The global precision farming/agriculture market size was valued at 3,833 million in 2017 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 14.7% during the forecast period. Precision farming is an accurate and controlled method of crop farming aimed at maximizing quality, productivity, sustainability, and profitability. It is also known as site specific crop management (SSCM) and satellite farming. It involves collection, tracking, monitoring, and analyzing of real-time data regarding crops, soil, water requirements, weather conditions, nutrient demand, and other environmental factors. Various technologies such as high precision positioning systems such as GPS, geomapping, automated steering systems, sensors and remote sensing, variable rate technology, and integrated electronic communication systems are applied to precision farming. These technologies enable farmers to use crop inputs such as pesticides, fertilizers, and irrigation water effectively based on soil, crop, and weather requirements to enhance crop yield while reducing environment pollution.
由于需要增加作物生产以及提高环保,全世界越来越多地采用精密农业。由于人口增加而增加对粮食作物的需求加上监测农作物生产高质量作物的作物健康的需求,主要推动市场增长。推动该市场增长的其他因素包括全球农业产业的增长,土地利用局限性和耕地下降。诸如大数据分析和远程信息处理等技术的整合以及各国政府的支持和补贴进一步补充了该市场的增长。然而,高初始投资限制了精密农业市场的增长。此外,意识低,缺乏标准化妨碍了精密农业市场的增长。
The global precision farming market is segmented on the basis of hardware, services, deployment, application and region. Based on the type of hardware, the market is further segmented into automation & control system, sensing devices, and access points. The application segment is categorized into irrigation management, crop scouting, yield monitoring, weather tracking and forecasting, field mapping, inventory management, and farm labor management. This report comprises a detailed geographic distribution of the market across North America, Europe, APAC and South America, and MEA. North America is further segmented into U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Europe is divided into Germany, UK, Italy, France, and Russia. Asia-Pacific is bifurcated into China, India, Japan, and Australia. North America accounts for the largest share in the global precision farming market owing to high labor costs, presence of large scale farmlands, and growing need to improve agricultural productivity.
精密农业市场的供应商提供广泛的产品和服务,以帮助消费者提高作物质量并最大限度地提高利润。此外,市场的服务提供商正在获得市场上的顶级公司,以增强市场的产品,扩大客户群。例如,2017年7月,AGCO公司宣布收购精密种植LLC设备业务。此次收购将加强AGCO Corporation在全球市场的地位,并扩大其植物技术组合。2015年11月,AG领导技术介绍了Incommand Display和Agfiniti移动应用程序。InCommand显示通过改进行逐行映射和拆分屏幕视图来增强实时决策。当与Agfiniti Mobile配对时,Incommand提供增强的移动性,从而实现了高效的决策。几家中小型企业还提供了使用无人机和成像技术传感器的精密农业解决方案。这些企业提供的解决方案旨在提高资源利用率和最大化作物生产。Grineense是一家位于芬兰的公司,介绍了一种手持式谷物质量分析仪,该分析仪能够测量小麦,黑麦,大麦和燕麦等小谷物中蛋白质和水分含量的能力。 The analyzer takes readings before the harvest and produces results in around 30 seconds, which is also delivered to a connected mobile app. This will enable the farmers to make effective decisions in a short span of time. Other leading players in the market include AgJunction, Inc, Agribotix LLC, Deere and Company, The Climate Corporation, Topcon Corporation, and Trimble, Inc. among others.
