The Story

The evolution of agricultural equipment has sped now more than ever since the agriculture industry keeps seeking ways to enhance productivity by adopting sustainable practices. As the global population continues to grow there is an increasing demand to improve farming processes such as planting and harvesting. Research Nester observed that, we will need to produce over 65% more food by 2050, and the reality is that the industry hasn't seen a lot of innovation. The comprehensive report on the global agricultural machinery market provided to the client stated that the market registered revenue of USD 203 Billion in 2018 and is expected to reach over USD 580 Billion in 2035. The statistics also reported that there are favorable government policies present around the world for a variety of projects that aim to increase the demand for agricultural machinery. However, the client experienced several difficulties to enter into the global competitive market of agricultural machinery which are mentioned below:

  • 1. The cost of developing innovative agricultural machinery requires high initial cost as it involves high research & development costs.
