Water Supply & Irrigation Systems Global Market Report 2024

The water supply & irrigation systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $348.96 billion in 2023 to $373.09 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to population growth, agricultural expansion, industrial development, urbanization, and climate variability.

The water supply & irrigation systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $484.71 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The expected growth in the forecast period is due to challenges related to water scarcity, population growth, and urbanization, as well as government regulations promoting sustainable water management. Additionally, the integration of renewable energy sources and increased investments in water infrastructure are contributing to this growth, along with a heightened focus on water conservation efforts. Major trends anticipated during this period include technological advancements in water management, innovations in drip irrigation methods, the adoption of smart irrigation systems, the use of remote sensing for crop monitoring, and the development of climate-responsive irrigation practices.

The expansion of organic farming is projected to drive the growth of the water supply and irrigation systems market in the future. Organic farming utilizes environmentally friendly methods for managing weeds, pests, and diseases. Irrigation systems are essential in organic farming as they distribute water to the roots of crops, with water being released from multiple sprinklers mounted on mobile towers in center-pivot systems. Consequently, the rise in organic farming is expected to boost the demand for water supply and irrigation systems. For instance, in May 2023, the UK's Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs reported that the UK had a total organic farmland area of 509 thousand hectares in 2022 (including fully converted and conversion area), marking a 0.4% increase from 2021. This indicates that the expansion of organic farming is a key driver of the water supply and irrigation systems market.

Rising water consumption is indeed a key driver for the growth of the water supply and irrigation systems market. As water consumption increases, there is a greater demand for effective water supply and irrigation systems to meet the needs of various sectors, including households, industries, and agriculture. The data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, indicating a marginal increase in national water consumption for industries and households, as well as a notable rise in water usage in the agriculture, forestry, and fishing sectors, underscores the importance of robust water supply and irrigation systems. This trend highlights the necessity for efficient water management practices and the implementation of advanced technologies to optimize water usage and ensure sustainable water resources for future generations.

An escalating trend within the water supply and irrigation systems market is centered around product innovation. Companies in this sector are prioritizing the development of innovative products to strengthen their market positions. For instance, in April 2022, Viridix, an Israel-based manufacturer specializing in precision irrigation systems and innovative agri-tech platforms, introduced the Viridix Gen3 Auto-Pilot system. This system represents an advanced precision irrigation solution with distinctive features, incorporating sensors for water pressure, air humidity, and temperature, along with remote watering controllers. The platform stands out for its advanced capabilities and user-friendly interface, offering exceptional efficiency through a comprehensive autonomous solution tailored for optimized precision irrigation practices. This innovation signifies a significant stride in advancing irrigation systems to meet evolving industry needs.

Key players within the water supply and irrigation systems market are directing their focus toward cutting-edge solutions such as anti-clogging technology to meet evolving demands and elevate system efficiency. Anti-clogging technology encompasses features or mechanisms specifically designed to prevent blockages and ensure unhindered operation in various systems, notably in irrigation setups. For instance, in October 2023, Netafim India, a company based in India known for providing irrigation services and solutions, introduced Toofan, an innovative drip irrigation system integrated with anti-clogging technology. This system is engineered to guarantee the efficient delivery of water and nutrients to crops. Designed to resist clogging issues commonly encountered in traditional systems, the Toofan drip line boasts being 40% more durable and 20% more cost-effective compared to conventional alternatives. This advancement presents a promising solution for agricultural irrigation, and the company has set ambitious goals to revolutionize sustainable farming, aiming to cover 25,000 hectares of land and reach 35,000 farmers across India by 2025.

In March 2022, Orchard & Vineyard Supply, a US-based provider of solutions for commercial orchards and vineyards, finalized the acquisition of Clearwater Irrigation Supply for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition positions Orchard & Vineyard Supply to offer a broader array of options and capabilities to farmers and producers in the Pacific Northwest. Clearwater Irrigation Supply, also based in the US, is a comprehensive agricultural irrigation company with expertise in designing, installing, and maintaining drip irrigation supplies, sprinklers, PVC pipe, and fittings.
