Top Players in the Precision Agriculture Market

The global precision agriculture market reached a value of US$ 8.5 Billion in 2023. As per the analysis by IMARC Group, the precision agriculture market is currently witnessing radical changes due to the latest advancements in research and technology. One such expertise is the variable rate application (VRA), which focuses on the automated application of materials, such as fertilizers, chemicals, and seeds, in a given landscape. This technology includes the use of wireless sensor-equipped smart drones that map the property and gather data on soil moisture, crop and livestock health, soil fertility, local climate, insect-disease-weed infestation, irrigation systems, and nutrition levels. This is helping farmers, especially cotton growers, in distinguishing patterns, improving irrigation strategies, providing a more targeted response, increasing profitability, and predicting potential risks and changes. Furthermore, satellites and other location monitoring tools are being used by producers to collect information and estimate the amount of water in the soil and crop biomass, which is especially useful in water scarce areas. This data is later used by crop insurance companies, governments, scientists, and policymakers. Additionally, key players are deploying the internet of things (IoT), which enables the control of multiple equipment simultaneously. IoT improves software maintenance, optimizes pest control, introduces new solutions for farm management, and protects the crops more efficiently. In line with this, manufacturers are also introducing long-range network protocols, like low-power wide-area network (LPWAN), as a part of intelligent family solution, which is proving to be beneficial for the precision agriculture market. Moreover, the application of robotics in agriculture is helping in automating repetitive tasks, such as harvesting, picking, and weed control, for farmers. This, in turn, has enabled a production-controlled farming system, skilled farm management, and data-driven decision-making processes, which is creating a positive outlook for the market. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 20.2 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.9% during 2024-2032.
