Soil Moisture Sensors Market By Sensor Type (Volumetric, Soil Water Potential), By Connectivity (Wired, Wireless), By Application (Agriculture, Construction and Mining, Residential, Forestry, Research Studies, Weather Forecasting, Others) - Growth, Future Prospects, and Competitive Analysis, 2019 - 2027
Key Market Insights
"To improve productivity, industries are adopting soil moisture sensors"
The soil moisture sensor is used to monitor the moisture of the soil by measuring the volumetric water content of the soil. The increasing scarcity of water resources has increased adoption of the soil moisture sensors market in a wide range of applications such as agriculture purpose, sports turf & ground, weather forecasting, forestry, residential use, landscaping and ground care, research studies, and construction.
The agricultural applications of the soil moisture sensor market is a major driving factor in the market. Increased adoption of modern agricultural practices is boosting the soil moisture sensor market. The use of soil moisture sensors in agricultural lands has improved the farm’s productivity and there has been a reduction in water consumption by farms. The soil moisture sensors help to avoid over-irrigation problems. The demand for soil moisture sensors is increasing due to a gradual shift in the climatic conditions and increasing awareness among farmers.
The key challenge faced by the soil moisture sensor market is the lack of awareness among farmers. The increasing adoption of soil moisture sensors in the applications sports segments, residential society, and others provides a greater opportunity for the market. Overall, the global soil moisture sensors market was US$ 172.4 Mn in 2018 and expected to reach US$ 597.1 Mn by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 14.8% from 2019 to 2027.
Connectivity Segment Analysis
"Wired segment dominating the market"
Wired sensors dominated the soil moisture sensor market in 2018 and accounted for the revenue share of over 65.0%. However, there are some problems associated with this product which include its high maintenance cost, labor cost, and inflexibility with respect to remote accessibility. But, it finds its wide applications in horticulture, agricultural science, botany, biology, and environmental science. The wireless soil moisture sensor segment is projected to exhibit the highest growth rate over the forecast period. They are increasingly used to measure volumetric water content in the soil, remotely.
Regional Analysis
"North America dominating the global market by region"
North America dominated the market in 2018 with around 38% of the global market. The relatively higher adoption of sensors across the agriculture and sports segments has kept the region at the top. The U.S. is house to a large number of soil moisture sensor manufacturers such as Campbell Scientific, Inc., and The Toro Company. Stringent environmental regulations and rising adoption of precision farming and yield monitoring practices by large and small farm owners to upsurge the productivity of fields is expected to drive the market.
Asia Pacific region is estimated to register the highest CAGR (15.6%) during the forecast period owing to increasing awareness regarding the usage of soil moisture sensors among farmers. In addition, the availability of huge arable land in countries such as China and India along with government schemes such as per drop each crop of India has further added advantage to the demand. This in turn expected to increase the utilization of soil moisture sensors. Furthermore, the rising concern of soil health in the region is positively impacting the growth of the market. Countries such as Japan, India, Australia, and China are expected to generate considerable revenue owing to the favorable government policies and rising disposable income of farmers.
