Greenhouse Market Size 2023 to 2032

Key Pointers

  • The plastic segment accounted for the largest revenue share of about 58.02% in 2022 and is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. One of the major benefits of the plastic greenhouse over glass greenhouse is the low installation cost.
  • The polycarbonate segment accounted for the largest market share in 2022. 
  • The glass greenhouse is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR of 10.33% during the forecast period.
  • The hardware segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of about 62.01% in 2022. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for hardware among farmers for maintaining a suitable environment in greenhouse farming. 
  • The software segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR of 12.07% during the forecast period. Greenhouse management software improves the planning and tracking of crops, operates the growing facility remotely, and minimizes manual intervention. The use of management software enables farmers to employ the most effective, environmentally friendly farming techniques. The software segment is further segmented into web-based and cloud-based. Among which web-based segment accounted for the largest revenue share.
  • The fruits, vegetables & herbs segment accounted for about 56.03% of the revenue share in 2022 and is expected to dominate the target market during the forecast period. The increasing cultivation of commonly grown fruits and vegetables in greenhouses is propelling the segment's growth.
  • The commercial growers segment dominated with a revenue share of about 37.02% in 2022. The growth of the segment is attributed to the increasing popularity of greenhouse farming due to its offered benefits coupled with rising its adoption among commercial growers. 
  • The research and educational institutes segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR of 10.74% over the forecast period.
  • Europe accounted for the major revenue share of about 32.06% in 2022 and is estimated to expand at a significant CAGR from 2023 to 2032. The growing population of Europe coupled with the decreasing land availability for farming is the major factor increasing the popularity of greenhouse farming in the region.
  • Asia Pacific is forecasted to register the highest CAGR of 11.34% from 2023 to 2032. The greenhouse market is expected to observe healthy growth due to the rising population, and the need to maintain food security through alternative high-yield farming techniques

The major factors attributed to the growth are rapid urbanization accelerating the adoption of modern farming techniques and the rising population leading to the increasing demand for food. In addition, the aspects such as the decline in arable land worldwide causing a shift towards indoor agricultural practices including greenhouses, and government interventions such as export subsidies, tariffs or import levies, and direct payments to growers, among others further bolstering the growth of the market.

Greenhouse farming offers protection to crops from severe weather conditions by using techniques such as controlled environment agriculture technology, where the facilities use climate control systems. It offers numerous benefits which include increased production with lesser risks, year-round growth of crops like tomato, lettuce, brassica family (broccoli, kale), allium family (green onions, leeks, chives), reduction in food wastage, disease & pest prevention, prevention of agricultural run-off, and adequate cultivation in limited space, among others.

The decline in arable land is probably due to the conversion of the land into new developments or constructions. To expand suburbs and meet the rising demand for homes, real-estate developers have been increasingly buying farmland which in turn is generating the need for modern agricultural growing techniques like hydroponics & aquaponics. These growing mechanisms do not need arable land and can be done in controlled environments further contributing to the growth of the target market.

For instance, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in 2021 the U.S. lost 1.3 million acres of farmland. Further, in the U.S., the total farmland in 2020 was 896,600,000 acres which decreased to 895,300,000 acres in 2021. Thus, greenhouse farming is a viable option for crop production in a limited space. Moreover, according to the United States Department of Agriculture in 2020, the average production of tomatoes cultivated hydroponically in greenhouses was 10.59 pounds per square foot, compared to 1.85 pounds per square foot for tomatoes grown conventionally. Therefore, greenhouse farming can increase overall crop production.

However, the high initial investment is the major factor restraining the industry's growth. Additionally, the high cost of installing LEDs, active heat systems, creating a controlled environment, and high maintenance cost restrains the market growth. Greenhouse design and structure are comparatively expensive, which can be challenging for many low-income farmers. Greenhouse-based farming is suited for profitable and medicinal crops which include saffron, medicinal marijuana, herbs, bamboo plants, and others that are easy to commercialize to maximize the chances of getting a return on investment (ROI) back quickly.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought widespread disruption to the global supply chain, resulting in food shortages and inflation. Due to the supply-chain disruption, many greenhouse producers had problems transporting their inventory out. Thus, necessary measures are required to strengthen the food supply chain in a preparation for any future crisis. The epidemic has also highlighted the need of being able to conduct agricultural chores remotely. Further, the market expansion is anticipated to be driven due to amalgamation of traditional farming methods with advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data, and intelligent controls.
