Global Agriculture Drones Market by Offering (Hardware, Software), Payload (Less than 10 kg, 10 kg to 30 kg, More than 30 kg), Application (Precision Agriculture, Livestock Monitoring, Precision Fish Farming), and Geography-Forecast to 2031.
The research report titled, 'Global Agriculture Drones Market by Offering (Hardware, Software), Payload (Less than 10 kg, 10 kg to 30 kg, More than 30 kg), Application (Precision Agriculture, Livestock Monitoring, Precision Fish Farming), and Geography-Forecast to 2031, provides an in-depth analysis of the agriculture drones market across five major geographies and emphasizes on the current market trends, market sizes, market shares, recent developments, and forecasts till 2031. The agriculture drones market is projected to reach $16.1 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 12.8% from 2024 to 2031.
The growth of this market is attributed to the rising adoption of drones for smart farming in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, growth in venture funding for the development of agriculture drones, and integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in agriculture. However, the technical limitations of drones restrain the market's growth.
The growing global population's impact on food supply and government initiatives promoting agricultural automation are poised to create significant opportunities for this market. However, the high initial and maintenance costs of drones and a lack of technical expertise among farmers are some of the challenges impacting the market's growth.
The global agriculture drone market is segmented based on offering (hardware and software), payload (into less than 10 kg, 10 kg to 30 kg, and more than 30 kg), application (precision agriculture, livestock monitoring, precision fish farming, and other applications), and geography. The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyses the regional and country-level markets.
Based on offering, the global agriculture drones market is segmented into hardware and software. In 2024, the hardware segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global agriculture drones market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the need to monitor crop and soil health, the increasing adoption of precision farming, and the use of drones for assessing various parameters in agriculture.
However, the software segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's growth is driven by advancements in drone software technology, which enables better data analysis in agriculture and enhanced capabilities for data and image processing in agricultural surveys.
Based on payload, the global agriculture drones market is segmented into less than 10 kg, 10 kg to 30 kg, and more than 30 kg. In 2024, less than 10 kg is expected to account for the largest share of the global agriculture drones market. Smaller drones are preferred due to their greater flight range compared to heavier drones. These smaller drones are widely used for field mapping, crop scouting, and monitoring crop health in agriculture. These factors contribute to the large market share of this segment.
Based on application, the global agriculture drones market is segmented into precision agriculture, livestock monitoring, precision fish farming, and other applications. In 2024, the precision agriculture segment is expected to account for the largest share of the agriculture drones market. This segment's large market share can be attributed to government initiatives aimed at promoting precision farming practices and the increasing utilization of data to enhance agricultural productivity and revenue. Moreover, the precision agriculture segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on geography, the global agriculture drones market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the agriculture drones market. North America's major market share can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-quality crops, rising labor costs, widespread adoption of automation and advanced agricultural technologies, and supportive government initiatives promoting precision farming practices.
