The rapid growth of the smart irrigation market can be attributed to various factors, such as the increasing adoption of smart irrigation devices, and sensing and monitoring devices by farmers. It is also expected that the cost of smart irrigation technology will decrease in the next couple of years, mainly because of the declining prices of major hardware components. As a result, the smart irrigation market is expected to witness high growth during the forecast period.

The report profiles key players such as The Toro Company (US), Netafim (Israel), Hunter Industries (US), Rain Bird Corporation (US), HydroPoint (US), Rachio (US), Banyan Water (US), Rain Machine (US), ET Water (US), Galcon (Israel), Weathermatic (US), Blossom (US), Skydrop (US), Delta-T Devices (UK), Calsense (US), AquaSpy (US), Soil Scout (Finland), Caipos (Austria), Acclima (US), and Rain Machine (US).

Controllers to hold largest market share during forecast period

Controllers are expected to hold the largest market share owing to the increasing adoption of these devices for automatic irrigation scheduling in applications such as agriculture, residential and commercial property, lawns and gardens, and landscaping. Smart controllers use weather and sensor data to automatically adjust irrigation schedules to any environmental changes. Smart controllers have additional features, such as multiple programs to allow different watering frequencies for different types of plants, rain delay settings, input terminals for sensors such as rain/freeze and soil moisture, and remote operation.
