Vertical farming grows crops in controlled indoor environments using stacked layers, LED lighting, and hydroponic or aeroponic growing systems. The technology produces crops year-round regardless of weather, uses 90-95% less water than field agriculture, and enables production near consumption centers. However, the sector faces significant economic challenges: the energy cost of artificial lighting makes most vertical farm crops more expensive than field-grown alternatives.
