According to a market report by Lucintel, the future of the vertical farming market looks promising with opportunities in the building based and shipping container vertical farming markets. The vertical farming market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 25% from 2019 to 2024. The major drivers for this market are rising demand for high quality food, limited use of pesticides or herbicides, and increasing demand for independent farming techniques with very less/no impact of climatic conditions.
