Harvesting Equipment Market - A Global and Regional Analysis: Focus on Harvesting Equipment Product and Application, Supply Chain Analysis, and Country Analysis - Analysis and Forecast, 2022-2027
Global Harvesting Equipment Market Industry Overview
The harvesting equipment market is expected to grow from $22.42 billion in the year 2021 to $30.11 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 5.08% from 2022 to 2027. The growth in the global harvesting equipment market is expected to be driven by increasing demand for harvesting equipment in precision farming and the growing need to limit grain and cereals waste.
Market Lifecycle Stage
The harvesting equipment market is in the development phase. Increased research and development activities are underway to develop harvesting robots and electrification harvesting equipment, which is expected to increase the demand for harvesting equipment in farming practices.
Increasing investments in the R&D of harvesting equipment is one of the major opportunities in the global harvesting equipment market. Moreover, the functions of harvesting equipment such as harvesting, threshing, separating, cleaning, and collecting grain while moving through the standing crops are attracting farmers, animal feed producers, and the dairy industry.
Impact
- An increasing mechanized farming and acute labor shortage create the market opportunity for harvesting equipment manufacturers. As harvesting equipment saves the cost and time in farming practices and enhances the grain quality, the farmers are adopting harvesting equipment in their farming practices. Also, North America and Europe are adopting the agriculture 4.0 revolution trend and increasing precision farming practices. This creates better opportunities in North America and Europe markets.
- Additionally, harvesting equipment is used in various end-use industries, including animal feed and dairy. The growing demand for meat and dairy products will furthermore drive the harvesting equipment market during the forecast period 2022-2027.
Impact of COVID-19COVID-19 pandemic directly impacted the manufacturing and transportation activities of the harvesting equipment market. Due to the pandemic, the supply chain of the harvesting equipment market was disturbed at the global level. Various governments closed their international trades and production units. Due to this, the harvesting equipment market were hampered more at the global level. In mid-2021, manufacturing and transportation activities of the harvesting equipment started gradually, and international trades started efficiently. Therefore, the production and consumption of harvesting equipment products are expected to increase post-COVID-19 pandemic.
