Global Aquaponics Market to Reach USD 2,151.97 Million by 2031 | CAGR of 10.8%

Category : Agriculture & Animal Feed | Published Date : Oct 2024 | Type : Press Release

Aquaponics Market Scope & Overview:

As per the Consegic Business Intelligence newly published report, the Aquaponics Market size was valued at USD 870.60 Million in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 2,151.97 Million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 10.8% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2031. Aquaponics is a system of cultivating plants and fish together in a mutually beneficial environment. This sustainable method integrates aquaculture (raising fish) with hydroponics (growing plants without soil), allowing the fish waste to provide nutrients for plant growth, while the plants help purify the water for the fish. Aquaponics systems can be used in both commercial and home production settings.

The increasing demand for high-quality, locally produced food is a major driver for the aquaponics market. Additionally, innovative technologies in sustainable farming are propelling the adoption of aquaponics systems, especially in urban areas with limited space for traditional farming.

Segmental Analysis :

Based on produce, the market is segmented into fish, fruits, vegetables, and others.

  • Fish accounted for the highest market share of 53.44% in 2022, driven by the increasing use of fish in aquaponics systems, which offer both plant and fish production with minimal waste.
  • Vegetables are expected to grow at the fastest rate, as aquaponics systems are particularly suited for growing high-quality organic vegetables in controlled environments.

Based on system type, the market is divided into deep water culture, nutrient film technique, and media-based systems.

  • Media-based systems held the largest market share in 2022 due to their simplicity and low cost, making them popular for small-scale and home-based aquaponics systems.
  • Nutrient film technique is projected to witness the fastest growth owing to its space-efficient design, which makes it suitable for commercial applications.

Based on component, the market is categorized into rearing tanks, settling basins, bio-filters, sump tanks, and others.

  • Rearing tanks accounted for the highest market share in 2022, as they are essential for housing fish in aquaponics systems.
  • Bio-filters are expected to grow at the fastest rate due to their role in converting fish waste into nutrients for plants, enhancing the efficiency of aquaponics systems.

Based on application, the market is divided into commercial, home production, research center, and others.

  • The commercial segment dominated the market in 2022, driven by the growing adoption of aquaponics for producing vegetables and fish for sale in local markets.
  • The home production segment is expected to grow rapidly due to increasing interest in self-sustained and organic food production.

Based on regions, the global market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Latin America.

  • North America held the largest market share in 2022, accounting for 32.31% of the market, driven by the increasing number of partnerships between educational and research institutions and private companies in the U.S.
  • Asia-Pacific is projected to witness the fastest growth, supported by government initiatives for sustainable farming in countries such as China, India, and Southeast Asian nations.
