Growing Need to Improve Farm Productivity |
The Global Soil Monitoring Market size is projected to reach from an estimated USD 963.04 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 12.30% from 2022 to 2030.
To determine or ensure that soil is suitable for use, global soil monitoring involves examining the soil's consistency, contents, and physical state. The soil is at risk from compaction, contaminant buildup, organic material deterioration, stability issues, flooding, salinization, and acidification. Identification of these and other potential risks to the soil, local climate, animal health, and human health is made easier with the use of soil monitoring. The global soil monitoring market is being driven by the growing need to boost farm production to fulfil the rising global food demand. The global soil monitoring system is becoming more and more popular because of the rising popularity of sustainable agricultural methods. Technology advancements in agricultural practises, such as soil moisture sensors, which promote water conservation and boost farm output, are predicted to raise demand for global soil monitoring solutions. Improved soil monitoring systems are anticipated because of increased public funding for agricultural R&D initiatives. Environmental problems such as diminishing water supplies, climate change, and threatened ecosystems are motivating the need to govern the soil. Due to the limited availability of natural resources like freshwater and arable land, the popularity of soil monitoring systems has increased. The usage of soil monitoring systems in agriculture is anticipated to increase with the emergence of smart cities in developing economies, opening attractive potential for key industry participants in the coming years. In addition, the necessity for more thorough soil study has been impacted by changes in weather patterns and current farming practises. Variations in soil characteristics brought on by abrupt climate circumstances have spurred the expansion of digital soil monitoring.
COVID-19 Analysis Of Soil Monitoring Market
The COVID-19 epidemic has had a major effect on the global Soil Monitoring Market. Because workers stayed at their homes due to COVID-19, worldwide factories have had difficulty integrating new global soil monitoring systems, which has affected global supply chains and had an impact on the global economy. Due to the severe lockdown and preventative measures, such as social separation, labour crises have occurred, which have impacted both the farm sector and the crops. However, due to COVID-19, technologically advanced global soil monitoring devices, such as robotics and telematics, are being used to overcome obstacles like labour and to obtain more accurate results by adopting automated global soil monitoring devices, which are also likely to be less susceptible to diseases like COVID. As a result, the market will develop in the forecast period due to an increase in demand for sophisticated soil moisture monitoring equipment.
Soil Monitoring Market Drivers
Rising government and company’s effort to promote sustainable agriculture practices
Agriculture has evolved tremendously since World War II. Food and fibre productivity has grown dramatically as a result of new technology, mechanisation, greater chemical usage, specialisation, and government policies that promoted increasing output while lowering food costs. Because of these improvements, fewer farmers can produce more food and fibre at lower prices.
Although these advancements have had many good consequences and eliminated numerous dangers in agriculture, they have also come at a high cost. Topsoil depletion, groundwater contamination, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, the decline of family farms, neglect of farm labourers' living and working conditions, new threats to human health and safety due to the spread of new pathogens, economic concentration in food and agricultural industries, and rural community disintegration are prominent among these.
The market is expanding because of increased government and corporate efforts to encourage sustainable agricultural methods. Additionally, the growing need to improve farm productivity to feed an expanding population, strict government regulations pertaining to ecological stability, and the escalating call to preserve soil quality are some of the major factors driving the growth of the global soil monitoring system market.
Soil Monitoring Market Restraints
Spatial Variability of Soil
Uneven litter decomposition, plant mix, soil moisture content, topographic situation, historical land use, and soil management technique can all contribute to soil spatial variability. These components may have varying effects on chemical and biological processes in various peatlands. Due to the spatial variability of soil, it is not practical to monitor every single parameter to represent large regions, particularly including grounds and farms. This is a major factor impeding the growth of the global soil monitoring business.
Soil Monitoring Market Opportunities
Integration of Advanced Technologies such as IOT and Data Analytics
Many upcoming agricultural technologies appear to be highly promising for the future of farming. IoT was originally considered an emergent agrotechnology, but it has already entered the mainstream due to widespread usage. By its most basic description, IoT in agriculture is just the Internet managing things. IoT smart agriculture solutions are intended to assist in agricultural field monitoring by employing sensors and automating irrigation systems. As a result, farmers and associated brands can easily monitor field conditions from any location. Remote sensing, for example, is revolutionising the way data is acquired from various nodes in a farm.' IoT-based remote sensing uses sensors placed alongside farms, such as weather stations, to gather data, which is then transmitted to analytical tools for analysis. Sensors are devices that detect irregularities. Farmers can use the analytical dashboard to monitor crops and take action based on insights.
