What Drivers Are Propelling the Growth of Microgreens Market Forward?
The microgreens market is predicted to thrive with the rising acceptance of indoor and vertical farming practices. Indoor vertical farming is elucidated as the method of cultivating food items in a confined, controlled setting, using vertically arranged shelves for growth. This technique remarkably diminishes the amount of land required for plant cultivation compared to conventional farming methods. Its aptitude to prosper in limited spaces associates this method of cultivation commonly with city-based and urban farming. The perks of indoor vertical farming oscillate from promoting sustainable urban development to maximizing crop yield, coupled with reduced labor costs. Given their minimal space requirements, microgreens are extensively produced through indoor vertical farming. For instance, in April 2024, the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs, a UK government department, stated that the total income from farming (TIFF) in England peaked to $7.46 billion (£5.7 billion), marking a rise across all eight regions, averaging a 15% surge from 2021 to 2022. The East of England led the contributions to TIFF with 19%, while the North East contributed minimally at 4.5%. Hence, the acceleration of indoor and vertical farming adoption is likely to stimulate the expansion of the microgreens market.

Which Emerging Trends Are Transforming the Microgreens Market in 2025?
The progression of technology is a significant trend in the microgreens industry. Microgreens housed in capsules are now being effectively monitored and grown under systems powered by artificial intelligence. The growth process is seamlessly tracked through a chip embedded within the cultivation cabinet, which sends notifications about any issues and provides advice on the optimal time to harvest. For instance, Ro-Gro, an established vertical farm in the UK, launched Biofortified Microgreens in March 2024. This project is a collaborative effort between Ro-Gro, the John Innes Centre, a renowned plant and microbiological research institute, the Quadram Institute, a recognized food and health bioscience facility, and LettUs Grow, a company dedicated to indoor farming technology. The initiative led to the creation of the first-ever pea shoots enhanced with vitamin B12, grown in Ro-Gro's vertical farm in Kent using ultrasonic aeroponic technology developed by LettUs Grow. This groundbreaking combination of agricultural and nutritional science represents a major leap in the production of fortified foods and illustrates the successful pairing of technology and farming to establish a sustainable food system in the UK.
