The sensor-based controller systems demand is likely to grow in the near future, dominating the smart irrigation market. The agriculture industry is the key driver for the surge in sensor-based controller systems’ usage to increase crop productivity and save water. It controls the data of sensors such as soil, temperature, rain, moisture and humidity sensors deployed on the field and facilitates the analyses. Therefore, sensor-based controller systems do not rely on weather station data and are more preferred.
The controller category contributed $562.9 million to the smart irrigation market revenue last year. The increased demand for smart irrigation controllers market is resulting in market growth, attributed to the efficacy of the irrigation operations and integration of cloud solutions. The rise in the population, leading to the insufficiency of resources such as food and water, demands advanced solutions to increase crop production. Here, smart irrigation systems supported by government initiatives play a crucial role in catering to the need with enhanced productivity and cost-effective irrigation solutions.
