Environment Controllers Market for Agricultural Greenhouse Global Market Report 2024

The environment controllers market for agricultural greenhouse market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5 billion in 2023 to $5.4 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.0%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to a heightened demand for controlled environment agriculture (CEA), escalating concerns related to population growth and food security, endeavors to optimize crop yield and quality, a focus on resource efficiency and sustainability, and supportive measures from governments, including incentives.

The environment controllers market for agricultural greenhouse market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.5 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be credited to strategies aimed at adapting to climate change, the adoption of precision agriculture and smart farming practices, a growing emphasis on indoor farming, a global trend favoring sustainable agriculture, and innovation driven by market demands and customization. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass the implementation of climate control strategies, automation of water management and irrigation, the integration of sustainable practices, a focus on user-friendly interfaces, and the facilitation of remote monitoring and control through mobile devices.

The anticipated growth in the environment controllers market for agricultural greenhouses is expected to be propelled by increasing investment in vertical farming. Vertical farming involves growing crops in vertically stacked layers or shelves, utilizing artificial lighting, controlled environmental conditions, and nutrient supply in a vertical space. Environment controller systems play a crucial role in establishing optimal growing conditions for plants in vertical farming, considering factors such as temperature, carbon dioxide levels, oxygen, lighting, humidity, nutrient content, pH, insect control, watering, and harvesting, all of which contribute to enhancing yield. As an illustration, in March 2023, the Saudi Public Investment Fund, in collaboration with Aero Farms, a US-based sustainable indoor agricultural company, unveiled a new vertical farming project in Saudi Arabia and other regions in the Middle East and North Africa. This initiative aims to address the challenges posed by a growing population and decreasing arable land, setting a crop production target of 1.1 million kilograms (2.4 pounds) per year. Therefore, the increasing investment in vertical farming is a driving force behind the growth of the environment controllers market for the agricultural greenhouse sector.

The rising demand for food is expected to drive the growth of the environmental controllers market for agricultural greenhouses. Food, defined as any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body, is typically of plant or animal origin and contains essential nutrients. The environment controllers market for agricultural greenhouses contributes to sustaining food production to meet the needs of a growing population through advanced climate management technology. For example, a report by the World Food Programme, an Italy-based humanitarian organization, revealed in July 2022 that approximately 828 million people globally were affected by hunger in 2021. This marked an increase of 46 million from the previous year and a rise of 150 million people since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the growing demand for food is a key driver of the environmental controllers market for agricultural greenhouses.

Technological advancements stand out as a prominent trend gaining momentum in the environment controllers market for agricultural greenhouses. Companies engaged in this market are actively embracing new technologies to maintain and strengthen their positions. For example, in November 2022, Certhon B.V., a Netherlands-based company specializing in greenhouse construction and technology solutions, introduced SupriSun. This innovation comprises distinctive screens and dimmable LED illumination designed for managing light levels in indoor farming. SupriSun integrates unique screens, customizable LED illumination, climate systems, and dehumidification to ensure uniform and controllable light, providing an energy-efficient solution for indoor gardening. It allows precise management of the growth environment, addressing plant needs while benefiting from natural sunlight in terms of heat and light.

Major players in the environmental controllers market for agricultural greenhouses are actively developing intelligent control systems, including closed-loop AI systems, to deliver value to greenhouse operators and optimize profits. A closed-loop AI system is an artificial intelligence system that continuously receives feedback from its environment, allowing it to adapt and enhance performance in real-time. For instance, in June 2023, IUNU, a US-based industrial computer vision company, launched LUNA AI, an autonomous climate control technology. Utilizing computer vision for analyzing climate and plant performance data, LUNA AI provides optimal crop strategies and autonomously implements them. It is recognized as the sole closed-loop AI system for autonomous climate control in horticulture, making real-time adjustments based on comprehensive plant performance data. This technology empowers greenhouse operators to improve profitability by autonomously controlling climate setpoints, effectively closing the crop/climate feedback loop for efficient management.

In April 2022, Blue Lab Corporation Limited, a New Zealand-based agriculture technology company, acquired Autogrow Systems Limited for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move aims to expand Blue Lab Corporation's operations into new regions and diversify its portfolio of technological products for clients in the horticulture sector. Autogrow Systems Limited, based in New Zealand, is an indoor agriculture technology company specializing in manufacturing environment controllers.
