Market Dynamics
- The global Drone Farming market growth is primarily driven by the rise in the pressure on global food supply owing to climate change and high rates of global population. ICT-driven tools and technologies to enhance decision making through accurate, reliable and timely information have an important role to play, which has increased the adoption of such technologies to increase the yield. The companies are making software for better decision making and increase yield for agriculture. For instance, in November 2018, Parrot, the leading European drone group, today announces Parrot Bluegrass Fields, an end-to-end agriculture drone solution, which provides farmers, agronomists and researchers with the insights they need to boost the quality of their crops and maximize yields.
- However, lack of awareness among people and the government regulation for the air traffic management for the commercial drones will hinder the growth of the Drone Farming market for the forecast period.
Market Segmentation
- By Type, the global Drone Farming market is segmented into Single Rotor Drone, Multi-Rotor Drone, Fixed Wing Drone, and Others. Fixed-wing Drone has the dominant position in the Type segment and is expected to retain its dominance in the forecasted period due to they can fly high are used for mapping and the survey of the agriculture lands. However, multi-rotor drone is expected to grow with higher CAGR in the forecast period due to the high precision and also, they can take off and land vertically.
- By Offering, the global Drone Farming market is segmented into Software services and Hardware. Software Services has the dominant share in the Offering segment and is expected to retain its dominance in the forecast period. The rise in the collection is data form the fields are stored in databases to process and get the insights from the data. The various investments for done in the agriculture software companies such as Taranis (Israel), a precision agriculture intelligence platform, announced the closing of a USD 20 million Series B round of financing. With the potential to increase yields by 7.5%, Taranis uses deep-learning technology and agronomic understanding to offer unprecedented insights that create a more sustainable farming ecosystem. Taranis turns the collected data into actionable insights, helping farmers monitor their acreage effectively by improving crop yields and cutting costs.
Regional Analysis
- By geography, the global Drone Farming Market is segmented into North America, Asia-Pacific (APAC), Europe, South America, and the Middle East and Africa (MEA).
- North America holds the largest market share for Drone Farming Market. The growth is attributed to the exemption from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under the part 107 rule, which is leading to high adoption of drones in agriculture. With the growing demand there are huge investment in the region for the development of the drones. For instance, California-based Joby Aviation says it has secured $100 million in Series B financing to take its all-electric passenger aircraft into pre-production and regulatory certification. Intel Capital led the investment round, which also includes Singapore-based EDBI, JetBlue Technology Ventures, Toyota AI Ventures, Allen & Company AME Cloud Ventures, Ron Conway, Capricorn Investment Group, 8VC, Sky Dayton and Paul Sciarra. Joby also revealed a previously unsecured Series A round, led by Capricorn in 2016, which brings total funding to $130 million.
- Europe is after North America in terms of market share in the global Drone Farming market, due to favorable regulations by the government. Asia-Pacific will be growing with the highest CAGR for drones farming in the next few years. Due to the presence of large farming lands and high population growth which have created large demand for the food. China, India, and Japan are the major contributor to the Asia-Pacific region. The drone industry is characterized and driven by one company: Da-Jiang Innovations (DJI), China. DJI has over 70% of the global market share for the consumer drone industry, with revenue of $2.7 billion in 2017. No Western-based company can compete with the complete supply chain integration, manufacturing pipeline, innovative pace and logistics support that defines the Shenzhen-based company. This provides immense and clear competitive advantages.
