Precision Irrigation Global Market Report 2024

The precision irrigation market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $8.11 billion in 2023 to $9.23 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.94%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to escalating concerns regarding water scarcity and drought conditions, the impact of climate change, the growing adoption of IoT and AI technologies in agriculture, the expansion of farm sizes, and the upward trend in labor costs.

The precision irrigation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.4 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.7%. The forecasted growth in the upcoming period can be linked to the imperative need for climate change adaptation, the increasing demand for sustainable agricultural solutions, the wider adoption of smart agriculture practices, and the growing acknowledgment of the interdependency between water and agriculture. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period involve deeper integration with digital farming platforms, the development of advanced water management solutions, incorporation into climate-smart agriculture practices, optimization of the water-energy nexus, and the utilization of IoT and sensor technologies.

The escalating demand for agricultural products is anticipated to drive growth in the precision irrigation market. Agricultural products, which encompass goods or commodities cultivated through farming practices, are witnessing increased demand due to various factors such as population growth, dietary shifts, biofuel production, urbanization, and concerns regarding food security. Precision irrigation technology plays a pivotal role in the agricultural sector by delivering water to crops with precision and efficiency, thereby optimizing water usage, minimizing water wastage, and enhancing crop yields. For example, reports published by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in January 2023 highlighted a significant increase of 34.1% in Canada's total field crop production compared to 2021, with wheat production (excluding durum) experiencing a notable 47% surge, reaching 28.4 million metric tons in the 2022-23 period. This underscores the critical role of precision irrigation in meeting the growing demands of the agriculture sector.

Key players in the precision irrigation market are focusing on developing innovative filtration systems tailored for irrigation purposes, such as AlphaDisc filters, to enhance the protection of irrigation systems against clogging caused by organic contaminants. AlphaDisc filtration systems utilize advanced technology and designs to efficiently remove impurities and particles from fluids. For instance, Netafim launched its AlphaDisc filter in February 2022, featuring high efficiency, precise depth filtration, and a hyper-modular design for easy scalability. This innovative filter addresses challenges posed by deteriorating water quality, pollution, and climate change, thereby improving growing conditions, reducing the risk of clogging, and ultimately increasing crop yields.

Precision irrigation revolutionizes agricultural practices by delivering water and nutrients precisely to plants, enhancing efficiency and sustainability. This method employs advanced technologies to optimize water usage, minimize waste, and improve crop yield and quality, aiding farmers in boosting productivity while conserving water resources.

Two primary types of precision irrigation are sprinkler and drip irrigation. Sprinkler irrigation disperses water through a network of pipes, pumps, and sprinkler heads, providing solutions and services for various end-users including agriculture, residential areas, turf and sports fields, golf courses, parks, and landscapes.
