Geographic Information Systems Market in Agriculture by Offering, Application (Soil & Agricultural Mapping, Crop Monitoring, Yield Prediction, Livestock Monitoring), Sub-sector (Crop Farming, Forestry, Livestock) - Global Forecast to 2030

The Geographic Information Systems Market in Agriculture is projected to reach $4.6 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 12.9% from 2024 to 2030. The growth of the geographic information systems market in agriculture is driven by a surge in demand for crop mapping solutions due to climatic changes and increasing government initiatives in the agriculture sector. However, a lack of awareness & spatial intelligence expertise may restrain the market's growth.

Furthermore, the increasing adoption of cloud computing technologies and constant upgrades in mapping and navigation solutions are expected to offer significant growth opportunities for the Geographic Information Systems Market in Agriculture. However, high initial investment costs may hinder the growth of this market.

Surge in the Demand for Crop Mapping Solutions due to Climatic Changes Drive the Geographic Information Systems Market in Agriculture

The climatic changes majorly impact the agriculture sector. The change in climate results in declining soil quality, temperature change may prevent crops from growing, and floods & droughts harm crops and reduce yields. Government and farmers rely on climate risk analytics and geographic information system (GIS) technology to prevent such situations. Thus, a geographic information system (GIS) is used to make precise decisions for weather monitoring and forecasting purposes. Thus, providing new opportunities for precision farming.

Agricultural sectors are leveraging precision agriculture technologies, including GIS, to obtain real-time insights for farmers. The geographic information system provides field data to farmers to make precise decisions regarding climate change, temperature, and soil conditions. Also, GIS is used to collect data regarding water availability, irrigation control, weather monitoring, crop monitoring, yield prediction, and livestock management. This data helps to improve decisions about harvesting times, crop market rate, and soil management. Thus, demand for GIS is increasing in the agriculture sector to predict climatic change and improve production.
