Based on crop type the field crops segment is projected to be the most significant contributor in the drip irrigation market during the forecast period

The demand for field crops is likely to record a higher market share between 2019 and 2025. Drip irrigation has been gaining significance among field crop growers for its precise application to the crops, and thus, is offering increased benefits such as reduced costs, higher profit margins, and lesser water and fertilizer requirements. Drip irrigation proved to be profitable for growing vegetables, orchard crops, and turf & lawns; however, in the last decade, its use in field crops such as corn, sugarcane, and cotton has also been profitable. The increasing prices of field crops have also fueled the drip irrigation market growth.

High costs and increasing demand for cash crops in regional and export markets drive the growth for surface drip irrigation systems.

In terms of application, the drip irrigation market is segmented into surface and subsurface systems. Well-designed irrigation equipment is capable of enhancing the agricultural production and reassures economic vitality of the farmer. Operational agronomical practices are essential components of an irrigation system. Surface drip irrigation equipment is widely used to irrigate perennial crops (trees and vines), vegetable crops and annual row crops. Surface equipment utilizes water, which is applied over the soil by drip tubes or laterals.

Asia Pacific is projected to account for the largest market size during the forecast period

The Asia Pacific drip irrigation market is estimated to be the largest between 2019 and 2025 and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR. Asia Pacific was the largest consumer of drip irrigation in 2019. The region is marking a dramatic shift from the installation of basic irrigation facilities to the adoption of precision irrigation systems through technological upgrading. The focus of agriculture has shifted from traditional crops to more commercial crops. Due to these changes, irrigation facilities are expected to modernize their irrigation management and preferably their infrastructure. Drip irrigation has become an essential aspect as commercial crops are sensitive to the amount of water required and the time taken for its delivery.
