Dublin, Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "M2M/IoT Applications in the Agricultural Industry - 3rd Edition" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
IoT Applications in the Agricultural Industry analyses the latest developments on the global smart farming market covering precision farming, agricultural drones, in-field monitoring, herd management and farm management software.
The market for in-field sensor systems can be divided into three segments: environmental monitoring, pest monitoring and water management. These solutions typically incorporate wireless connectivity, data logging, cameras and sensors that record measurements of environmental parameters. Semios is the largest vendor in the space by far with an estimated installed base of 750,000 sensor nodes, followed by Pessl Instruments and Davis instruments with installed bases of around 80,000 and 50,000 devices respectively. Top specialised providers of integrated soil moisture monitoring solutions comprise Hortau, AquaSpy and CropX. Remote irrigation control solutions are offered by the largest OEMs of central pivot and drip irrigation systems including Valmont Industries with its Valley Irrigation brand, Lindsay Corporation with its Zimmatic brand and Netafim.
Precision livestock farming technologies are mainly applied to the husbandry of dairy cattle, poultry and pigs. Consolidation and growth of dairy farms have resulted in larger herds per farmer, which makes manual observations challenging. Body-mounted sensor systems together with herd management software are used to achieve satisfactory herd health and timely insemination when a cow is in oestrous. A majority of the leading dairy equipment OEMs including GEA Group, Lely and BouMatic partner with specialised companies to provide advanced sensor technology for herd management. The world's largest dairy equipment manufacturer DeLaval offers its in-house developed activity monitoring system along with its milking and dairy farming infrastructure solutions. Other significant providers of precision livestock farming technologies include Afimilk, Datamars, Nedap and Merck.
The report's outlook for the smart farming solution market is positive as agricultural production remains greatly underpenetrated by IoT technologies. The number of installed wireless devices for applications in agricultural production is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1 percent from 25.2 million connections at the end of 2022 to 37.1 million connected devices by 2027. Cellular connections amounted to 1.7 million at the end of 2022 and are expected to reach 3.9 million in 2027.
The main application areas for cellular communications comprise telematics and in-field sensor systems. LPWA technologies are expected to achieve the highest growth rate and realise a significant market position in the remote monitoring and control segment. 802.15.4-based standards comprise the most employed wireless technology due to its wide adoption in dairy cow monitoring applications.
