India Micro Irrigation Systems Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Indian Micro Irrigation Systems Market Analysis

The India Micro Irrigation Systems Market size is estimated at USD 0.64 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 1.08 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 11.10% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

• India is an agriculture-dependent country, and agriculture in India is rain-fed. So there is a potential for promoting micro irrigation in the market. Rajasthan is a state with high micro-irrigation adaptability and has a large area under micro-irrigation due to the lack of water resources in the state.
• Furthermore, Indian farmers have been increasingly encouraged to adopt micro-irrigation systems on open fields for efficient water usage and an increase in agricultural yield. The area under open field micro-irrigation is higher than greenhouses in the country. Most of the greenhouses equipped with micro-irrigation in the country are used for horticultural production, with more farmers inclining toward greenhouse cultivation owing to benefits such as year-round production.
• The drip irrigation system dominated the market in 2021, owing to higher subsidies offered by the central and state governments in various states. The maximum adoption of the drip irrigation system is witnessed for fruit crops, followed by plantation crops, in terms of area coverage. Jain Irrigation Systems Limited, Netafim, Avanijal Agri Automation Pvt. Ltd, Agsmartic Technologies Pvt. Ltd, and Flybird Farm Innovations Pvt. Ltd are the most active players in the Indian micro-irrigation systems market. These players are adopting product innovation as their most adopted strategy to have a competitive edge over other players in the market.
