Hydroponic Growing in AustraliaInnovative under-cover growing techniques and greater awareness of sustainable fruit and vegetable production are projected to drive the industry over the next five years. The industry is likely to benefit from ongoing health and nutrition concerns as well as technological advances in greenhouses. Over the next five years health consciousness and growth in consumption and expenditure are expected to positively influence demand for industry products. Demand will be further supported by positive sentiment towards locally grown products.
