Farm Equipment Rental Market Analysis
The Farm Equipment Rental market is currently valued at USD 46.72 billion and is expected to register a CAGR above 7% during the forecast period.
Increasing agriculture mechanization and the need to reduce the financial burden on farmers across the globe, in the wake of rising import and export of cereals, are expected to drive demand in the market. In addition, the growing inclination for farm equipment with innovative features, and the rise in startups offering farm equipment for rent, are some of the other vital factors which will likely augment the growth of the farm equipment rental market.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a very negative impact on the farm equipment rental market worldwide. Equipment rental stores were closed due to lockdowns. Farmers also could not travel to rental stores due to the strict imposition of traveling restrictions and social distancing norms. However, in late 2020 and early 2021, as the COVID-19 pandemic receded and the COVID-19 criteria were taken back, growth returned in the global farm equipment rental market. Many new players also entered the market to tap into this post-COVID-19 growth in farm equipment rentals in markets like India. For instance
- In August 2021, Indian agritech startup FarmKart launched its tech-enabled platform rent4farm to offer farm equipment and tractor rental services in India.
The long-term factors, like the increase in the average farming machinery selling price, such as tractors and combine harvesters, Farming as a Service (FaaS) evolution, and increased mobile apps in offering farm equipment on rent and significant farm equipment manufacturers entry in the rental industry will likely drive the growth in farm equipment rental market.
Asia-Pacific dominates the farm equipment rental market due to the increasing demand for tractors and farming equipment such as harvesters, spraying, and threshing equipment for renting purposes. Small farmers in countries such as India need help to afford tractors. However, an Uber-like program is gradually expanding in the country, which makes it possible for farmers to get temporary access to tractors in demand.
Thus, the above factors are forecasted to produce significant growth in the farm equipment rental market.
