Industry Overview
The Global Precision Farming Software Market is projected to grow from USD 1.5 billion in 2023 to USD 3.6 billion in 2030 at a CAGR of 12.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2030.
Precision farming is a farm management concept based on observing, measuring and responding to variability in crops and soil with the goal of maximizing the return on inputs while preserving resources. Combine technologies like soil mapping, remote sensing, UAVs and GPS integrations to forge a dialogue between them, a conversation we can tap. To get the clear picture of their land, many growers have already begun instrumenting precision techniques to obtain the qualitative and quantitative data they need to increase their yield. The idea is to forge a holistic picture of the land and the conditions influencing its composition that pivots in real-time using remote sensing technology. The sensors collect granular measurements related to salinity, moisture, fertilizer potency, weather, growth rate, and any other environmental variable impacting the lifecycle.
