Drip Irrigation Systems Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Crop Type (Fruits & Vegetables, Turf & Ornamentals), Component (Pressure Regulators, Valves) and By Geography

Drip Irrigation Systems Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Crop Type (Fruits & Vegetables, Turf & Ornamentals), Component (Pressure Regulators, Valves) and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Drip Irrigation Systems Market is accounted for $7.38 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $15.45 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 13.1% during the forecast period. Drip irrigation system also referred as trickle irrigation. It is a system that primarily saves water and nutrients by allowing water to drip gradually to the roots of the plants. Majorly, the aim is to take water directly into the root areas and reduce evaporation. In addition, these systems distribute the water through a network of pipes, valves, emitters and tubing.

According to the US Geological Survey (USGS)—the agency for the US Department of the interior—irrigation water use in the US was estimated at 118,000 million gallons per day (Mgal/d) or 132 million acre-feet per year for ~63,500 thousand acres irrigated in 2015; of this, 5,490 thousand acres accounted for drip irrigation systems. The growing establishment of manufacturing facilities by prominent drip irrigation market players is anticipated to boost the market in North America.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing concerns over growing agricultural yields

To feed the increasing population, advanced irrigation technologies are greatly essential in the current agriculture system. The use of drip irrigation systems is very limited and hence it has an extensive scope of growth in the forthcoming years. There are several benefits related with the use of micro-irrigation such as the decrease in weed growth and soil erosion, uniform water distribution, proper field levelling, and others. At the same time, the industry is using modern technologies such as IoT, automation technologies, and remote monitoring concepts to bring precision in the irrigation activities to enhance water use efficiency.

Restraint:

High cost

The expense of the underlying speculation in market analysis is high, which utilizes trickle water systems frameworks uneconomical for low-esteem crops. The expense of trickle water system gear fluctuates with crop type, area, soil, water conditions, fertigation hardware, and filtration gear. This kind of water system is viewed as possible for agricultural harvests and money yields like grapes, sugarcane, tomatoes, and onions, in light of their high financial worth. A dribble water system is costly because of the necessity of enormous amounts of funnelling and filtration hardware.

Opportunity:

Growing governmental support to proliferate the market growth

With the increasing consciousness concerning the importance of micro-irrigation types such as drip irrigation in today’s agriculture, government bodies across the globe are offering high subsidies to promote its adoption among farmers. Launch of awareness programs to educate farmers about modern farming practices is anticipated to further aid the growth of the market of micro irrigation systems. Additionally, companies present in the market are making continuous efforts by growing their product portfolio, development across the globe, and collaborating with governments, which is predictable to positively influence the market during the forecast period.

Threat:

High cost

In many developing economies, farmers are resisting to adopt this systems owing to the high initial cost required for its set up, which is acting as a restraining factor for this market’s growth. Besides, lengthy installation time of the system and damage to irrigation components such as drip tubes owing to over-exposure to sun heat can also act as restraints for the growth of the market.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the economy globally, negatively influencing the global drip irrigation market growth. The low availability of raw materials and labor has disrupted the production of irrigation components across the globe. However, with the ease of lockdowns and restrictions, the demand for components and technology has increased and is anticipated to propel over the projected period, which in turn boosts the industry growth.

The Emitters segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The Emitters segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period. Emitter, which is also called drippers, is components that are combined in drip irrigation systems to control the emission of water into the root zone at a specific rate. Their easy installation makes them highly desirable for commercial as well as residential drip irrigation purposes. On-line drippers and in-line drippers are the most common dripper types. The use of in-line drippers is high as they are widely preferred for row and field crops such as vegetables, onion, cotton, and other crops. Filters, valves, and pressure pumps are other prominent components that play a significant role in the smooth functioning of trickle irrigation systems.

The Agriculture segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The Agriculture segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period Agriculture is the nurturing of land and plants to provide food, fiber etc., to sustain and enhance life. Additionally, it is used more proficiently through drip irrigation systems. Modern irrigation is one of the technological developments in agriculture that has substantial impact on water productivity.

Region with highest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. The irrigation form is extensively practiced across the U.S. Innovation in the irrigation sector and growing focus to produce higher crop yield by using least available resources are acting as primary drivers for the growth of the irrigation market across North America. The high efficacy of drip irrigation in saving water utilized in agricultural productions has enormously contributed in increasing the adoption of the technique across large as well as medium-sized farms in the U.S, and other economies of North America.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period Asia Pacific is predicted to grow at the significant market owing to increasing demand of drip irrigation system from numerous applications in developing economies, such as India, China, and South Korea is probable to preserve its dominance. China will have the fastest growth owing to its increasing acceptance of advanced agricultural practices and technologies.
