Irrigation Automation Market

Global Irrigation Automation Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Irrigation Type (Sprinkler irrigation, Drip irrigation, and Surface irrigation), by Component (Controllers, Sensors, Valves, Sprinklers, and Others), and by End-User (Agricultural and Non-agricultural), Forecast (2021-2027)

Published: Jan 2022 | Report Code: OMR2025627 | Category : Next Generation Technologies | Delivery Format: /

The global irrigation automation market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 19.5% during the forecast period. The automation of existing irrigation process makes the complete agricultural activities more efficient and supports the farmers to conserve water and energy. Growing initiatives are being taken by governments globally for the installation of irrigation automation systems owing to the increasing scarcity of water. These government initiatives to promote water conservation by adoption of the irrigation automation as per its water-saving property will drive the market growth for irrigation automation market. According to the studies released by International Water Management Institute (IWMI), in 2020, the study indicates that one-third of the world population would face absolute water scarcity by the year 2025.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Irrigation Automation Market

The manufacturing of automated irrigation systems was adversely impacted due to temporary shutdown of manufacturing facilities during COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, fiscal restriction, lacking labor availability, and supply chain disruption caused by travel limitations are other factors negatively limited the irrigation automation market globally. However, the market is expected to cater “V” shaped recovery by December 2022, as several emerging economies including Sweden, India, ad others have started investing in the development and integration of smart and latest technologies within the irrigation field. For instance, in November 2021, as per the European Investment Bank, Sweden witnessed rapid surge in establishment of smart irrigation-based start-ups across the country. For example, Swedish start-up named IRRIOT (Irrigation Internet of Things) that has set out to change the way farmers water their fields.

Segmental Outlook 

The global irrigation automation market is segmented based on the irrigation type, component, and end-user. Based on the irrigation type, the market is segmented into sprinkler irrigation, drip irrigation, and surface irrigation. Based on the component, the market is sub-segmented into the controllers, sensors, valves, sprinklers, and others which comprises of real-time feedback and control systems. Based on the end user the market is segmented on the basis of agricultural and non-agricultural. The above mentioned segments can be customized as per the requirements. Among these, the agricultural end-user segment is expected to hold considerable share of the irrigation automation market over the forecast period, owing to the several benefits such as real-time data store and control offered with the integration of irrigation automation components and systems across the agricultural sector.

The Drip Irrigation Anticipated to Hold the Significant Share in the Global Irrigation Automation Market

Based on the irrigation type, the drip irrigation segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment in the irrigation automation market owing to the system’s durability and a higher efficiency rate as the life span for drip irrigation systems is around ten years. Also, factors such as less water wastage and consumption ability and lower cost of drip systems makes it the most adopted type of irrigation system in different countries. For instance, in 2021, The Consulate General of Israel to South India in collaboration with United Planters’ Association of Southern India (UPASI), Jain Irrigation Systems and NaanDanJain Irrigation (Israel) launched a smart IoT irrigation project in tea plantation in Ooty, Tamil Nadu. The system is designed and implemented by Jain irrigation, involves a combination of drip technology, automation, and fertigation, and helps to empower farmers to produce higher yields of better-quality crops with fewer resources.

Regional Outlooks

The global irrigation automation market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East &Africa, and Latin America).  The market can be analyzed for region or country level as per the requirement.

Global Irrigation Automation Market Growth, by Region

The Asia-Pacific Region is Projected to Cater Prominent Share in the Global Irrigation Automation Market

Among the regions, the Asia Pacific region anticipated to hold comparatively large share of the market during the forecast period. As the majority of the counties of the Asia Pacific region are primarily dependent on agriculture, the incidence of agricultural lands, rapid change in the climatic conditions, increasing water scarcity and support from the government for reducing wastage of water is boosting the Irrigation Automation Market in Asia. The market is further growing due to occurrence of major key players in India. For instance, in 2021, Netafim India launched Flexi Sprinkler Kit. Flexi Sprinkler Kit is field crops sprinkler irrigation system, and it is suitable for vegetables and open field crops. The company aims to cover 15,000 hectares of land and reach 15,000 farmers across India by 2022 with the launch of the Flexi Sprinkler Kit. 

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global irrigation automation market include Avanijal Agri Automation Pvt. Ltd., Irritec S.p.A., Nelson Irrigation Corp., NOVEDADES AGRÍCOLAS, S.A., Valmont Industries, Inc., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in 2019, Nutrien Ag Solutions announced a partnership with Lindsay Corp. The partnership will allow Nutrien Ag Solutions crop consultants to leverage Lindsay’s remote irrigation management and scheduling platform to supplement Nutrien Ag Solutions’ offerings.
