Europe Commercial Greenhouse Market Outlook, 2027

Europe Commercial Greenhouse Market Outlook, 2027

The European commercial greenhouse represents one of the most intensive energy sectors in agriculture and strongly contributes to increasing the energy and environmental vulnerability within regions having large greenhouse farming systems. Specifically, the European greenhouse farming sector is facing a trend that responds to the changing consumer’s demands in a society that, globally, is increasingly prosperous. Europe has been the first to implement enhanced techniques in greenhouses, particularly in countries such as Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands, where large areas are under greenhouse cultivation. Because of urbanization, rapid technological advancements, and the high demand for fruits and vegetables, Europe is the largest player. Government initiatives to promote greenhouse farming are acting as a catalyst for the growth of these commercial greenhouses. Countries such as Russia are increasingly adopting greenhouse farming so as to implement sustainable farming in their country, thus augmenting the commercial greenhouse market's growth. In Europe, the largest greenhouse producing areas are Spain (46,000 hectares), Italy (25,000 hectares), France (9,500 hectares) and Greece (3,800 hectares). The integration of renewable energy resources and technologies into existing greenhouse agriculture represents a great opportunity to supply most of the yearly energy demand in European horticulture.

According to the report titled ""Europe Commercial Greenhouse Market Outlook, 2027"", published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to grow at a 10.40% CAGR for 2022–2027. Furthermore, the European region is dominating the global commercial greenhouse market with more than 34% in 2021. In Europe, many market players are establishing the infrastructure for greenhouse systems across the region. For instance, the 35,000 hectares of solar greenhouses located in Almeria and the Granada coast have become Europe's healthy pantry, mainly from autumn to spring, when continental production is not possible in other countries due to low temperatures. Andalusia's solar greenhouses have become a reference in agriculture industry, as the optimal weather conditions in this area of Spain united with the modern, sustainable, and innovative production systems used in the greenhouses have allowed them to have a clear production and export capacity. Six out of ten vegetables consumed across the region are grown in solar greenhouses in southern Spain.

The European commercial greenhouse market is segmented into six prominent countries, including Germany, the UK, France, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands. Among these countries, the Netherlands is anticipated to lead the market during the forecast period. With lack of agricultural land and a rainy climate, the Netherlands has learned to use land and production systems in an efficient and inventive way to maximize yields. This has helped to grow a concentration of specialized greenhouse companies in the country that is unique in the world. Based on these factors, the Netherlands is considered a leader in efficient and sustainable agriculture and the second-largest exporter of agricultural goods in the globe. The Westland portion in the Netherlands has the highest concentration rate of greenhouse farms in the world, producing all kinds of crops including tomatoes, paprika, cucumbers, carrots, etc.

According to the report, the European commercial greenhouse market is segmented into cooling systems and heating systems. Among these types, heating systems are dominating the market with more than 65% owing to increasing demand for the segment across the region. Besides that, other technologies such as lighting, irrigation, fertigation systems, shading, etc. are also taking active participation to fuel the market growth by 2027. Further, the market is segmented into glass greenhouses and plastic greenhouses. Among these types, plastic greenhouses are expected to lead the market by 2027 due to the rise in environmental concerns across the world. The higher yield capacity than traditional methods and the challenges of climate change are also expected to drive the market for plastic greenhouses over the forecast period. Based on the component type, the high-tech greenhouse segment occupied more than 65% of the market share in 2021. It makes it possible to intensify production and it imposes less risk as the technological equipment serves to enhance the health of the crops.

Covid-19 impact
In Europe, the productivity and sustainability of agriculture and food systems were threatened by pandemic outbreaks of disease and pests. As seen across the world, the lockdowns in Europe had significantly disrupted food supply chains. Labor shortages have impeded farmers’ ability to harvest crops and regional distribution systems have been impeded by varying degrees of border closures. However, the relative stability of the European agriculture sector aids in their quick response to the crisis and their ability to look forward for proactive measures. Leaders in the region have called for increasing flexibility in the supply. These factors are projected to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
