Japan Commercial Greenhouse Market Overview, 2029

The magnificent floral arrangements found in Japan's commercial greenhouse industry are well-known. The Shibazakura Festival, which takes place in Chichibu City's Hitsujiyama Park, is one noteworthy occasion. Greenhouses cultivate and showcase a vibrant carpet of pink moss phlox (shibazakura) that blankets the park, creating a picturesque landscape. In Japan, commercial greenhouses are used to grow unique and sought-after produce. One example is the Sakurajima radish, grown on Sakurajima Island near Kagoshima. This large, crisp, and slightly sweet radish is famous for its size, weighing up to several kilograms, and is a local specialty. With limited land availability in urban areas, commercial greenhouses have found their place on the rooftops of buildings in cities like Tokyo and Osaka. Japan's agricultural landscape is distinguished by a distinctive crop culture that prioritizes high-quality products, particularly rice, vegetables, and fruits. Although only around 12% of the nation's land is suitable for farming, Japan is renowned for its intensive agricultural methods that optimize production. The population, while on the decline, is predominantly urban, which drives the demand for fresh, locally sourced produce. The evolution of agriculture in Japan has been marked by the adoption of modern techniques, including precision farming and urban agriculture. The government has introduced various reforms to assist farmers, such as subsidies for new technology adoption and initiatives to promote organic farming. Nonetheless, the sector grapples with challenges like an aging workforce and a shortage of successors, leading to innovative strategies aimed at engaging younger individuals in agriculture.

According to the research report, "Japan Commercial Greenhouse Market Outlook, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the Japan Commercial Greenhouse market is anticipated to add to more than USD 360 Million by 2024–29.The rise of commercial greenhouses in Japan is accelerating as farmers look for effective ways to cultivate crops throughout the year while addressing climate variability. Greenhouses provide controlled environments that improve both crop quality and yield, while also decreasing dependence on labor-intensive methods. The incorporation of cutting-edge technologies, such as robotics and smart farming solutions, is revolutionizing traditional agricultural practices, enhancing efficiency and sustainability. This transition is bolstered by government efforts to modernize the agricultural sector and boost food self-sufficiency. As urban agriculture gains traction, commercial greenhouses are increasingly viewed as a practical solution to satisfy the growing demand for fresh produce in urban areas. With substantial investments in technology and infrastructure, the future of Japan's greenhouse sector appears bright, aligning with global movements towards sustainable food production and ensuring food security in the face of demographic challenges.

The Japanese commercial greenhouse market is divided into two main segments: glass greenhouses and plastic greenhouses. Historically, glass greenhouses have been the dominant type, particularly in regions with high snowfall. They offer excellent light transmission and temperature control, but are expensive to construct and maintain. In recent years, however, plastic greenhouses have experienced significant growth, driven by factors such as lower initial cost, greater flexibility, and advancements in materials and construction techniques. Plastic greenhouses are now the larger segment of the Japanese market, particularly for growing crops like tomatoes and cucumbers. They are well-suited to the country's climate and agricultural practices, and offer a more cost-effective and sustainable alternative to glass greenhouses. The shift towards plastic greenhouses is also supported by government initiatives promoting greenhouse agriculture and the increasing demand for fresh, locally grown produce in Japan.

The Japan commercial greenhouse market is a thriving industry that is heavily influenced by the various types of technologies used for heating, cooling, and other applications. The "By Technology" segment of this market encompasses the different systems employed to regulate the environment within these greenhouse facilities. The heating system segment is a crucial component, as it helps maintain optimal temperatures for plant growth, especially during the colder months. Cooling systems, on the other hand, play a vital role in managing heat and humidity levels, ensuring the crops are not subjected to stress-inducing conditions. Additionally, the "Others" category covers a range of supplementary technologies, such as lighting systems, irrigation controls, and monitoring devices, all of which work in tandem to create the ideal growing environment. Within this landscape, the cooling system segment is currently leading the market, driven by the increasing demand for climate-controlled greenhouses that can accommodate a wider variety of crops and extend the growing season.

COVID-19 Impacts:
The commercial environment greenhouse business is not exempt from the ongoing effects of the corona virus (COVID-19) menace in the Canada. The COVID-19 epidemic is having a detrimental effect on agriculture's whole supply chain, which has an effect on the demand for commercial greenhouses. The epidemic is causing lockdown conditions over the Canada. The supply-chain interruption has made it difficult for many producers in the greenhouse sector to ship their goods. In addition, the government of the Russiahas declared a state of lockdown and ordered social isolation in an effort to stop the spread of the disease, which has caused imports and exports to be slowed down and limited. Due to their inadequate supply chains, suppliers to commercial greenhouses suffered.

The approach of the report:
This report consists of a combined approach of primary as well as secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and listing out the companies that are present in the market. The secondary research consists of third-party sources such as press releases, annual report of companies, analyzing the government generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources primary research was conducted by making telephonic interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducted trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this we have started doing primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting consumers in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us we have started verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.
