Precision farming is a technology through which the crop yield can be increased, and the cost of production can be reduced by changing the traditional agriculture methods with advanced IT-based agriculture methods such as Big Data analysis and artificial intelligence. Precision farming identifies site-specific differences within the field and adjusts the management action, instead of managing entire field based on hypothetical average conditions. Moreover, precision farming offers the potential to simplify and automate the data collection and analysis. Moreover, precision farming also assists in the decision-making process for optimising the production capacities.
Global Precision Farming Market size:
Global precision farming market size is projected to reach approximately $9.60 billion by 2024 from $5.01 million in 2017 with a CAGR of 13.40% during the forecast timeline 2019-2024. The primary drivers for the precision farming market include a rise in strain on the global food supply owing to increasing population, cost savings associated with precision farming techniques, and government regulations to adopt modern agricultural techniques are the drivers boosting the growth of the market. Precision farming is capturing popularity among farmers due to the rise in global warming have spurred the adoption of advanced farming technologies to enhance farm productivity and crop yield. On the flip side, substantial initial investments on R&D and lack of technological knowledge among farmers are some of the restraints hampering the market growth. Rising usage of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)/drones in precision farming and integration of smartphones with IoT devices and software applications are the opportunities that are driving the market growth during the forecast period (2019-2024).
