Indoor Vertical farming is the process of growing crops in vertically stacked layers. Notably, instead of farming vegetables and other products in a field or greenhouse, indoor vertical farming produces food on these stacked layers and is done so in a controlled environment that aims to optimize plant growth.
The process of vertical farming has risen in popularity as the population continues to increase and urban city living becomes preferable. In 2019, the vertical farming market was valued at approximately US$4.4 billion and is expected to increase to $15.7 billion by 2025.
