Market Definition
Horticulture mainly deals with ornamental plants, garden crops, fruits, and vegetables. And artificial lights deployed to enable photosynthesis in such settings, when lacking natural daylight, are referred to as Horticulture lighting.
These are adopted in numerous urban farming applications such as indoor farming, vertical farming, greenhouses, and others to upscale the plants' growth. Since this practice requires specialized lighting, usually a mix of different wavelengths needed for plant development, the manufacturers focus on several parameters that help in measuring the optimal lighting and photosynthetic photon flux (PPF).
Market Insights
The Global Horticulture Lighting Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 21.1% during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-28. The market is driven by the exponentially rising population throughout the world entwined with a rapid climate change, resulting in greater food demand and immense pressure on the agriculture industry. Such swift augmentation in need can only be satiated through additional modern ways like indoor farming that requires horticulture lighting. Additionally, the growing propensity for home-grown fruits and vegetables fuels the market during the forecast period.

Besides, with the government demonstrating keenness in promoting the adoption of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) practices and SSL technology, the market for horizontal lighting is anticipated to grow substantially in the forecast years. In addition, the vast influx of funds encouraging vertical farms & greenhouses projects, alongside the ongoing legalization of cannabis cultivation is further boosting the foothold of the players in the market.
Another prominent factor observing a positive influence on the market is a sudden rise in health consciousness after the pandemic, leading to more inclination toward healthy and organic food and thus furthering horticulture practices.
Moreover, the sudden shift towards sustainable living leads to the adoption of such light as they comply with the proper safety and performance requirements, further contributing to the market expansion. Furthermore, practices such as vertical framing and greenhouse are anticipated to emerge as an area of remunerative opportunities for the leading players in the Global Horticulture Lighting Market during the projected time frame.
