France Indoor Farming Market Research Report, 2027

Globally, severe consequences of soil degradation include landslides and floods, an increase in pollutants, desertification, and a decrease in food supply. The loss of soil productivity brought on by land degradation is one of the major challenges to our future food security. The most vulnerable regions are emerging nations, which frequently provide middle-and high-income countries with goods and services. Many residents of low-income nations could be compelled to leave their homes in search of safety and productive land, which would lead to the loss of cultural identity and perhaps unstable political and economic conditions in other regions. France is a nation with a growing population that is constantly growing. In France, industry is also expanding quickly, which has resulted in a modest decline in the fertility of land. There are currently 67 million people living in India, and that number is rising. France is self-sufficient in food, making farming one of its most significant sectors. Cereal crops, cattle, pigs, and poultry, as well as fruits and vegetables, are all included. Despite the existence of industrial farming, a large number of farmers continue to choose to employ conventional methods and bio-farms. The most difficult challenge is feeding so many people. Indoor farming is the most prominent solution to this problem. France has several indoor farming methods, which are vertical farming, green house farming, and other methods that contribute to the country's food security. In the indoor farming sector, France has a great market size. According to the Actual Market Research (AMR) Research’s report titled “France Indoor Farming Market Overview, 2027” the indoor farming market of France is expected to grow with the around CAGR of 15% from the year 2022 to 2027. Since indoor vertical farms are totally isolated from the outside world, there are hardly any pests there. Therefore, the use of pesticides and herbicides is essentially nonexistent and the fact that the food is cultivated to be healthier, safer, and organic makes it even more alluring to customers. Growing crops in protected buildings that are coated in a transparent, or partially transparent, material is known as greenhouse farming. France adopted greenhouse farming in the 19th century. Now, greenhouse indoor farming has a great market share in the French market. Nearly 80% of the indoor farming market is covered by greenhouse farming, but the growth of the greenhouse has become quite slow as the development of new indoor farming methods. Hydroponics, Aeroponics, Aquaponics, soil-based and hybrid are new ways of approaching indoor farming. In hydroponics, a type of indoor farming, instead of using soil, plants are cultivated in media made of inert, organic materials like coconut coir, rock wool, or clay pellets. Through a complex network of pipelines, the plants' roots are continually fed with nutrients and water. In the French indoor market, hydroponics indoor farming has a significant market share, with more than 30% market share. both Aeroponics and hydroponics are suitable for indoor and urban environments and provide better results and yields than soil gardening, Aeroponics produces bigger yields, healthier plants, has lower operating costs, and appears to be the technology of the future, whereas hydroponics is simpler to set up and manage and is suitable for the majority of situations. Aeroponics is rapidly expanding in the French indoor farming market, with a CAGR of around 25% year on year. With sales of $5.5 billion, France now has the largest seafood market in Europe by value. Domestic seafood imports will rise as domestic supply cannot keep up with rising demand in France. French aquaculture is a well-established business that was among the first to emerge among EU nations. The market for Aquaponics indoor farming, which combines hydroponics and aquaculture, is expanding rapidly in France. Covid-19 impacts: In the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, many people have come to approach outside food with suspicion. As health and food safety have taken centre stage, the French have shown a preference for home cooking and self-made or home-made meals. The hotel and food industries are now in danger as a result of this. The use of urban indoor farming systems is expected to increase significantly worldwide after the deadly corona virus epidemic. During the pandemic's early stages of spread, the agriculture sector encountered difficulties. There were severe labor shortages on farms; some farmers lost their window of opportunity to harvest seasonal crops; agricultural product prices were plummeting; and logistics were disrupted. France started putting more emphasis on internal and local production after realizing how overly dependent they were on food imports. Due to the fact that many food items are either unavailable or out of stock, shopping at supermarkets and grocery shops during the pandemic may not be a pleasant experience.
