Precision Farming Market Size, Share, Growth Analysis, By Component(Hardware, Software and Service), By Technology(Guidance Technology, Remote Sensing Technology and Variable-Rate Technology), By Application(Yield Monitoring, Field Mapping Telematics, Crop Scouting, Weather Tracking & Forecasting), By Region - Industry Forecast 2024-2031

Precision Farming Market size was valued at USD 8.85 Billion in 2022 poised to grow from USD 9.80 Billion in 2023 to USD 22.09 Billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 10.7% in the forecast period (2024-2031). 

At this moment, there is a specific methodology for the management of farms and agriculture that relies on the utilization of Information Technology to guarantee an optimization of productivity and health through what soil and crops really need. The three main aims of precision agriculture are: ensuring sustainability; environmental protection; and profit maximization. This area is sometimes referred to as site-specific crop management (SSCM), just in time farming, satellite agriculture among other names. IT services, software, and specialized equipment are necessary for precision agriculture. The model also includes real-time information on crops, soil and air conditions and other relevant parameters such as labor costs, machinery availability and hyper-local weather forecasts. 

With the use of predictive analytics software, farmers can receive recommendations regarding crop rotation, the best times to plant and harvest, and how to maintain their land. In fields, sensors take readings on the temperature, moisture content, and air quality. Real-time photos of individual plants are made available to farmers by robotic drones and satellites. Images can provide information that can be processed and combined with sensor and other data to provide direction for both immediate and long-term decisions. Examples of these decisions include knowing exactly which fields to irrigate and when or where to grow a specific crop.
