Global Cotton Harvester Market - 2023-2030

Global Cotton Harvester Market - 2023-2030

Market Overview

Cotton Harvester Market was valued at USD XX million in 2022. It is forecasted to reach USD XX million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.87% during the forecast period (2023-2030).

Cotton harvesters are basically the machine that is used to harvest cotton balls. The cotton harvesters are used as it requires critical crop management decisions including scheduling defoliation, defoliating effectively and timing harvest to get the best lint quality and yield. In addition, the cotton harvesting machines provide the best cut of cotton bush and introduce them into cotton picking device, where cotton separates from bushes as it is equipped with stalk crowders. Then the cotton moves to bunker with the help of airflow.

Furthermore, the cotton harvesters are tractor mounted self-propelled machines that are capable of gathering mature cotton with a minimum of waste and without causing serious damage to the fiber plant and unopened bolls. In addition, to this, the cotton harvesters provide weather protection to maintain the quality of the fiber. The growth of cotton industry and the increased imports and exports of cotton has resulted in the growth of market.

Market DynamicsIncrease in production of cotton drives the market growth

Cotton is used in various industries which increases its demand worldwide and ultimately increases the cotton production. In addition, majority of produced cotton is utilized by the textile industry to produce cotton fiber as it is a breathable fabric and is absorbent. Additionally, the growth in income level, growth in raw material production, and automation of the manufacturing industry are the major factors expected to influence the global cotton production. The turnaround in cotton production has increased globally owing to the significant achievements have been made in increasing yield and production.

Furthermore, the developments of high yielding varieties through, appropriate transfer of technology, better farm management practices, and increased area under cultivation of cotton hybrids drives the production of cotton globally which ultimately adds to the growth of cotton harvester market. For instance, according to FAO Agricultural Outlook, world cotton production is projected to grow 1.5% p.a. to reach 28 Mt by 2030.

Moreover, better genetics and the adoption of better agronomic practices for sustainable cotton production are the major factors propelling the growth of the cotton harvesters. For instance, according to the World cotton production data 27 million tons of cotton are produced every year. U.S accounted for 4.1 million tons of cotton; Brazil accounted for 1.9 million tons. The cotton plants flow through the machine (cotton harvesters) and permit the spindles to engage the cotton better than large plants with many long limbs. These factors are increasing the requirement for the cotton harvesters thereby impacting the market growth positively.

Market Segmentation: Cotton stripper segment accounted for the highest share in global cotton harvester market

In 2021, cotton stripper segment dominated the market, accounting for YY% of global sales. Cotton strippers are basically designed to pull the entire boll, whether ripe or still growing. The entire stalk is taken along with the bolls and then another machine works to remove the burr and any unwanted vegetation, which is the cotton material. There various benefits associated with cotton strippers are that it is modern cotton harvesting equipment that makes the harvest time a lot simpler. In addition to this cotton strippers require a lower initial investment and maintenance cost.

Furthermore, the increase in cotton production has increased the sales of this product. For instance, according to fibre2fashion, the global cotton production is expected to reach 118.50 million bales in MY 2020/21. Various technological innovations in smart textiles in the manufacturing sector, government support for the textile industry in emerging economics is expected to encourage the demand for cotton influencing the requirement for the cotton strippers.

Moreover, modern strippers are equipped with extractor units, which separate some of the burrs and foreign matter from the lint which ultimately increased the sales of the product. All these factors influenced the growth of the market.

Geographical Penetration: APAC is dominating region during the forecast period

In 2021, Asia-Pacific segment dominated the market, accounting for YY% of global sales. APAC is projected to be the dominating region due to the owing to the increased consumption, production of cotton. For instance, China and India are the highest cotton-producing countries in the region and account for more than 70% of the region's produce. The growth of the Chinese and Indian textile industry has become a dominant factor in influencing the world cotton and textile markets. For instance, in 2020, according to world cotton production India is one of the largest producers of cotton of about 22% of the world cotton production.

Moreover, the domestic textile industry is one of the largest industries in the country and has witnessed a phenomenal growth in terms of installed spindlage and yarn production. In 2002, according to Cotcorp.org, India has largest area under cotton cultivation which is about 37% of the world area under cotton cultivation between 12.0 million hectares to 13.5 million hectares in 2020. For instance, in 2029, according to FAO, Australia’s cotton industry is one of the most water-efficient cotton industries and the country produced 889.5 thousand metric ton of cottonseed., which increased to 1414.0 thousand metric ton in 2020. All these factors have boosted the market growth in Asia-Pacific region.

Competitive Landscape

There are several established participants in the industry and local manufacturers; hence, the market is fragmented. Some major key players are CNH Industrial NV, Deer & Co., Barnhardt Manufacturing Co, Changzhou Dongfeng Agricultural Machinery Group Co. Ltd, Delkin Devices Inc., Erisha Agritech, Exact Corp, Gomselmash, Hubei Fotma Machinery Co. Ltd among others. The manufacturers are focusing on bringing the most efficient cotton harvesting machines for increasing the yield and productivity. Due to this there are several product launches in the market.

For instance,
• In February 2021, John Deer introduced two cotton harvesters namely “CP770 cotton picker” and “CS770 cotton stripper”. These feature greater productivity, a large cab packed with its best technologies, and powered by Deere's highly efficient 13.6-liter engines which are proven to be the most efficient.

COVID-19 ImpactNegative impact on the global cotton harvester market

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the economies of various countries due to lockdowns, business close, and travel bans. Agriculture, textile are among the major industries suffered from intense disruptions such as restrictions on the supply chain and the shutdown of warehouse plants. The outbreak of covid-19 has severely impacted the overall supply chain of the cotton harvester sales. The halt in production and end use sector operations have also affected the cotton harvester’s sales negatively. The pandemic has affected the overall growth of the industry in 2020 and also at the start of 2021 due to the sudden outbreak of the covid-19 pandemic had led to the implementation of stringent lockdown regulations across several nations resulting in disruptions in import and export activities of cotton harvester’s sales.

In addition, the huge slowdown in demand for cotton harvester as China being the global cotton producing hub has been impacted majorly with covid-19. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 750 personal protection kits were acquired urgently to prevent the spread of the new corona virus. This spread stopped the production and cultivation of cotton which affected cotton harvester market. Although, laborers were hired most of the producers lack machinery, the harvest is done manually. In many countries for preventing the spread of the virus cotton harvesting processes were delayed for the protection of rural workers. This impacted the market negatively.
