeroFarms, Freight Farms, Illumitex, Inc., and Green Sense Farms

The global vertical farming market was valued at USD 2,073 million in 2017 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 20.8% during the forecast period. Vertical farming is a method of food production on vertically inclined structures. This process uses vertically stacked layers integrated into skyscrapers or shipping containers to produce high quality crops. Vertical farming artificially controls factors such as light, temperature, and humidity to maximize crop production in a limited space, which enables year-round crop production under controlled indoor environments. It uses a combination of natural and artificial lights to maintain suitable growing conditions for crops. Hydroponic, aeroponic, or aquaponic are used as growing mediums to improve productivity, which enables crop production with 70-95 percent less water as compared to normal cultivation. The primary aim of vertical farming is to increase crop production per square footage of area.
