The microirrigation systems market is projected to reach USD 17.8 billion by 2028 from USD 10.4 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 9.4%

The probiotics in the animal feed market comprises of both drip and micro sprinkler types; although the drip form holds a larger market share, the micro-sprinkler type is driven by factors such as their high usage for high-value crops. The demand for drip type in microirrigation systems market is mainly due to factors such as increased usage of calcium on a wide range of crops. The major constraints and challenges are high initial investment, continuous maintenance requirements, and lack of timely reimbursement for subsidies which, in turn, hinder the growth of the microirrigation systems market.

Drip irrigation is considered to be highly suitable for widespread and highly valued commercial crops, it is increasingly being applied to fields of oilseeds, pulses, cotton, and wheat. Research has proven that this system of irrigation can also be operated efficiently in undulating terrains, rolling topography, barren lands, and areas with shallow soil layers. This is an advantage that drip irrigation offers. Given the constant pressure of the global population and the resultant requirement of agricultural commodities, there is a need to increase the area under cultivation. Microirrigation facilities, particularly drip irrigation, are viable methods of expanding the area under cultivation. Apart from irrigation efficiency, drip irrigation systems help in saving labor costs and fertilizers used with less weed growth. All these benefits imparted by drip microirrigation system is driving its market and high demand.

Irrigation scheduling can be managed precisely to meet grapevine demands, holding the promise of increased yield and fruit quality. Emitters evenly spaced on the tubing ensure that water is distributed uniformly to each plant. The emission device and its flow rate and spacing depend on the age of the vines being grown and the soil texture. Microirrigation is known for its flexibility. Each system is custom designed to fit the needs of the vineyard to maintain optimum moisture at the plant root zone. As they apply water directly to a plant’s roots, a minimal amount of water is wasted, and drip systems can operate at up to 95 percent uniformity. These systems are therefore perfect for drought-plagued areas. As a result, these systems are majorly used for orchard crops and vineyards. Thus, the crop type is dominating the microirrigation systems market.

The study includes an in-depth competitive analysis of these key players in the microirrigation systems market with their company profiles, recent developments, and key market strategies.
