Precision Agriculture - IoT Technology Transforming the Farming Industry

As per the survey by the World Bank, the farming industry is experiencing a sharp decline in agricultural land and labor. In addition to this, the depletion of natural resources such as fresh water and arable land and rapid growth of world population have further aggravated the need to develop smart farming solutions to meet the ever-increasing demand for food.

The Internet of Things (IoT) technology has played a major role in digitalizing the agriculture industry. From the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) in 2008, to the integration of sensing and navigation systems in machines and equipment used in farms, IoT today is being incorporated in all large and small farm operations. 

With the use of technologies such as sensors, cloud computing, radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, and data management software, IoT technologies assist in collecting data regarding crops, machines and inventory status, contribute in decision-making process, and help farmers increase their crop yields and reduce the cost of operations.

According to the market intelligence report published by BIS Research titled “Global IoT in Agriculture Market – Analysis and Forecast (2018-2023),” the global IoT in agriculture market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.15% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023 and is expected to reach $28.65 billion by 2023.   

Factors such as rising concern over food security and sustainability, substantial investments by governments, and the implementation of the cloud-based software systems along with automation and control and sensing systems are leveraging the growth of the market.

The growth of the market is not limited to developed countries but it can also be seen in developing countries such as China and India. The developing countries also seem to have realized the importance of advantages that the IoT technology offers and are rapidly adopting precision agriculture solutions. The study published by BIS Research examines the growth of the IoT in agriculture market for four prominent regions, namely North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest-of-the-World.

The report on IoT in agriculture market also constitutes a detailed analysis of the various segments of the market. These include system, application, as well as region. The application segment highlights the major application areas of the market such as precision crop farming, livestock monitoring and management, indoor farming, aquaculture, and others.

With research institutes such as Centre for Excellence for IoT India and NASSCOM community focusing on identifying the benefits of IoT-based agriculture solutions and the introduction of agricultural drones and big data analytics, the IoT in agriculture market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

Understanding How the Human Centric Lighting Market is Segmented

Lighting plays a significant role in the lives of people, it has the potential to bring about positive changes in people’s behaviour. In the year 1989, a research was carried out and it proved that natural daylight can trigger the production of melatonin and serotonin, two of the most important hormones in the human body. These two hormones are responsible for inducing peaceful sleep and happiness in people. This led to the research and development in the field of human centric lighting (HCL). According to a report published by the BIS Research , the HCL market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 37.2% and 35.2% both in terms of volume and value during the forecast period (2018 – 2024). The HCL is segmented by the component, end-user and by region. Request the Sample: Human Centric Lighting Market The human centric lighting market can be further segmented by component, type, end-users, and region. The components or the controls are further segmented as microprocessors & microco...

Liquid Biopsy, North America, and Lung Cancer Occupying a Major Share in the Market

  Owing to the market availability of large number of liquid biopsy technologies, the liquid biopsy segment currently accounts for a dominating share in the global minimally invasive biopsy technologies market .
