GREENHOUSE PRODUCE MARKET OVERVIEW

The Greenhouse Produce market worldwide is expected to expand from USD 6 billion in 2025 to about USD 6.3 billion in 2026, achieving nearly USD 9.68 billion by 2035, progressing at a CAGR of 4.9% over the period 2025–2035.

Greenhouse produce protects crops from adverse conditions of the weather. The frames of inflated structures are covered in a transparent material that grows crops under controlled conditions of the environment. Additionally, greenhouse crops are valued for their potential for export and it plays a significant role in the foreign trade balance of various national economies. Controlled environment plant production systems are widely used globally for growing plants at specific places or times with an exceptional quality that cannot be found outdoors. It requires more capital than field agriculture and the outcome totally justifies the investment cost. 

Greenhouse produce has developed as a way to protect crops from changing weather conditions. The consistently rising population is expected to be a major factor in the growth of the market. The food grown in greenhouses increases every year due to the consumer's demand for quality produce. The crops grown in a greenhouse protects the wrath of nature and are promoted through every step of the crop by growers that utilize intelligent controls for monitoring their crops and plants. 

Key Findings

COVID-19 IMPACT

Growing Health Concerns during the Pandemic to Encourage Market Growth

The outbreak of the pandemic imposed several regulations on the population. Which included staying indoors. The farmers and experts had to stay indoors which retarded the growth of the market. The supply went low but the demand was constant as the population was consuming the same amount of food. The market was closed, and the population could not get essential food products. The pandemic affected almost all the markets and the service market was also on the list. The lower supply of the product caused disruption in the growth of the market. The market's expansion was hampered by the suspension of the supply of food and produce. Farmers experienced difficulties in raising crops and cattle, which had a negative impact on the production of agricultural income.

LATEST TRENDS

Rising Population Increasing the Demand for Food to Surge Market Growth

The population is constantly growing in the world which is ultimately surging the demand for food and crops in the market. The government is developing various initiatives to increase awareness about the use of greenhouse produce. It offers a higher yield in comparison with the conventional farming method. The enclosed facilities create conditions for the farmers to grow crops from seeds. Expanding population coupled with the rising urbanization in countries is forecasted to aid greenhouse produce market growth. Additionally, it requires less water than outdoor farming, which is anticipated to gain traction in the global market. The plants in the vertical greenhouse, which goes through a transpiration process that makes the feasibility to reuse the water for irrigation. 

• According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, greenhouse vegetable production has increased by over 35% globally since 2015, driven by rising demand for off-season crops and water-efficient production systems. Countries such as the Netherlands and Spain report that more than 65% of tomatoes are now produced under protected greenhouse environments, highlighting a global move toward controlled agriculture.

• As per data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, about 40% of new commercial greenhouses established between 2020 and 2024 have integrated smart monitoring systems for irrigation and humidity control, significantly reducing water use by up to 25% compared to conventional systems.

GREENHOUSE PRODUCE MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

By type, the market is segmented into in-ground soil culture, container culture, tissue culture, transplant production, hydroponics, and others.

By Application

Based on application, the market is classified into vegetables, fruits, flowers, herbs, and others.

The vegetable segment is estimated to propel major market growth owing to its feasibility of growing vegetables all year round. Producing vegetables in a greenhouse protects the crops from extreme conditions such as pests, colds, storms, drought, and others.

DRIVING FACTORS

Requirement of Precise Environmental Conditions to Propel Service Demand

Climate change has challenged the environment for farming. The growing research and development activities in scientific research led to the invention of advanced techniques of farming. It is attracting scientists, farmers, and researchers to grow crops indoors. Professionals are striving to launch greenhouse farming to eliminate the basic issues of climate control in various regions. The active cooling methods are useful in generating an optimum environment for irrigation. Monitoring ideal air quality, temperature, and relative humidity becomes crucial. To flourish, they require ideal water and light conditions. The amount of nourishment made accessible to plants should be carefully monitored and progressively increased or decreased depending on the crop's stage of development. For greenhouse crops to be produced, accurate monitoring of natural resources and nutrients is essential. This requires thorough knowledge of the crop, the weather, and the crops' ideal requirements.

Low Availability of Arable Land to Foster Market Growth

The commercial greenhouse market is expanding as a result of rapid urbanization and the limited supply of arable land. Commercial greenhouses have also become commonplace as a result of the changing weather patterns that have affected conventional farming. Farmers can estimate how much they will harvest and maintain the health of their crops by having such tight control over the growth of their crops. Farmers can cultivate flowers, vegetables, and fruit all year long because they have environmental control. A greater degree of control over the environment in which crops are grown is possible when greenhouse farming is used. If farmers successfully manage the air humidity, irrigation system, light, and temperature can have a respectable yield.

• The United Nations Environment Programme reports that agricultural water usage accounts for nearly 70% of global freshwater consumption, pushing demand for greenhouse systems that use up to 90% less water through hydroponics and drip irrigation. This shift supports sustainable farming initiatives across drought-prone regions.

• According to India’s ICAR data, the adoption of greenhouse cultivation has improved average yield levels by 60–80% compared to open-field farming for crops like capsicum, tomato, and cucumber, driving adoption across developing economies where productivity gaps remain large.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Lack of Awareness and High Initial Cost to Impede Market Growth

The farmers are not well aware of this technology, which is a resistance to market growth. The initial cost of investment is higher, which limits the greenhouse produce market growth. It also requires precision technology to gain controlled growth. These factors are estimated to hinder the growth of the market. 

• Based on statistics from the European Commission’s Agriculture Directorate, the initial setup cost for a mid-sized commercial greenhouse ranges between USD 60–80 per square meter, making it challenging for smallholders to invest in infrastructure without subsidies. Approximately 52% of farmers in Eastern Europe cite capital cost as a primary deterrent.

• The USDA Economic Research Service notes that over 45% of greenhouse operators face skill shortages in climate control management and integrated pest control systems, limiting productivity and resulting in inconsistent yields across smaller facilities.
