Smart Agriculture is a farming strategy that employs information technology to manage, analyse, and identify variability on a farm in order to boost crop yields while minimising human work. By accessing real-time data about weather, yields, and soil quality, smart agriculture helps farmers to determine the exact amount of nourishment crops require to improve productivity. Farmers can employ advanced automation techniques to reduce labour and material costs with smart agriculture systems. Sensors and monitoring equipment are used in smart farming systems to help farmers make better decisions about water management, soil management, inventory control, and harvesting schedules. Smart agricultural applications include irrigation control, water resource management, crop planting, and productivity monitoring. Users will be able to map and record agricultural output and humidity information in real-time using smart agriculture, allowing them to immediately analyse how the crop fared.

One of the most well-known inventions in modern farming is smart agriculture. Several factors are now driving the smart agriculture market in North America. The most important smart agricultural market is projected to be in North America. Over the projection period, increased government operations and regulations aimed at improving the region's agriculture business will stimulate regional demand in North America. Farmers in the region are increasingly relying on smartphones and other intelligent mediums to stay informed about the newest developments in the agriculture sector due to the region's urbanisation.


Market Dynamics

Market Driving Factors

  • Smartphones are becoming increasingly important and popular to farmers in the region:

    Agriculture apps will become more prevalent in the not-too-distant future. Paper records are wasteful and monotonous, as well as archaic and annoying. Digital mobile apps are the way of the future. Farmers in the United States and rest of North America are using smartphones to increase efficiency and earnings. Farmers are realising that using mobile devices saves them time and money. Farmers are utilising their cell phones to perform everyday activities like checking commodity prices, identifying weeds and pests, and monitoring watering equipment activity. In distant places, smartphones bring portability and convenience. When farmers use these phones in conjunction with specific staff management and data collection technologies, the phones boost effectiveness, productivity, and profitability and this can potentially drive the market towards growth.
  • Easy tracking of the plant’s growth, weather changes and water requirement

    Farmers may now readily and easily determine the plant's development, weather fluctuations, and water requirements by deploying sensors across the farms, thanks to the emergence of smart agriculture. The sensors can also be used to record soil conditions, rainfall, and a variety of other factors. The smart agriculture can make decision-making easy for the farm management which is a major reason for its growing popularity and this can potentially drive the market towards growth in near future.

Market Restraining Factors

  • Scattered Agriculture Industry

    Agriculture is a fragmented industry with a high number of tiny companies. It is not dominated by a single or a few significant players. Implementing a standard machine-to-machine (M2M) solution is difficult due to industrial fragmentation in North American region. Inefficient input and resource distribution are caused by land fragmentation, resulting in excessive costs. Using smart farming practises in dispersed areas takes time, money, and resources since administering, overseeing, and getting data from distant farms is difficult. Farmers will also find it difficult to reap the benefits of scale for M2M systems as a result of this.

Key Market Opportunities

  • Emerging Big Data and Analytics in Agriculture

    Every day, massive volumes of farm data are generated, none of which is useful unless it is evaluated. This data is transformed into meaningful information using big data and analytics techniques. Statistics on crop disease, weather forecasts, agricultural pricing, irrigation, land usage, crop area, crop production, and crop projections are all utilised to determine the next farming season. Analytical instruments capture data on weather events, farm equipment, water cycles, crop quality, and quantity that is relevant to farm operations. This assists in the detection of patterns and connections that could otherwise go undiscovered. Many companies are developing agricultural analytics software to assist farmers in making the most of their field data. Analytical data, for example, aids farmers in understanding fertiliser requirements, soil acidity and alkalinity, soil nutrient levels, and other factors, helping them to make the best decisions for their crops and this factor can provide lucrative opportunities for the Smart Agriculture North American Market in coming years.

  • Impact of covid-19

    The automotive industry is critical to the economy's growth. However, during the second and third quarters of 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak impacted the whole automotive supply chain, affecting new car sales in FY 2020.

    South America is most affected by COVID-19, with Brazil leading the way, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina. South America's government (SAM) has taken a number of steps to protect its citizens and stem the spread of COVID-19. South America is expected to have fewer export revenues as commodity prices fall and export volumes fall, particularly to China, Europe, and the United States, which are all significant trading partners. The manufacturing industry, especially automotive manufacturing, has been damaged by containment measures in various South American countries. Due to the pandemic, major automotive manufacturers have also temporarily halted manufacturing in the region as a cost-cutting move. Furthermore, the automobile disc brake industry has been significantly affected in 2020 due to a lack of raw materials and supply chain disruption.

    The Automotive Brake System control module of a vehicle is meant to alert the driver with a warning light if the system fails. The module itself is rarely defective; instead, the sensors or the wiring to the sensors are frequently defective. The most typical cause of dysfunction is when the Automotive Brake System is contaminated with particles or metal shavings. There is no signal continuity when sensor wiring is destroyed. Brake fluid becomes contaminated in corrosive situations, and the hydraulic unit fails to function.
