Market Definition

Hydroponics is a type of horticulture & a subset of hydroculture, which involves growing plants, usually crops or medicinal plants, without soil, using water-based mineral nutrient solutions in aqueous solvents.

Market Insights & Analysis: UAE Hydroponics Market (2024-30)

The UAE Hydroponics Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 15.2% during the forecast period, i.e., 2024-30. Most of the market growth would be propelled by the ever-rising water challenges, food security issues, and increasing government focus on promoting sustainable agricultural techniques. The UAE receives a low annual rainfall & has limited water resources, owing to which, several water challenges are emerging. Since more than 90% of the country's groundwater is saline, it cannot be used directly for agricultural purposes. As a result, farmers are adopting a sustainable agriculture solution, hydroponics, thereby fueling market expansion.

Further, the UAE has been dependent majorly on other countries like India for crops & vegetables. Hence, even the slightest change in international prices causes fluctuation in the domestic prices of crops & vegetables. According to the Foreign Agriculture Service, the UAE imported over 90% of its food products, such as wheat, rice, etc., from other countries & spent around USD14 billion to import food in 2020. Therefore, the government is encouraging farmers to opt for these systems to mitigate this dependence, i.e., stimulating market growth.

Moreover, the UAE Government has also taken initiatives such as National Food Security Strategy 2051, the Ziraai program, etc., to promote sustainable agriculture & is massively investing in the expansion of the agricultural sector. For instance, in 2020, the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (Adafsa) funded over USD173 million to upscale the local production of crops in the region & enhance the farming and livestock sector. Similarly, in 2019, the government of the UAE invested around USD272 million to boost agricultural technology startups by providing them with tax incentives. Hence, these government-led programs & investments to improve domestic production in the UAE are expected to have a positive effect on the UAE Hydroponics Market size in the years to come.
