Description

Global Smart Farming Market Industry Overview

The global smart farming market was valued at $15.06 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $33.0 billion in 2027, following a CAGR of 16.99% during 2022-2027. The growth in the global smart farming market is expected to be driven by increase in adoption of IoT and artificial intelligence, digitalization of agriculture operations, rise in dependence on advanced technologies to enhance production across the globe.

Market Lifecycle Stage

The smart farming market is in a growing phase owing to different advanced technologies in the market. As increase in adoption of automated machineries and equipment, sensors and navigation systems, robots, autonomous vehicles, and others. Sensor is the most important hardware component used in the modern agriculture operations.

Impact

Smart farming is about using the new technologies that emerged in agriculture and livestock at the beginning of the fourth industrial revolution to increase production volume and quality by making maximum use of resources and minimizing environmental impact. Also, the implementation of technology in agriculture and livestock will make it possible to improve food security around the world.

• The use of smart farming technologies has positive impact of agriculture operations and livestock farming. These technologies offer benefits such as increased efficiency & productivity, water saving, reduced costs, pest detection and animal health, better sustainability, and others. In addition, smart farming helps farmers better understand the important factors such as water, topography, orientation, vegetation and soil types.

Impact of COVID-19

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the research & development has slowed down owing to the lack of funding, halt manufacturing activities, and components or raw material supply chain disruptions. In addition, positive impact of COVID-19 had been seen on smart farming technologies adoption such as autonomous vehicles, robots, software solutions, and sensors by farmers owing to lack of workers which is resulted in increase in demand for smart farming solutions worldwide.
