Agriculture Global Market Report 2024

The agriculture market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $13272.75 billion in 2023 to $14356.23 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as population growth, the globalization of trade, government policies, the use of crop protection products, and the influence of climate and weather patterns. Additionally, initiatives such as rural development programs have played a significant role in fostering growth in the agriculture sector.

The agriculture market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19286.79 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the adoption of growing sustainable agriculture practices, advancements in genetic engineering in crops, the emphasis on organic farming, the rise of vertical farming, and the implementation of water management solutions to address global food security concerns. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass the integration of precision agriculture technologies, the use of artificial intelligence in farming, the emergence of digital marketplaces for agricultural products, the utilization of autonomous farming equipment, and the adoption of farm management software.

The global population is on the rise and is projected to reach 10 billion by 2050, creating an increased demand for food. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) predict a 13% growth in global cereal production by 2027 to meet the needs of the expanding population. This necessitates an augmentation of crop production, farming activities, and trade volumes. Agribusiness companies are anticipated to acquire more arable land to boost crop production and expand their activities to meet the growing demand, fostering overall growth in the agriculture sector.

The agriculture market is expected to experience growth due to shifting consumer preferences toward healthier and diverse diets. Healthier and diverse diets, characterized by nutrient-rich foods and a variety of choices, are gaining popularity. Diversification in agriculture has the potential to enhance the nutrient adequacy of diets, benefiting smallholder farming households. This shift in consumer preferences is driving increased demand for a broader range of crops, leading to market expansion. As per the 2022 Food and Health Survey by the International Food Information Council, 54% of Americans made changes to their diet to prioritize health, indicating a significant trend toward healthier eating habits.

The outbreak of COVID-19 had a substantial impact on the agriculture market in 2020, disrupting supply chains due to trade restrictions and reducing consumption as a result of global lockdowns. Lockdowns hindered farmers in harvesting and marketing their produce, while cross-border trade restrictions led to a decline in the export of agricultural products. Despite the challenges faced, the agriculture market is expected to recover from the effects of the pandemic over the forecast period, as the situation is considered a black swan event unrelated to fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

Major players in the agriculture market are investing in technology, such as agriculture drones, to gather precise data on crop health, soil conditions, and pest infestations. Agriculture drones, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) used in agriculture, aim to improve crop yields, reduce costs, and enhance efficiency. For example, XAG, a China-based drone service provider, launched the XAG P100 Pro in July 2023. This advanced drone, equipped with a large payload of 50 kilograms, operates autonomously and assists farmers in tasks such as seeding, crop spraying, and fertilization.

Companies in the agriculture market are also focusing on digital farming platforms such as Climate FieldView to empower farmers with data-driven insights. Climate FieldView, a digital agriculture ecosystem, enables farmers to analyze yield performance and assess applied products transparently. In March 2021, The Climate Corporation, Bayer's digital farming arm, introduced Climate FieldView in South Africa. The platform allows farmers to analyze detailed farm data, offering compatibility across various equipment types and connectivity to multiple farm management software systems, facilitating informed decision-making and operational improvement.
