Precision Agriculture Market was worth USD 4.83 billion in 2021 and is estimated to be growing at a rate of 14.7%, to reach USD 9.59 billion by 2026.
Precision Agriculture is one of the advanced farming techniques that involve the use of technologies such as Global Positioning System, remote sensing, and Geographic Information system to gather information from the fields and make better decisions in the use of resources. Precision agriculture reduces the majority of human efforts on-field by automation. With the use of installed sensors in the field, measurement of temperature, soil humidity, and nutritional level of soil can be measured and shared with the farmers. This enables the farmer to get better yields with optimized use of resources and wastage. All this technology can be accessed by farmers through their smartphones or PCs.
Precision Agriculture Market Drivers:
Increasing the use of cloud-based technology, the growing trend of application of technology in farming to minimize losses and human efforts, increasing the use of smartphones are the major factors driving the precision agriculture market. The ease of operation of the technology and the need to maximize the production of food are also driving the growth of the market. However, the high initial investment for the installation of sensors and GPS systems, lack of proper awareness amongst farmers about the benefits of precision agriculture, and inexperience in using technology are the major factors restraining the market.
