The Global Soil Monitoring Market is anticipated to reach USD 1598.78 Million by 2030, at a CAGR of 13.9% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030. Government and corporate continous efforts to promote sustainable agriculture practices, stringent government regulations pertaining to ecological stability, the pressing need to preserve soil quality, and the growing need to improve farm productivity to feed the world's growing population are some of the driving factors for the soil monitoring market.

 

Market Overview

Soil monitoring is the analysis of soil and its stability, constituents, and physical condition in order to evaluate or ensure its suitability for use. Soil monitoring aids in the discovery of soil threats related to animal health, human health, and climate. Soil monitoring systems are made up of devices that perform various functions such as reading/storing data, soil sensing, and transmitting data to computers via a transmitter. Soil monitoring data is useful for analyzing soil conditions and making decisions. These systems have a wide range of applications in agriculture, golf courses, research laboratories, and urban farming communities. Growing demand for improved farm productivity to feed a rapidly growing population, as well as the growing popularity of precision agriculture and fertility management services, are the primary factors driving the growth of the soil monitoring system market. Furthermore, rapid technological advancements in the agriculture sector, as well as an increase in agricultural activities, are expected to positively impact future growth. Furthermore, the availability of technologically advanced soil monitoring systems at reasonable prices drives the market growth. In addition, an increase in government investments in agricultural R&D fuels the market. However, a lack of technical skills and awareness about soil monitoring may limit the market growth. On the contrary, the rise in soil monitoring adoption in emerging countries is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the soil monitoring system market.

Driving Factors

Soil monitoring has become increasingly important as the world population continues to rise, potentially leading to food shortages. To address the threat of food insecurity for future generations, the farming community is under intense pressure to increase agricultural output. Because inputs must be precisely monitored to ensure proper crop development, the technology aids in increasing crop output per hectare. Good irrigation or water management techniques, combined with the use of soil moisture sensors, contribute to increased yields and crop quality. Sensors make farming more profitable by conserving water and energy and reducing costs significantly.

 

Precision agriculture, also referred to as smart farming, is a popular method that allows farmers to reduce input costs while increasing yields with limited resources such as seeds, fertilizer, and water. Soil monitoring technologies aid in field mapping and the deployment of soil monitoring sensors allows farmers to understand their crops at the micro-scale while reducing environmental impacts. Furthermore, various governments are taking steps to meet the surge in food demand. Precision Farming Development Centers in India receive a 100% cost subsidy from the government (PDFCs). These measures increase the popularity of precision farming, which drives the soil monitoring system market even further.

 

Restraining Factors

The affordability issues associated with soil monitoring components such as sensors and systems, as well as low levels of adoption of advanced farming technologies in some global geographies, are severely impeding the market growth. Furthermore, the difficulties associated with soil monitoring due to soil spatial variability are a significant factor impeding the market growth. Furthermore, soil monitoring necessitates technical knowledge in order to process the data and comprehend the findings. The lack of this expertise among farmers in many areas limits the adoption of soil monitoring and dampens market growth.
