Farm Machinery Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Type (Cultivator, Rotator, Chisel Plow, Harvester, Roller, Field Sprayer and Spreader, Irrigation System, Livestock Equipment, Tractors, and Others), By Capacity (Small, Medium, and Large), By Operation (Manual, Semi-Autonomous, and Fully-Autonomous), By Application (Spraying, Water Supply and Conservation, Cultivation, Harvesting, Seeding, Weeding, Livestock Farming, and Others) and Region Forecast 2019-2030

Farm Machinery Market size was valued at US$ 11,956.3 million in 2023 and is expanded to grow at a significant CAGR of 4.9% from 2024-2030. The agricultural sector is heavily reliant on farming machinery since it aids in boosting output at lower prices and with less human and animal effort. The demand for farm technology has also increased in recent years, and this trend is projected to continue as the world's population grows. Common farm machinery used includes cultivators, tractors, and planter mowing tools.

The market is also driven by increasing mechanization rates in developing countries, which may impact the long-term. The shrinking land, water resources, and labor force increase the need for farm mechanization in developing countries. Governments are also providing incentives to farmers who invest in improved equipment to meet the demands for increased output more efficiently. Over the next seven years, rising global food demand is predicted to positively impact the market. The agricultural equipment industry is being driven by a rapidly rising population, urbanization, favorable government initiatives, and skyrocketing food demand worldwide. The transition from traditional farming methods to modern agricultural gear has given the equipment market a new lease on life. Farm machinery has shown to be quite efficient in terms of both saving time and improving crop productivity. In 2021, the tractor segment had the most market share by type. The agriculture sector is likely to benefit from increased R&D activity and the launch of hybrid and electric tractors by a number of companies. Farm mechanization is becoming more popular, and governments' push for it may improve sales and lead to innovations like driverless machinery, which might drive the market throughout the projection period.
