These are used as roofs in greenhouses to shelter the plants inside of greenhouses from the larger world outside. These are also employed to grow plants that need a specially controlled climate to grow. The main resin types of greenhouse films are low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is used for making shopping bags, dry cleaning bags, flexible bottles, and construction and agricultural films. The various functionalities are diffused GHF, photo-selective GHF, anti-dirt GHF, and other functionality with various widths such as 4.5 meters, 5.5 meters, 7 meters, and 9 meters, and other width types and thicknesses such as 80-200 microns, 200 microns, and >200 microns. These are used in vegetables, fruit, flowers, and others (transplants and ornamental).   The greenhouse film market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides greenhouse film market statistics, including greenhouse film industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a greenhouse film market share, detailed greenhouse film market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the greenhouse film industry.

The global agriculture market grew from $12,245.63 billion in 2022 to $13,398.79 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The agriculture market is expected to grow to $19,007.8 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 9.1%. The world's population is growing and is expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. An increase in the population creates more demand for food. According to the Agricultural Outlook by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) published, global cereal production was projected to increase by 13% by 2027. Crop production, farming activities, and trade volumes will have to increase to meet the needs of the increased population. Agribusiness companies will increase acquisitions of arable land to increase crop production. Agriculture companies are expected to increase their presence and activities to meet increased demand from farming activities and increase their growth. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the agriculture market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and has spread globally, including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. As governments imposed lockdowns, farmers faced difficulties in harvesting and marketing their produce. Also, the export of agricultural produce declined significantly as countries imposed restrictions on cross-border trade. The outbreak is expected to continue to hurt businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the agriculture market will recover from the shock over the forecast period as it is a "black swan" event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. A shortage of labour and increasing demand for advanced agriculture tools in many countries is driving the demand for agriculture robots, or agribots.
