Agriculture Sprayers Global Market Report 2024

Agricultural sprayers play a crucial role in farm machinery, specifically designed to spray liquid nutrients and insecticides onto plants throughout the crop growing cycle. These sprayers are essential for applying water and chemical solutions containing acids or caustic materials to control pests or enhance crop performance.

The main types of agricultural sprayers include handheld, self-propelled, low HP (horsepower), medium HP, high HP, tractor-mounted, trailed, and aerial sprayers. Handheld sprayers are specifically used for spraying pesticides, acids, oil, sealers, and diesel. Various types of nozzles, such as hydraulic, gaseous, centrifugal, and thermal nozzles, are employed, each with different capacities, including ultra-low volume, low volume, and high volume. These sprayers operate using different power sources, including fuel-based, electric and battery-driven, solar, and manual. They find application in field sprayers, orchard sprayers, and gardening sprayers.

This agriculture sprayers market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The agriculture sprayers market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.65 billion in 2023 to $2.88 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to various factors, including the increase in the global population, government subsidies and support for agriculture, the expansion of the agriculture industry, a heightened focus on organic farming practices, and overall economic growth. These combined influences have played a significant role in shaping the positive trajectory witnessed during that time.

The agriculture sprayers market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.99 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the growing demand for food, increasing awareness about the importance of crop protection, the rise of e-commerce platforms in the agricultural sector, and an increase in disposable income. Key trends expected during this period encompass the development of smart and autonomous sprayers, a focus on organic and sustainable spraying practices, the use of drones for spraying applications, integration of IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, and the adoption of multi-function sprayers within the agricultural sprayer industry. These trends reflect the industry's response to technological advancements, sustainability considerations, and evolving consumer preferences in agriculture.

The agriculture sprayers market is expected to experience substantial growth driven by an increasing emphasis on farm efficiency and productivity. Farm efficiency, measured by comparing a farm's crop yield against the regional average, and productivity, calculated by the ratio of agricultural outputs to inputs, are both integral to this growth. Agriculture sprayers play a pivotal role in enhancing these aspects by reducing costs, improving spray efficiency, ensuring safety, and minimizing harm to crops and the environment. Notably, statistics from the Indian Ministry of Finance reflect a rising share of the agriculture sector in the economy's Gross Value Added (GVA), which reached 20.2% in 2020–21, affirming the trajectory of the agriculture sprayers market.

The anticipated growth in the agriculture sprayer market is closely tied to the burgeoning global population. The role of agriculture sprayers in bolstering agricultural productivity by providing the right amount of inputs at the right time is crucial in meeting the demands of an expanding population. Projections from the United Nations indicate a significant increase, with an estimated global population of around 8.5 billion by 2030 and 9.7 billion by 2050. This surge in population underscores the vital role agriculture sprayers will play in sustaining food production to meet the needs of a growing populace.

A notable trend influencing the agriculture sprayers market is the increased adoption of innovative agricultural equipment. Market-leading companies are actively developing and introducing advanced agricultural machinery to fortify their market positions. For instance, a US-based agricultural machinery manufacturer, GUSS Automation, unveiled an autonomous orchard sprayer in March 2021. This groundbreaking technology integrates LiDAR, GPS, and cutting-edge advancements to autonomously navigate orchards, delivering precise and efficient spraying while prioritizing crew safety. This innovation marks a significant stride in the evolution of agricultural equipment, signaling the market's trajectory towards advanced, technology-driven solutions.

Leading enterprises within the agriculture sprayers market are actively engaged in developing cutting-edge solutions, such as the See and Spray Ultimate technology. This pioneering system employs artificial intelligence to distinguish between crops and weeds, functioning at speeds of up to 12 mph. It offers versatility for traditional broadcast applications, as well as combined targeted and traditional spray functionalities. Notably, this system is solely available as a factory-installed feature and is not offered as a Precision Upgrade. A prime example is the recent unveiling by John Deere in March 2022, a prominent US-based manufacturer of agricultural machinery. Their latest spraying technology represents a significant advancement, allowing for the precise treatment of non-residual herbicides on weeds. This innovation empowers farmers to curtail non-residual herbicide usage by more than two-thirds during the season, maintaining a comparable hit rate to traditional spraying. The consequential reduction in herbicide usage significantly cuts input costs and minimizes refill frequency, enabling coverage of more hectares per day.

In a strategic move in February 2022, EXEL Industries, a France-based company specializing in farm machinery and equipment, completed the acquisition of GF Garden for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition, in conjunction with robust organic growth within the Garden division, amplifies EXEL Industries' presence in a thriving market. Notably, this move leverages significant distribution synergies between HOZELOCK, GF Garden, and the broader market landscape. GF Garden, an established manufacturer of garden equipment with a portfolio inclusive of agricultural sprayers, becomes a valuable addition to EXEL Industries' strategic expansion efforts.
