Vertical farming LED grow lights are used in indoor growing facilities where racks of plants are stacked vertically from floor to ceiling. Vertical farming is a form of controlled environment agriculture (CEA) that enables growers to utilize the available space in the most efficient way possible. The growing need for sustainable agricultural operations that fuel the growth of the vertical farming market is driven by the rapidly growing urban population, changing climatic conditions, exhausting natural resources, depletion of soil quality, scarcity of water resources, and rising consumer demand for fresh organic products. Vertical farming is heralded as the next-generation of modern agriculture which is intended to address the issue of diminishing arable land while enabling enhancement of the freshness and nutritional content of harvested fruits and vegetables by bringing large-scale commercial grow operations into densely packed urban centers. The way for massive deployment of this high density crop production technology, to a large extent, is paved by solid stage lighting based on LED technology.
