Global Smart Tractor Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Type (Full Autonomy, Supervise Autonomy), By End-Users (Farmer, Agriculture Companies), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

The global smart tractor market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 19.83% between 2025 to 2030.

Tractors are used in agriculture for various purposes, starting from levelling the field to harvesting and transporting the products to the market. The prime reason which is expected to drive the market growth of smart tractors is growing automation in the agriculture sector. The rise in automation in the agriculture sector has encouraged the adoption of tractors for numerous operations. Growing population and spreading urbanization have limited the land available for cultivation, pressurizing the farmers to produce more output. Farmers hence turn to automation for speedier operations and better productivity. Furthermore, technological advancement and the launch of new products are further expected to support the market.

The North American region dominates the market for smart tractor consumption owing to higher agriculture investment, financially better farmers, and state-of-art infrastructure in the region.

Based on geography, the global smart tractor market is segmented into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific regions. The North American region is the largest consumer of smart tractors due to higher investment in the sector. Farmers in the region are financially better and more aware of the latest farm technology as compared to other regions which have resulted in higher adoption of smart tractors. Furthermore, state-of-art agriculture infrastructure in the region is accompanied by technological advancement and the launch of new production and their early adoption also plays an advantage in the market growth. R&D and innovation have supported the market for electric smart tractors which further offers significant market opportunities.

The Asia Pacific region is a notable producer of smart tractors owning to the availability of cheaper labour and raw materials. Moreover, governments' support for the manufacturing sector encourages the production of automobiles, including tractors, which is expected to support the market. Further, a rise in investment accompanied by increasing awareness is expected to open opportunities for the market. 

Growth Factors

• Increasing agriculture expenditure is expected

One of the key reasons which are anticipated to drive lucrative growth in the global smart tractor market is rising agriculture expenditure. The agriculture sector is the backbone of every economy. The surging population coupled with mushrooming urban sector has decreased the land available for agriculture. Farmers hence turn to automation for effective production. The government supports the sector through budget expenditure. Increasing expenditure by governments is expected to drive market growth. the Government of India, for instance, increased the agriculture budget for 2020-21 by 32% to Rs 134,400 crores.

Recent Developments

• March 2021, CNH invested in a US-based Monarch Tractor to develop electric smart tractors.
• October 2020, Partnership. Japan-based tractor manufacturer, Kabuto, partnered with US-based Nvidia, aiming to develop self-driving smart tractors.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Smart Tractor Market

The coronavirus pandemic negatively impacted the global smart tractor market. The outspread of the virus resulted in a halt across the automotive industry which hampered supply. Furthermore, trade restrictions affected the farm product sales, hence impacting the market.
