Dublin, Nov. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global IoT in Agriculture Market: Focus on Systems (Sensing, Communication, Cloud Computing, Data Management), Applications (Precision Crop Farming, Indoor Farming, Livestock Monitoring, Aquaculture)- Analysis and Forecast (2018-2023)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Global IoT in Agriculture Market to Reach $28.65 Billion by 2023
With the exponential growth of world population, shrinking agricultural lands, and depletion of finite natural resources, the need to enhance farm yield has become critical. Limited availability of natural resources such as fresh water and arable land along with slowing yield trends in several staple crops, have further aggravated the problem. Another looming concern over the farming industry is the shifting structure of agricultural workforce. Moreover, agricultural labor in most of the countries has declined. As a result of the declining agricultural workforce, adoption of internet connectivity solutions in farming practices has been triggered, to reduce the need for manual labor.
To address the escalating demand for food from the limited farmlands and labor, established agriculture machinery developers and technology vendors are introducing innovative solutions to the farming arena. These solutions are focused on helping farmers close the supply demand gap, by ensuring high yields, profitability, and protection of the environment. The approach of using IoT technology to ensure optimum application of resources to achieve high crop yields and reduce operational costs is called precision agriculture. IoT in agriculture technologies comprise specialized equipment, wireless connectivity, software and IT services.
