The Global Drip Irrigation Market is anticipated to reach USD 12.15 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 10.08% during the predicted period 2022 to 2030. Innovative irrigation methods, such as drip irrigation, have been invented for providing the required amount of water to a crop at a specific time. Drip irrigation is more effective than conventional methods and sprinkler irrigation because water is applied directly to the root zone, resulting in minimal water evaporation losses. In silty soil, a well-designed drip irrigation system reduces evaporation, water runoff, and deep percolation. Because of these benefits, drip irrigation is gaining traction in many countries that have limited irrigation water resources.

 

Market Overview

Drip irrigation, also known as trickle irrigation, involves dripping water onto the soil at very low rates (2-20 liters/hour) through a network of small diameter plastic pipes fitted with emitters or drippers. Water is applied close to plants, wetting only the soil in which the roots grow, as opposed to surface and sprinkler irrigation, which wets the entire soil profile. Drip irrigation water applications are more frequent (typically every 1-3 days) than other methods, resulting in a very favorable high moisture level in the soil where plants can flourish. The global market for drip irrigation systems is being driven primarily by efforts to increase agricultural productivity while utilizing limited resources. The rapidly increasing global population is driving up demand for agricultural products, which is driving up demand for agricultural crop cultivation using minimal resources such as arable land, water, and energy. The growing global water crisis is causing governments to promote water-efficient irrigation technologies such as drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation systems for agricultural and non-agricultural purposes. Drip irrigation's popularity among all agricultural producers for its precise crop application, attributed to government initiatives and financial institution support, global water scarcity, and technological innovation, will drive the drip irrigation market in the coming years.

Driving Factors

The increase in technological advancement has reduced the need for an agricultural labour force. Depending on the level of automation, the labour cost to operate a drip irrigation system is considered marginal. Landscapes, greenhouses, home gardens, field crops, orchards, and vineyards have all used this type of irrigation. With growing awareness of the importance of micro-irrigation types such as drip irrigation in today's agriculture, governments around the world are offering large subsidies to encourage farmers to use them. The launch of awareness creation to educate farmers about modern farming techniques is anticipated to help with the growth of the micro irrigation system market. Furthermore, market participants are making ongoing efforts to expand their product portfolios, expand globally, and collaborate with governments, which are projected to positively influence the market during the period of forecasting.

 

Restraining Factors

Farmers in many developing economies are resisting the adoption of micro-irrigation systems due to the high initial cost of installation, which is limiting the market's growth. Furthermore, the system's lengthy installation time and damage to irrigation components such as drip tubes caused by overexposure to sun heat can act as restraints on the drip irrigation market's growth.

 

Market Segmentation

 

The Global Drip Irrigation Market share is segmented into application, crop type, and component.

• The surface segment is expected to grow fastest in the predicted period.

Based on the application, the global drip irrigation market is segmented into surface, subsurface. In the drip irrigation market, the surface segment is expected to grow the most in the upcoming years. The reason behind the growth is, surface drip irrigation systems are becoming increasingly popular due to their low installation and maintenance costs. Surface drip irrigation is frequently used to irrigate perennial crops (trees and vines) as well as annual row crops. However, the design and management of farm machinery for these crops differ from that of other row crops. Furthermore, the Asia Pacific drip irrigation market dominated the surface segment and is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate during the forthcoming years.

 

• The field crop segment is anticipated to dominate the global market during the predicted period.

On the basis of crop type, the global drip irrigation market is classified into fruits & nuts, field crops, vegetable crops, and others. Among these, the field crop segment is estimated to dominate the global market during the study period. The reason behind the growth is, it has numerous advantages, including the ability to increase profit percentages while using fewer fertilizers and water. Furthermore, the growing urban population has prompted farmers to start growing sugarcane and corn, which will contribute to segment expansion during the period of forecasting.

 

• The emitters/drippers segment accounted for the largest majority share.

Based on the component, the global drip irrigation market is categorized into emitters/drippers, drip tubes/drip lines, pressure pumps, valves, filters, fittings & accessories. Among these, the emitters/drippers segment accounted for the largest majority share and is predicted to dominate the segment throughout the estimated period due to benefits such as no water clogging. Furthermore, increased technological advancement in emitters by market players due to increased demand from both residential and commercial industries is projected to fuel the rising trends.
