Aquaponics Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and after the post-COVID-19 era. The growing number of aquaponic farm tours and study visits is notably driving the aquaponics market growth, although factors such as high set-up costs and maintenance costs for aquaponics may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the aquaponics industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Aquaponics Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the aquaponics market is the growing number of aquaponic farm tours and study visits. Visiting aquaponic farms is among the main tourist attractions in North American and European countries, such as the US, Canada, Italy, France, and the UK, especially for potential customers and researchers in the agriculture industry. Several aquaponic tours are organized every year in these countries, and the number of tourists visiting aquaponic farms is increasing every year. Furthermore, major commercial producers of aquaponic vegetables and fish are focusing on aquaponic tourism to upgrade the knowledge of people on the latest innovations and techniques of aquaponics. Various market vendors and aquaponic farmers are offering aquaponic tours and study visits in their establishments and operational places, where visitors are offered access to the aquaponic mechanisms and processes to get a better understanding of the technology. For instance, Ouroboros Farms, based in the US, offers public tours, private tours, and virtual tours for students, clients, and researchers. Therefore, the growing number of aquaponic farm tours and study visits are expected to gradually drive the growth of the market in focus with respect to a new clientele base during the forecast period.

Key Aquaponics Market Trend

Growing inclination toward Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) practices is another factor supporting the aquaponics market growth in the forecast period. CSA is an approach that reduces the environmental impact and ensures food security during climate change and helps in achieving a sustainable food system. Furthermore, in fisheries, climate variation leads to the reduction of fish availability. The fisheries, vegetables, and fruits industries play a key role in supporting livelihoods and ensuring food and nutrition security. So, the CSA methods like aquaponics help in reducing the impact of climate change on the growth of fish and plants. The favorable growing conditions for fish, fruits, and vegetables are created artificially in aquaponics. This makes it resilient to climate change. So, the production in aquaponics systems is not affected by soil erosion, drought, and changes in rain patterns. Moreover, the security toward climate change offered by aquaponics has encouraged many farmers to adopt aquaponics systems. Therefore, such an inclination toward CSA practices such as aquaponics is likely to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Key Aquaponics Market Challenge

High set-up costs and maintenance costs for aquaponics will be a major challenge for the aquaponics market during the forecast period. Aquaponics systems require substantial investment to set up, based on the crop to be grown. Furthermore, the annual maintenance cost of aquaponics consists of the electricity cost for the water pump that circulates water through the aquaponics system. The fish tank also needs to be maintained at a certain temperature. Therefore, the continuous power requirements also increase the need for proper power backup facilities in the aquaponic atmosphere. It may also increase the overall set-up cost for aquaponics. In indoor set-ups, required temperature artificial lightings need to be maintained to provide favorable conditions for the plant growth, thereby incurring additional cost. Likewise, farmers require a license for aquaponic food production. For instance, farmers in Florida require the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services license. This license requirement results in additional cost, as it can be significantly expensive for numerous small-sized aquaponics farmers. Hence, these factors may affect the growth of the market during the forecast period.
