TechNavio today launched its report, Global Agricultural Robot Market 2012-2016, based on an in-depth analysis covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the significant trends impacting this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Engineering team said: ”The Global Agricultural Robot market is witnessing increased investments owing to the development of new, enhanced, and technologically advanced robots. Several major vendors and startup companies are increasingly investing in developing robots for agricultural purposes in order to gain the first-mover advantage. Governments are showing increased interest in the development of the Robotics industry by funding investments, thus having a huge positive impact on the growth of the market.”
According to the report, the need among farmers to increase productivity is one of the major drivers of the market, and its impact on the market is expected to continue till 2020. Unlike humans, robots can work for a long period of time and maintain consistency and accuracy throughout. They can perform the work more quickly than a human, thus enhancing productivity. For instance, the adoption of milking robots, rice-planting robots, and robots involved in other labor-intensive activities such as moving pots and shrubs is increasing at a good rate, and they are expected to witness increased adoption during the forecast period.
Further, the report reveals that one of the major challenges in the Global Agricultural Robot market is the complexities involved in agricultural work.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
