Africa Agricultural Irrigation Machinery Market Analysis
The Africa Agricultural Irrigation Machinery Market size is estimated at USD 188.48 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 269.33 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 7.40% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
Irrigation mechanization involves methods through which the crucial and scarce water resource can be optimally distributed. The most prominent mechanisms are the drip and sprinkler irrigation systems. Drip irrigation involves the release of water at the ground level in a dripping manner, whereas, sprinkler systems deliver water in a more voluminous fashion.
Water is the basic agricultural input required in any geographical condition. Before the advent of mechanization, farmers depended on natural sources for irrigation. However, mechanization in agriculture has moved well past tractors, to encompass every aspect of the crop production cycle. Such mechanization not only increases productivity and yield per hectare but also reduces the water consumption per farm. In the current agricultural scenario, water scarcity is a major challenge and a key driver for the use of micro-irrigation machinery systems. In most of countries, water scarcity leads to deterioration of the quality of food produced and reduction in quantity. Fragmented land needs a controlled amount of water where the irrigation system proved fruitful. Irrigated land is twice productive than the rain-fed land.
