Greenhouse Irrigation Systems Market Forecasts to 2028 - Global Analysis By Type, Farm Size, Power Source, Product, Application and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Greenhouse Irrigation Systems Market is accounted for $1.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $2.5 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period. A greenhouse is a framed building with a transparent roof. In a regulated atmosphere, greenhouses assist in the production of fruit, flower, and vegetable crops. Greenhouse system has the ability to grow high yield crops on a smaller scale. This method of crop cultivation aids in the protection of crops from unfavourable weather conditions. Greenhouse irrigation systems may be automated for hassle-free operation in addition to helping irrigate the whole greenhouse at once, saving time and energy. It contributes to increased production, financial success, and sustainable agricultural practices.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rapid growth in vegetable production

In order to support the world population's rapid expansion, agriculture production must be greatly increased. The variety of diets throughout the world is growing and consumers are including more high-value vegetables into their diets. In response to the current market conditions, farmers all over the world are increasing the proportion of vegetables in their crop portfolios, which not only increases their gross receipts but also helps them improve their cash flow. This is anticipated to expand dramatically, leading to a greater demand for greenhouse irrigation systems.

Restraint:

High setup & maintenance costs

Drip irrigation is the most expensive irrigation method to install and operate because of the significant labor expenses involved with removal, installation, and seasonal maintenance. Irrigation systems for greenhouses need to be regularly checked and maintained to make sure there are no leaks or blocked nozzles. To remove obstructions, the sprinklers should be cleaned often. All of these elements are impeding market expansion.

Opportunity:

Rising government initiatives

By providing low-interest loans and incentives, governments all around the world are supporting the installation of cutting-edge micro-irrigation systems. The popularity of initiatives like the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana and the National Horticulture Mission accelerated. These policies place a strong emphasis on developing secure irrigation supplies as well as protective irrigation by capturing rainwater at the micro scale and provide a 50% subsidy up to a maximum of 50 lakhs. These elements are fuelling the market demand.

Threat:

Lack of technical knowledge

The lack of technical knowledge and mistrust were the biggest obstacles to greenhouse growers capacity to adapt to new technologies. Since most greenhouse farms are tiny and it might be difficult to find spare time for training activities, there are typically not enough trained workers employed there. In addition, many farmers had poor levels of education and were elderly, which made it more difficult for them to be aware of the training problems. This can impact the farm growth and can create huge capital loss which is hampering the market growth.

COVID-19 Impact:

The effects of COVID-19 had not negatively affected agricultural productivity. Nonetheless, there has been a significant loss of revenue from flowers and ornamental plants. Due to decreasing product prices and the inability to market the crops as previously, producers in the instance of vegetables suffered losses. Vegetable, fruit, and flower shipments were hampered by the global shutdown. Because there aren't enough migrant labourers, harvesting has been put on hold. As a result of the supply chain disruption, farmers experienced negative profitability.

The capillary irrigation system segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The capillary irrigation system segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to its crop uniformity. Capillary irrigation is a type of sub irrigation that delivers water to a plant from a water source at or below the base of the growth bed. To supply exact moisture levels, it employs low-pressure water. This method of irrigation may be utilized in outdoor areas as well as greenhouses and doesn't need any pumps or power. It is frequently used for plants including flowers, vegetables, turf grasses, and other decorative plants that require continual care.

The vegetables segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The vegetables segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to its huge cultivation irrespective of the climatic conditions. Some of the most popular vegetable crops cultivated in greenhouses include cucumbers, basil, tomatoes, and lettuce. Greenhouse irrigation is suitable for growing vegetables in a number of ways, starting off hardy vegetable plants to getting earlier harvests of tender plants. It enables good yield with high quality which is fuelling the segment's demand.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the enormous population and rapid economic growth. The substantial population in this area contributes to high end-product consumption. On top of that, governments in the region are encouraging the deployment of cutting-edge micro-irrigation systems by offering low-interest loans and subsidies. The market demand in this area is being driven by these initiatives and rising demand in economies like China, India, and Japan.

Region with highest CAGR:

Middle East and Africa is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to rising demand for food consumption. Government funding for greenhouse farming has contributed to the region's noticeable expansion. The key factor driving the use of greenhouse irrigation systems is the region's water shortage problems. Also, changes in environmental conditions are bolstering the market over the forecast period.
