Demand for Locally Grown Vegetables Bolsters Growth

The growing demand for locally grown vegetables has been instrumental to the flourishing hydroponics vegetables market across the globe. Owing to this reason, several farmers are catering to the burgeoning need for local vegetables, which is a far more profitable business. The freshness of hydroponically grown vegetables and the demand for organically and naturally grown food items are expected to propel the global market. The emerging trend of farmer’s markets, increasing number of community-sponsored agriculture initiatives, and growing adoption of direct-to-consumer distribution are expected to work in the favor of the global hydroponic vegetables market. The increasing inclination of retailers to source vegetables that are locally-grown as they are better in taste, do not need additional transportation costs, and longer shelf life is expected to favor market growth.

The growing concerns about food security due to increasing population and rapid urbanization have also become important in propelling the rise of the global hydroponic vegetables market. The growing challenges pertaining to cultivation of grains and vegetables in conventional ways has made farmers take a serious interest in hydroponics. Thus, several countries are investing in developing vertical hydroponic farms that are likely to be cost effective in the coming years. The promise of food safety and reduced exposure to pathogens has also titled attention toward hydroponics.

High Capital Investment to Dissuade Market Growth Over Forecast Period

On the flip side, the global hydroponic vegetables market is being hampered by the high capital investments required for developing these modern farms. This impact is especially severe in developing countries of the world. The exorbitant cost technology, consultations, and maintaining greenhouses is likely to discourage market growth. Additionally, the high energy requirement as compared to traditional farming is likely to restrain the market from achieving its full potential.
