Major Driver Impacting Market Growth
Increasing indoor and vertical farming adoption is expected to drive the microgreens market. Vertical farming indoors is the process of growing foods stacked one above the other in a controlled, enclosed environment. Compared to conventional farming techniques, vertically installed growing shelves considerably minimize the quantity of land needed to cultivate plants. Due to its capacity to flourish in constrained spaces, this cultivation style is frequently connected with cities and urban farming. The benefits of indoor vertical farming range from sustainable urban growth to crop production maximization, with lower labor expenses. Microgreens are widely grown using vertical farming indoors because they do not consume much space. For instance, in 2021, according to Bayer, a multinational company with primary expertise in the life science industries of agriculture and healthcare, globally, there are 204,387 sq m (or 2.2 million sq ft) indoor farms in operation in 2022. In the following five years, that figure is anticipated to be nearly tenfold to 2 million sq m (or 22 million sq feet). Therefore, the Increase in indoor and vertical farming adoption would propel the microgreens market’s growth.
