As the name suggests, vertical farming crops are crops grown using vertical farming techniques such as hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics. In this type of farming, crops are grown in vertically stacked trays or layers and use 90% less water than traditional agriculture practices. Moreover, plants grown in vertical farms are free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs). These plants are cultivated in nutrient media in a controlled environment, which helps optimize plant growth and provide better yield.

The rising demand for organic food is expected to drive the market's growth during the forecast period. High usage of synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides in food products often leads to several health issues, including cancer, obesity, and other congenital disabilities. These factors are driving the consumers' inclination toward locally grown organic produce.

Furthermore, due to the increasing focus on health and nutrition, consumers' demand for pesticide-free food products has grown exponentially. This, in turn, is fuelling the demand for vertically farmed crops since they are cultivated with extreme hygiene, free of pesticides, and delivered to the retail stores within hours of harvest.

Some of the key players operating in the market are AeroFarms; Agricool; Bowery Farming Inc.; CropOne; Infarm; Plantlab; Plenty Unlimited Inc.; Gotham Greens; MIRAI Co., Ltd.; and BrightFarms.
