According to the report published by Market Research Store, global demand for the agricultural robots market was estimated at approximately USD 3,500 Million in 2019 and is anticipated to generate revenue of around USD 22,000 Million by end of 2026, growing at a CAGR of around 30% between 2020 and 2026.
Global Agricultural Robots Market: Overview
Agricultural robots, also known as AgriBots have majorly helped in the transformation of agricultural practices in this modern world of digitalization and automation. This constant evolution of technology has helped the farmers in improvising their productivity, thus increasing their income, These robots majorly help the farmers in their tasks such as harvesting, monitoring the environment changes, weed control, soil analysis, and many other purposes. The utilization of drones in farming activities has helped the farmers in saving time and labor costs. These drones equipped with hi-tech cameras and sensors help in monitoring crop growth, predict yields, and other farm management services.
Global Agricultural Robots Market: Growth Factors
The rapid implementation of indoor farming methods, fueled by dramatic changes in climatic conditions and the growing need to track crops, would open up enormous market growth opportunities. Governments' heavy focus on promoting the implementation of automation in any industry encourages producers to develop new products. During the forecast period, the prevalence of IoT in the agriculture sector, accompanied by a substantial increase in labor salaries, is further energizing demand development. Also, the rising wages of the laborers along with the rising number of untrained laborers have driven the farmers to use cost-efficient methods for increasing their crop productivity, which in turn stimulates the market growth. However, the lack of awareness among the farmers in developing countries about agricultural robots along with the high costs of these products hinders the market growth in coming years. However, the usage of real-time multimodal systems for planning and execution along with the rising utilization of electrification technology in agricultural robots provide lucrative opportunities to the market in the coming years.
