Top 6 Companies in the Agricultural Robots Market

The global Agricultural Robot market was valued at USD 3.63 Billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 15.93 Billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 20.31% from 2021 to 2028.

The agriculture industry has changed drastically in the last few decades and has come a long way from traditional farming methods to smart agriculture. It is one of the fastest growing sectors worldwide and requires a lot of work in the planting, harvesting and management of agricultural products. With the rapidly growing population around the world, the demand for organic and high-quality food and food products is increasing. Traditionally, farming has required a lot of repetition and hard work, and has produced comparatively low yields due to the low speed of seeding, irrigation, monitoring, fertilization and harvesting in large agricultural areas. Today, a single agricultural robot is capable of performing tasks such as seeding, spraying, weed control, chemical applications, phenotyping, sorting, harvesting and tilling.

Agricultural robots are special automated vehicles used in modern farming and farming practices to reduce the burden on farmers. Based on the role in the field, agricultural robots are broadly classified into crop harvesting robots, weeding robots and aerial imagery drones and seed planting drones. These robots reduce the manual work of the farmers and help in increasing the production in less time. One of the major advantages of robots is their ability and flexibility to perform a variety of tasks in any environmental conditions. Agricultural robots help in accurate analysis of livestock and crop as well as optimum consumption of water resources and land to increase agricultural yield.

In 2020, the rapid spread of COVID-19 significantly affected global business operations, disrupting supply chains and impacting various industries. The nationwide lockdown, international border seals and strict social distancing measures have led to a sharp drop in global business activity. This had a huge impact on the global economy, as companies around the world were forced to either completely or partially shut down their operations, causing disruption in the supply-demand ratio. Moreover, 2021 saw a second wave of COVID-19 in several key markets such as the US, India and Brazil which further disrupted the market. However, it is expected that with the reopening of business activities, there will be a steady increase in demand in the market in the coming years. The impact of COVID-19 on market demand is considered while estimating the current and forecast market size and growth trends for all regions and countries.
