Drivers

Emphasis on Food Security

• Rapid increase in global population has led to increased efforts around the world to improve food security. Greenhouses provide controlled environments for year-round cultivation, boosting crop yields and minimizing reliance on traditional farming, which helps in providing food security in uncertain climates and unfavorable growing conditions as well. This why emphasis on food security is driving the greenhouse demand outlook.

High Demand for Organic Food Products

• Increasing health consciousness among people and rising awareness regarding the ill effects of chemical use in agriculture have bolstered the demand for organic food products. Greenhouses offer a controlled setting to grow organic produce with minimal to no need for chemical or synthetic agricultural products thereby making them a mainstay in organic farming practices.

Restraints

High Initial Investments

• Setting up a greenhouse initially has some substantial infrastructure development costs involving lighting, heating, and irrigation systems. Most small-scale farmers are not capable of making such high initial investments, which in turn, is expected to slow down the adoption of greenhouses on a global level over the coming years.

Limited Adoption in Developing Countries

• Lack of proper financing and affordable credit alternatives for farmers to set up greenhouses in developing countries is projected to impede greenhouse market growth potential in the long run. Setting up proper financing alternatives for greenhouses in low to middle income countries will be crucial in overcoming the issue of limited adoption in developing countries through 2031.
