Within the hardware offering of the vertical farming market, sensors segment, is anticipated to expand at the fastest pace since they managed to achieve increased adoption of innovations like artificial intelligence and IoT, as well as big data analytics. These sensors as has been discussed earlier have been shown to be very effective in monitoring many requirements in the environmental process including temperature, humidity, light and nutrient levels during the growing process. It also enhances crop production, yield and hence the efficiency and sustainability of the vertical farming systems as it also increases resource productivity. It was also noted that the concern of vertical farming has already been established in tackling challenges such as food security and sustainability of food production systems The segment of advanced sensor technologies is believed to be on the ascendancy in the future.

Buildings-based vertical farms is dominating the global vertical farming market. First of all, their general nature permits them to be set up in any climatic region, no matter unfavourable weather conditions. This makes them fit well with countries or regions having troubles in traditional farming because of the presence of deserts or cities. Secondly, the intensiveness of building-based structures of vertical farming evident, since a they can first, optimize the use of water, space and energy. Through vertical stacking, these farms are able to produce a great yield but within a limited area.
