The global controlled environment agriculture market was valued at USD 85.26 billion in 2022 and growing at a CAGR of 17.65% from 2023 to 2032. The market is expected to reach USD 433.19 billion by 2032. Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) consists of high tunnels, greenhouses, vertical farms and plant factories. It is considered a crucial strategy for addressing global food challenges. Controlled environment agriculture can be further classified based on production technology such as aquaponics, hydroponics, aeroponics and soil-based. This type of agriculture takes knowledge from various disciplines to optimise crop quality and production efficiency in not-so-sufficient arable land. Based on many sources, CEA is more than 90% efficient in water use and produces around 10 to 250 times higher yield per unit area. It generates around 80% less wastage in comparison to traditional filed production. Moreover, it decreases the food transportation miles in urban areas.

Market Introduction:

Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) is the growth of crops by controlling some of the aspects of the environment to decrease the pest or diseases, surging efficiencies, making more sustainable and increasing the yield or saving cost. Many organisations involved in this focus on variables that can be controlled using automation, like humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide, light, nutrients, etc. In this type of agriculture, there is a use of technology and data for growing crops for food, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications, among others. Recent trends suggest that investment has increased for the CEA market. Based on one of the studies, in 2017, hundreds of millions of dollars were invested in hi-tech CEA facilities like Bowery Farms, AeroFrams and Plenty. Moreover, there is an investment by high-profile investors such as Jeff Bezos and Kimbal Musk. Well-established firms such as Goldman Sachs and Prudential have also invested in the controlled environment agriculture sector. It significantly saves land usage. For instance, when the crops are vertically stacked in the purpose-built facility, their production equals 4 to 6 acres in a single indoor acre. It varies based on the crops; if one is growing strawberries, traditional farming would need 30 acres to produce the amount which can be produced by one acre of vertical farming space. Moreover, the yield of crops is also higher in the controlled environments as there is a reduction in the effects of seasonality. CEA plays an active role in producing pharmaceutical products, especially cannabis production for cosmetics, medicinal and health supplements. Many countries are introducing licences and relaxing laws, which is leading to the expansion of the cannabis industry significantly. For instance, Europe’s CBD market is anticipated to grow more than 400% through 2023.

Recent Development
  • In September 2022: Gathom Greens, in the Series E round, raised USD 310 Million. The organization plans to use this budget to help greenhouses under construction in Georgia, Texas and Colorado. There is also a plan for facility expansion in Illinois and Rhode Island. The organization also acquired FresH2O Growers Inc, which was the producer of leafy green salad products. The acquisition also includes a 540,000-square-foot hydroponic greenhouse which supplies grocery stores in the mid-Atlantic region. This helps the organization in expanding productivity and reach.
  • In August 2020: Lufa Farms announced the launch of their fourth commercial rooftop greenhouse at Saint-Laurent, the world's largest greenhouse. It helped the organization as the production capacity become doubled. This would help the organization expand its market share in the controlled environment agriculture market.
  • In October 2017: Metropolis Farms revealed a key development in lighting technology for the growing indoor vertical agriculture sector at the Indoor Ag-Con Philly forum in Philadelphia. It led to a 60% decrease in energy use, which revolutionized the economics of indoor farming. This factor helped in growing flowering plants economically at a commercial scale. It eventually helps in expanding the controlled environment agriculture market.

Market Dynamics:

Drivers

Focus on increasing food production The global population is around 7.8 billion, which in 2050 is anticipated to reach around 9.7 billion. Increasing global food production by 70% is needed to feed everyone. If using the current farming practices, there would be a need for an extra 20% of land for fulfilling the need. Moreover, climate change is also affecting farmers globally with extreme weather patterns like heatwaves and floods. The frequency of such patterns has increased. Growing dependency on chemical herbicides and pesticides also affects the farmers and natural ecosystems. CEA offers more sustainable and profitable options by decreasing the water consumption and needs for logistics, chemical products and land use. For instance, Saudi Arabian farmers use CEA to grow fresh crops; the strong sunlight here is used for solar energy. Moreover, based on one of the studies, around one-third of the food produced worldwide gets wasted in the supply chain process. CEA helps reduce the long supply chain by allowing locally grown, quick-to-market produce. It is bought and consumed where it is produced. These factors are eventually driving the controlled environment agriculture market.

Restraints:

Operational cost is high – The operational cost for controlled environment agriculture is high due to the high demand for energy consumption and an intensive production system. Moreover, labour is needed all year round, and the labour requirement is also substantially higher than in traditional agriculture. The crop cycle in the CEA is also comparatively small; hence the timely decision for performing a specific operation is crucial. Also, there is a shortage of well-trained skilled labour in this field. These factors act as restraints for the market.

Opportunities:

Advantages of government schemes and demand from pharmaceutical companies - Indoor farming is gaining lots of attention from retailers, supermarkets, pharmaceutical organizations and investors. The supply chain also reduces in size as farmers could use CEA for growing a large variety of produce locally. It benefits everyone in the supply chain, including consumers. Moreover, CEA helps in delivering food of consistent quality and quantity. There is also no requirement to add wax coatings and preservatives to preserve fresh produce consumer-ready. Recently CEA demand has been increasing. For instance, the global vertical farming market was around USD 3.12 billion in 2019 and is estimated to reach USD 16.77 billion by 2027. Moreover, there are advantages of government schemes; like in the UK and Europe, many of the farming decisions for the crops are based on government subsidies available at the time. For encouraging more environmentally friendly land management, many grants are available for controlled environment agriculture. All these factors will drive the controlled environment agriculture market in the forecast period.

Regional segmentation analysis:

The regions analyzed for the market include North America, Europe, South America, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa. Europe emerged as the largest market for the global controlled environment agriculture market, with a 35.01% share of the market revenue in 2022.

Europe region will account for the largest market share with revenue growth. Rapid technological advancement, urbanization and high demand for vegetables and fruits are some factors that made Europe the largest player. Moreover, the European commercial greenhouse is considered the most energy-intensive sector in agriculture. Europe was the first to enforce advanced practices in greenhouses, especially in the countries like Spain, Italy and Netherlands, where big areas are under greenhouse cultivation. Also, government initiatives for promoting greenhouse farming are boosting the growth of commercial greenhouses. Based on one of the studies, some of the leading greenhouse-producing areas in Europe are Spain with around 46,000 hectares, Italy with 25,000 hectares, France with 9,500 hectares and Greece with 3,800 hectares.

  • Governments are focusing on taking initiatives to support the production of organic produce. For instance, in May 2020, European Commission came up with Farm to Fork strategy for decreasing chemical pesticide use by 50%, nutrient loss by 50% and fertilizer usage by 20%.
