Market Definition
Harvesting is the method of removing crop from where it was growing. Few tree fruit and root crops can be left in the field and harvested as required. Harvesting robots are used on the farm that define the plant’s location, and the size of vegetables and fruit. This robot uses computer vision algorithms to locate and detect fruits and grains.
Harvesting Robots Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Increasing demand of harvesting robots for fruit and vegetable harvesting
Fruit and vegetable harvesting is the method of harvesting vegetables, fruits, flowers, and many other from growing crops using human labour or technology which helps extend their shelf life by preventing post-production damage. The use of harvesting robots for fruit and vegetable harvesting can surge the production capacity and quality products owing to decreased various manual tasks such as pruning vines, beheading apples before storage amongst others which enable farmers to not only save their time than traditional farming practices that require hiring extra workers. Therefore, increasing demand for harvesting robots for fruit and vegetable harvesting will likely boost the market growth.
- Surging product launches by major market players
The surging product launches by market players is expected to drive the market growth in this market. For instance, Future Acres, has launched its first robot named Carry, with plans to tackle grape picking in 2021. Carry relies on AI technology to transport hand-picked crops. Hence, decreasing the challenges of labour shortages and launching new products into the market as per the farmer's needs are driving the growth of the market.
Opportunities
- Rising awareness regarding smart agriculture among farmers
Smart agriculture is the usage of technologies such as robots, location systems, sensors, the internet of things, and artificial intelligence on a farm. Progressively increasing awareness regarding the smart agriculture among farmers is rising the adoption of robots, such as harvesting robots. Using harvesting robots in the smart agriculture enhances the food production and also improves the quality food. Advanced farming technology proves an important part of the farmer's daily work. This is expected to create immense opportunities for the market growth.
- Emergence of harvesting robots
Companies have started constructing harvesting robots that complete various tasks and minimize human work. The major concern over harvesting robots is the harvesting of soft crops such as strawberries. These crops can be damaged easily or missed entirely. As a result of these concerns, progress in this area is being made. For instance, The Harvest Crop Robotics, Florida-based company, has recently tested one of their strawberry pickers. This robot takes only 3 days to pick a 25-acre field, which replaces a crew of approximately 30 farm workers. This development is being made in harvesting apples, grapes and other crops. Thus, emerging launches associated with harvesting robots will generate lucrative opportunities for the market growth.
Restraints/ Challenges
- Multiple issues associated with harvesting robots market
High expense of automation for small farms (10–1,000 acres) will act as major restraint factor which may hamper the growth of the harvesting robots market during the forecast period. Furthermore, the high cost and complication associated with fully autonomous robots will act as the biggest and foremost challenges for the growth of the harvesting robots market.
