The Japan indoor farming market size is projected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4% during 2024-2032. The limited availability of fertile land, harsh weather conditions that make traditional farming challenging, and rising interest in sustainability to promote environmental health represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Indoor farming, also known as controlled environment agriculture, refers to the practice of cultivating plants within an enclosed setting, such as a greenhouse, and a completely closed environment like a warehouse. It relies on vertical farming structures, which enables growers to cultivate plants in stacks and make most of the available space. It allows for the year-round growth of plants, independent of external weather conditions, by controlling factors like light, temperature, humidity, and nutrient levels. It requires significantly less water than traditional soil-based farming as the water in these systems is recirculated. It helps eliminate the need for pesticides as it provides a controlled environment that can be kept free of pests and diseases. It enables the cultivation of fresh produce in urban areas, reduces transportation distances and improves access to fresh food. Moreover, it provides an ideal platform for plant research and allows scientists to control and manipulate the growing environment to better understand plant growth and development.
Indoor farming in Japan is currently experiencing growth, largely driven by a combination of societal, technological, and environmental factors. The increasing aging population of the country is gradually leading to a decrease in the workforce involved in traditional farming. This is promoting the adoption of less labor-intensive farming methods, such as indoor farming. Additionally, a large population of Japan is residing on a relatively smaller land area, much of which is mountainous and arable land. As a result, vertical farming, a type of indoor farming, is gaining popularity due to its ability to maximize crop yield per square meter, making efficient use of available space. Moreover, the country is frequently exposed to harsh weather conditions, such as typhoons and heavy rainfall, which devastates outdoor crops. This, in turn, is increasing the need for indoor farming as a more reliable and resilient method of food production. Additionally, advancements in technologies, such as light-emitting diode (LED) lighting, automation, and artificial intelligence are enhancing the efficiency and productivity of indoor farms in Japan. Besides this, innovations in hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics systems are also driving the market in the country.
