As per the data published on the website of the IMARC Group, the global grow light market size reached USD 4.8 Billion in 2024. Using energy-efficient light-emitting diode (LED) grow lights facilitates plant cultivation year-round by providing the best-suited light spectra for plant growth, while minimizing the electricity bill. With the improvements in sensors and artificial intelligence (AI), predictive analytics is made available for crop health detection, allowing early detection of nutrient deficiencies in crops and pests infestation. Automation and Internet of Things (IoT) applications integration allows precise monitoring, alongside maintaining critical parameters. These technologies also decrease dependence on manual labor that reduces cost along with improving productivity, making hydroponics accessible to small-scale and commercial farmers.

According to the data published on the IMARC Group’s website, the global regenerative agriculture market size reached USD 10.1 Billion in 2024. One of the most significant reasons that drive the hydroponics market is the increasing demand for sustainable agricultural practices as hydroculture offers solutions to global farming for efficient resource management. Compared to traditional soil-based agriculture, hydroponics consumes less water, mitigating water scarcity concerns in many regions. By recycling and measuring out the nutrients and water usage, hydroponics reduces waste and environmental impacts. This method decreases the dependency on arable land as it eliminates the need of soil in agriculture. Hydroponics excludes the use of synthetic pesticides and herbicides to produce cleaner and healthier crops. One of the important applications of hydroponics is in vertical farming where it assists in reducing carbon emissions and makes fresh produce easily available in cities.
