Agricultural Robots Market 2015-2024: Driverless Tractors, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Material Management, Field Crops and Forest Management, Soil Management, Dairy Management, and Animal Management - Research and MarketsResearch and Markets has announced the addition of the "Agricultural Robots: Driverless Tractors, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Material Management, Field Crops and Forest Management, Soil Management, Dairy Management, and Animal Management for Precision Agriculture" report to their offering. The Market is Expected to Reach $74.1 Billion in Annual Revenue The market for agricultural robots is developing at a rapid pace, with a large number of established and startup agricultural technology companies developing, piloting, and launching an innovative range of robotic systems to tackle a wide variety of tasks. Key application areas for agricultural robots include driverless tractors, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), material management, field crops and forest management, soil management, dairy management, and animal management, with a diverse set of subcategories emerging within each of those areas. The rising demand for agricultural robots is being driven by a number of factors including global population growth, increasing strain on the food supply, declining availability of farm workers, the challenges and complexities of farm labor, the cost of farm workers, changing farmlands, climate change, the growth of indoor farming, and the broader automation of the agriculture industry. Market challenges remain for development of the sector, however, such as unclear value propositions, limited awareness of robotic systems amog growers, insufficient robotic solutions, the difficulty of matching human-like dexterity with machines, fragmented technology development, weak administrative support, and infrastructure issues. Against the backdrop of these market drivers and barriers, the author forecasts that shipments of agricultural robots will increase significantly in the years ahead, rising from 32,000 units in 2016 to 594,000 units annually in 2024.
