About Urban Agri World (UAW 2023)

Many countries and companies are expressing strong interest in vertical farming business and urban agriculture. It is a solution to the weather and pests problems, food security, water, power and land requirements, climate change and environmental preservation challenges. Commercialization of vertical farming is catching on in Asia, Europe, USA, and now Africa. Many private companies are interested in growing crops in hydroponic, aquaponics and aeroponics systems in warehouses, greenhouses, containers and high skyscrapers. There is also a burgeoning interest in the production of medicinal plants in vertical farms following the new rulings on cannabis production for medicinal use. UAW 2023 will touch on the pressing issues pertaining to progressive farming developments for the urban, indoor and vertical farming industry.

“The global vertical farming market size stood at $3.98 billion in 2021, and it is expected to advance at a compound annual growth rate of 25.2% during 2021-2030, to reach $30.2 billion by 2030…. Advanced agriculture techniques help growers produce around 230 times more crop yields than traditional farming” _{(P & S Intelligence)}
