Precision Agriculture Market Statistics: 2030

The precision agriculture market size was valued at $6,457 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $23,056 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 13.4% from 2020 to 2030.

Precision agriculture is a modern approach for farm and agriculture management which uses information technology to ensure that crops and soil receive exactly what they need for optimum health and productivity. The goal of precision agriculture is to ensure profitability, sustainability, and protection of the environment. Precision agriculture industry is known as satellite agriculture, precision farming, as-needed farming, and site-specific crop management (SSCM). Precision agriculture relies upon specialized equipment, software, and IT services. The approach includes accessing real-time data about the conditions of the crops, soil, and ambient air, along with other relevant information such as hyper-local weather predictions, labor costs, and equipment availability. Predictive analytics software uses the data to provide farmers with guidance about crop rotation, optimal planting times, harvesting times, and soil management. Sensors in fields measure the moisture content &temperature of the soil and surrounding air. Satellites and robotic drones provide farmers with real-time images of individual plants. Information from those images can be processed &integrated with sensor and other data to yield guidance for immediate & future decisions, such as precisely what fields to water and when or where to plant a particular crop.

Top Impacting Factors  

The top impacting factors on the global precision agriculture market include surge in adoption of smart phones, emergence in usage of advanced technology, and continuous growth in the population, which drive the market growth globally. However, factors such as lack of awareness about precision agriculture products and huge investments limit the market growth. Furthermore, increase in investments in technologies such as driverless tractors, guidance systems, GPS sensing systems, and strong government support for promoting the use of precision farming techniques creates lucrative opportunities in the precision agriculture market during the forecast period.

Rise in Adoption of Smart Phones in Agriculture

The rise in demand for smart phones has led to the growth in the demand for smart phone integration in precision agriculture. Companies have introduced advanced applications compatible with all smart phones. Farmers are able to monitor the field from any location and the data is stored in the cloud as backup with the help of smart phone integration. Smart phones satisfy the requirements of the farmer as it supports connectivity using Bluetooth, USB, and Wi-Fi. Thus, the surge in smart phone adoption has created immense opportunities for the global precision agriculture market. Advancement in technology makes way for improvements in the facilities used in farming. One of the most dramatic changes in the use of mobile devices in agriculture is the development of monitoring protocols &systems for monitoring &managing farms and farm workers. For instance, in December 2020, the survey done by the leading news agency which is “The Print” shows that farmers in India have adopted advanced technology and use of smart phone in farming activity has helped gain nearly double income and output than other farmers.
