Market Definition
Unmanned aerial vehicles, also known as drones, are aircraft systems that do not have a human pilot on board. They are also working on missions that could endanger manned aircraft. Drones are also used in monitoring and salvage operations. Prior to a mission, smaller aircraft were used to gather information about hostile areas.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Agriculture Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Adoption of agricultural drones to facilitate field management
The fact that crop yields of rice, white rice, and maize are reduced in warmer climates due to growing of insects is a major factor driving the growth of the agricultural drones market. Due to the scarcity of skilled labour in the fields, farm owners are investing in agricultural drones to achieve shorter lead times in activities such as crop surveillance and seeding, among others, when compared to manual labour. In the case of large acreage field management, the need for agricultural drones has been deemed critical. Furthermore, remote and continuous monitoring of agricultural sites using various features such as infrared cameras, propulsion systems, GPS, customizable controllers, and flight planning will promote the use of agricultural drones to a greater extent.
- Implementation of smart agricultural practices to meet rising food demand globally
Rapid population growth is putting pressure on the agricultural sector around the world to increase productivity in order to meet rising food demand. Farmers are increasingly implementing smart harvest technologies such as harvesting robots, automation, control systems, sensors, and imaging systems to increase profitability and output in less time and at a lower cost. The scarcity of arable land is a major factor driving demand for indoor farming activities and the increased use of remote sensing technologies to reduce labour costs.
Opportunity
Continuous sensor development and an increase in the number of applications across a wide range of industry verticals has fuelled the growth of automation and monitoring systems, allowing business executives to make data-driven decisions. Furthermore, increased awareness of predictive maintenance of heavy industrial machinery and other critical setups has benefited end-user industry verticals. As a result of the reduction in battery-powered sensors and lower maintenance costs, this is expected to increase demand for agricultural drones.
Restraints
Lack of proper air traffic management and a scarcity of skilled and trained professionals will likely act as market restraints for the growth of unmanned aerial vehicles in agriculture during the forecasted timeframe. The biggest and most pressing challenge for the market's growth will be safety and security concerns and restrictions on commercial usage.

COVID-19 Impact on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Agriculture Market
The pandemic has disrupted most manufacturing and global supply chains, preventing agricultural drone manufacturers from obtaining raw materials and various components required for agricultural drone assembly. However, several countries imposing lockdowns and strict social distancing norms have reduced labour availability, only increasing demand for agricultural drones. Most importantly, covid-19 has impacted global food demand by lowering purchasing power, causing a decline in the global agricultural sector as well as the agricultural drones market.
