India hydroponics market is projected to witness a CAGR of 14.94% during the forecast period FY2025-FY2032, growing from USD 1.33 billion in FY2024 to USD 4.05 billion in FY2032. The demand from the population for fresh, chemical-free fruits and vegetables and sustainable agriculture practices that are being adopted vigorously by the farmers are the key factors contributing to the growth of the hydroponics market in India.
In hydroponic farming, the growth of many crops, such as leafy greens, vegetables, and herbs, among others, can be carried out any month of the year without the use of agricultural land, thus alleviating the dangers that come with commercial farming, which include soil erosion and weather changes. Most cities are adopting this technique due to limited land availability and increasing demand from the population that prefers wholesome organic food without pesticides.
Additionally, the advantages of this farming method are enhanced by the government's support through programs aimed at achieving sustainable development and technological advancements in hydroponic farming systems. However, its potential is hindered by several factors, including the capital-intensive nature of the projects and the technical know-how required.
While many startups and agritech-oriented ventures are escalating innovation and education in hydroponics, India is becoming an upcoming player in the global hydroponics market. In fact, in August 2023, Nailesh Kanaksi Khimji (NKK) Investments strategically partnered with UrbanKisaan Farms Private Limited to revolutionize hydroponic agricultural methods in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman to produce more with fewer resources by utilizing hydroponics and vertical farming, which will allow them to make informed investments in future.
Since the urbanization rate is always increasing and the consumers' tastes have been changing to a preference for sustainable food products, hydroponic farming will be a major factor in the transformation of agriculture in India to sustain its food security.
Supportive Government Initiatives to Fuel Market Growth
The state's encouraging policies considerably strengthen the development of the hydroponics sector in India in favor of eco-friendly agricultural practices. The Government of India has brought forth several support schemes and financial assistance mechanisms for the farmers so as to switch towards hydroponic modes of farming. For instance, the National Horticulture Board (NHB) provides generous subsidies, which could be as much as 50% of the cost of installation of the hydroponic system, depending on the state.
Additionally, in October 2024, the Union Government announced to incorporate hydroponics to its agricultural strategy, along with aquaponics, precision agriculture, and vertical farming, under the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH), which is a Central Sponsored Scheme (CSS) that facilitates the growth of fruits, vegetables, root and tuber crops, mushrooms, spices, flowers, aromatic plants, coconut, cashew, cocoa, and bamboo. The process of revising the cost norms and operational guidelines by MIDH was started by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, wherein the cost norms are expected to rise by 20%.
Along with these initiatives, training programs and materials are in place to educate the farmers about the different hydroponic methods and technologies and improve their efficiency in their work.
Public Investments to Catalyze Market Expansion
Public investments are said to be a determining factor in the development of the hydroponics sector in India. The authorities have appreciated the ability of hydroponics to cope with the problem of food and promote sustainable forms of agriculture, hence, increasing budgetary allocations for this industry. Programs such as the National Horticulture Board's provision of grants for hydroponic cultivation go a long way in helping farmers since the cost hindrances are greatly reduced, and it becomes possible for them to utilize such advanced farming practices. Moreover, companies are coming up with the launch of innovative fintech platforms to invite common people to invest in their businesses. For instance, in September 2024, Brio Agri Producer Company Ltd. launched an innovative fintech investment platform to raise investments in its hydroponics business. It is India's first fixed-return digital platform for investment, guaranteeing annual returns of up to 18%.
Such investments help to promote innovation and bring along the ecosystem that helps in the growth of startups and agritech companies working towards hydroponic solutions. Considering the surge in urbanization, the public sector and common people must invest to ensure that the demand for fresh and local produce is met through hydroponics technology for a better and more sustainable agricultural system in India.
