Global Smart Irrigation Market to 2023: Residential, Turf & Landscape, Agriculture, and Golf Courses to Drive Smart Irrigation Market Growth

DUBLIN, Sept. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Smart Irrigation Market by System Type, Application, Component and Geography - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The smart irrigation market is estimated to be worth USD 825.0 million in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 1,755.1 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 16.30% from 2018 to 2023.

The major drivers for the smart irrigation market include initiatives undertaken by various governments to promote water conservation, surge in farming operating costs, and growing emphasis on increasing farm productivity and profits using smart irrigation solutions.

According to the United Nations 2016 report, the world population is expected to reach 9.3 billion by 2050, and its combined impact with urbanization and the rise of the middle class is bound to generate higher demand for healthy and sustainable food, which would require the current food production to double by 2050. Smart agtech solutions such as smart irrigation would prove instrumental in meeting this goal by optimizing agricultural practices, minimizing waste, developing climate resilience, and providing timely agricultural advisory.

The smart irrigation market has been segmented based on component, system type, application, and region. By component, the smart irrigation market has been classified into controllers, sensors, water flow meters, and others. Controllers are expected to hold the largest market size owing to the increasing adoption of these devices for automatic irrigation scheduling in applications such as agriculture, residential and commercial property, lawns and gardens, and landscaping. Smart controllers use weather and sensor data to automatically adjust irrigation schedules to any environmental changes.

By system type, the smart irrigation market has been segmented into weather-based and sensor-based. Weather-based system is expected to hold a larger market size during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing focus on farm efficiency and productivity. Weather-based systems have become quite popular among homeowners, commercial building contractors, and landscaping and golf course managers.

By application, the smart irrigation market has been segmented into agricultural and nonagricultural. Nonagricultural application is expected to hold a larger market size from 2018 to 2023. The growing importance of efficient watering practices and irrigation solutions for nonagricultural applications, such as residential, turf and landscape, and golf courses, is a major reason for the larger market size of the nonagricultural application segment.
