Smart Harvest Market is Estimated to Surge at a CAGR Of 11% Through 2033

The global smart harvest market is expected to hit a valuation of US$ 40 billion by 2033, expanding at 11% CAGR from 2023 to 2033, as per this new industry analysis by Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider.

Harvesting is a critical component of every agricultural operation because it influences the overall profitability of the process. Harvesting on time and using efficient harvesting methods are becoming increasingly important, especially in fruit and vegetable production. Smart harvesting is the employment of self-driving farming robots to pick vegetables and fruits with little or no human intervention. Smart harvesting utilizes smart technologies such as GPS, cloud computer vision, satellite photos, AI, MI, big data, and IoT to boost agricultural productivity.

Rapid population growth is putting pressure on the agricultural industry around the world to enhance productivity to satisfy rising food demand. Farmers are rapidly implementing smart harvest technologies like harvesting robots, control systems, automation, imaging systems, and sensors to increase profitability and yield in less time and at a lower cost. 

Furthermore, limited arable land and a lack of skilled labor are forcing farmers to use smart harvesting methods. The growing need to increase profitability and productivity while minimizing crop waste during harvesting procedures is fueling the growth in the global market. Moreover, farmers' steady transition toward sophisticated farm mechanization is a crucial component contributing to the increased usage of harvesting robotics, automation, and autonomous combine harvesters.
