Microgreens Market Growth Catalysts And Demand Drivers
The rising consumer interest in organic food is expected to fuel the expansion of the microgreens market going forward. Organic food products are defined as agricultural and culinary goods cultivated through specific organic farming techniques, which prioritize environmentally sustainable and natural cultivation approaches while significantly reducing the application of synthetic chemicals. Microgreens themselves are grown adhering to organic farming principles, utilizing organic soil and natural fertilizers, and deliberately avoiding synthetic pesticides and chemicals for their production as organic food. For instance, in May 2024, the Organic Trade Association, a US-based organic industry, reported that U.S. sales of certified organic products reached an unprecedented level in 2023, approaching $70 billion. The total dollar sales for the American organic market amounted to $69.7 billion, reflecting a 3.4 percent increase compared to the previous year. Therefore, the heightened demand for organic food is a key factor propelling the growth of the microgreens market.
