액티브 수경재배 시스템 시장 예측(-2030년) : 제품 유형, 작물 유형, 판매채널, 용도, 최종사용자, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Active Hydroponics Systems Market is accounted for $5.45 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $8.69 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period. Active hydroponic systems are those that use mechanical or electrical components to move water and nutrients to plant roots, ensuring consistent delivery. These systems typically involve pumps, air stones, or other devices to circulate nutrient solutions through grow media or directly to the plant roots. Active systems tend to provide more control over water and nutrient flow, promoting faster growth and higher yields, but they require more maintenance and energy than passive systems.

According to the UN, by 2050, the global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion, increasing food demand by 70%. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), hydroponic farming reduces water consumption by up to 70%, making it essential for arid regions.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing urbanization and decreasing agricultural land

The market is growing due to increasing urbanization and the decline of available agricultural land. As cities expand and arable land becomes scarce, hydroponic systems offer a sustainable solution for food production in urban areas. These systems use water-efficient methods and minimal space, making them ideal for densely populated regions. The need for efficient, resource-saving agriculture drives demand for advanced hydroponic technology, promoting sustainable urban farming practices and addressing food security challenges.

Restraint:

Technical knowledge and expertise

The lack of technical knowledge and expertise can hinder the growth of the market. Without proper understanding, system setup and maintenance may be inefficient, leading to poor crop yields or system failures. High-tech hydroponic systems require skilled operators to optimize nutrient delivery, water management, and environmental control. A shortage of expertise may result in increased operational costs, system inefficiencies, and reduced profitability, limiting the adoption of hydroponics in both commercial and residential applications.

Opportunity:

Growing demand for fresh and healthy food

The growing demand for fresh and healthy food is fueling the market. Consumers are increasingly seeking high-quality, pesticide-free produce, leading to a shift toward hydroponics for its ability to grow crops without chemicals and in controlled environments. These systems ensure optimal growth conditions, yielding nutrient-rich food year-round. With rising awareness about the benefits of healthy eating and sustainable farming, hydroponics provides a solution to meet the demand for fresh, locally grown produce in urban settings.

Threat:

Limited crop variety

Limited crop variety in the market can restrict its overall appeal and growth potential. Most hydroponic systems are optimized for certain crops like lettuce, herbs, and leafy greens, leaving other crops less suited for this method. This limitation can reduce market diversity and make systems less attractive to consumers seeking a wider selection of produce. It also creates challenges for scaling hydroponic farming as a broader solution to food production, hindering its long-term sustainability and growth.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the market. On one hand, disruptions in supply chains and labor shortages slowed production and implementation of hydroponic systems. On the other hand, the pandemic heightened awareness of food security and the benefits of local, sustainable farming, leading to increased interest in hydroponic farming solutions. As consumers sought healthier, locally grown food, the market saw a boost in demand for home-based and urban hydroponic systems.

The aeroponic systems segment is expected to be the largest market share during the forecast period

The aeroponic systems segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. In aeroponics, plants grow with their roots suspended in air and are periodically misted with a nutrient solution. This method promotes faster plant growth, higher yields, and reduced resource consumption compared to traditional soil-based farming. As urban farming and sustainable agriculture become more important, aeroponic systems offer a space-saving, water-efficient solution, driving demand in both commercial and residential sectors.

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

Over the forecast period, the greenhouse farming segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. By combining hydroponics with greenhouse technology, growers can regulate temperature, humidity, and light, allowing for year-round production of high-quality crops. This method enhances yield and reduces resource usage, such as water and space. As demand for sustainable and efficient farming solutions increases, greenhouse hydroponic systems are becoming a popular choice for both commercial and urban agriculture, boosting market growth.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share. Urbanization, limited arable land, and growing consumer interest in healthy, locally grown food are driving the adoption of hydroponics. The market benefits from technological advancements, government support, and rising awareness of environmental issues. The region's well-established infrastructure and investment in agricultural innovation further enhance the growth of hydroponic systems, making it a key region for the development.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR. Hydroponics offers a sustainable alternative to traditional agriculture by reducing water usage and eliminating the need for pesticides. Innovations in hydroponic systems, such as automated nutrient delivery and climate control, have enhanced system efficiency and appeal. Furthermore, the shift towards urban living has increased the demand for space-efficient farming solutions like hydroponics.
