DUBLIN, Oct. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Agricultural Robots Market with COVID-19 Impact Analysis by Offering, Type (UAVs, Milking Robots, Driverless Tractors, Automated Harvesting Systems), Farming Environment, Farm Produce, Application (Harvest Management, Field Farming), Geography - Global Forecast to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Agricultural Robots Market is Expected to Grow from USD 4.6 Billion in 2020 and is Projected to Reach USD 20.3 Billion by 2025; it is Expected to Grow at a CAGR of 34.5%

A shortage of new farmers, as indicated by the rising average age of farmers is driving the further use of automated agricultural equipment as well as the development of new agricultural robots. Development is taking place in all aspects of agriculture, such as imaging, navigation, planting, weeding, and harvesting. Large farms are also collaborating with companies developing agricultural technology to drive down costs and to maintain their cost advantage in the market. Increasing requirement for food globally will also require increasing productivity, which can only be achieved through robotic automation.

Agricultural robots automate slow, repetitive, and dull tasks for farmers, allowing them to focus more on improving overall production yields. Agricultural robots include unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones, milking robots, automated harvesting systems, driverless tractors, and other robots such as unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) robots used in nurseries or greenhouses, sorting and packing robots, and weed control robots.

Currently, drones dominate the agricultural robots market; however, with the high rate of commercialization of driverless tractors, they are expected to overtake drones within the next 3 to 4 years. The driverless tractors segment is expected to have the highest growth potential among all agricultural robot types.

The market in the US is expected to have the largest share of the market

Large farms and focus on agricultural productivity is one of the primary reason for the US having the largest market share when compared to other regions. With increasing restrictions on immigration and the shortage of farm labour, large farms are investing in companies that develop agricultural robots. HARVEST CROO (US) is one such company and is mainly funded by large strawberry farm operators.

Robotic harvesting vehicles are also being tested in Florida and California to harvest other fruits such as apples and grapes to automate labour-intensive tasks. Countries such as Canada, Mexico, and Brazil are also adopting various agricultural robots. Hence, North America is expected to have the highest share of the market.
