BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the India Drip Irrigation Market size at USD 1.04 billion in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects the India Drip Irrigation Market size to grow at a significant CAGR of 12.83% reaching a value of USD 2.15 billion by 2029. Major growth drivers for the India Drip Irrigation Market include increasing trend in greenhouse vegetable production, coupled with a growing emphasis on sustainable and precision agriculture practices. India heavily relies on agriculture, predominantly rain-fed. It creates a ripe environment for promoting drip irrigation in the market. Rajasthan, a northwestern Indian state facing severe water scarcity, has witnessed a significant uptake of drip irrigation due to its adaptability. Indian farmers are increasingly urged to adopt drip irrigation systems in open fields to optimize water usage and enhance agricultural yield. The prevalence of open-field drip irrigation exceeds that of greenhouses across the country. Notably, greenhouses employing drip irrigation are primarily utilized for horticultural production, showcasing a growing inclination among farmers toward greenhouse cultivation, driven by the benefits of year-round production. As a result, such aspects are expected to propel the India Drip Irrigation Market forward during the forecast period. However, high initial and maintenance cost of large-scale drip irrigation systems and increasing issues regarding quality of water available for irrigation are anticipated to restrain the overall market growth during the period in analysis.
Impact of COVID-19 on India Drip Irrigation Market
COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the India Drip Irrigation Market. Disruptions in the supply chain, labor shortages, and economic uncertainties have led to challenges in the adoption of drip irrigation systems. The pandemic-induced lockdowns and restrictions affected the manufacturing and distribution of drip irrigation components, causing delays and supply chain inefficiencies. Farmers faced difficulties in accessing and affording the necessary equipment, hindering the widespread implementation of drip irrigation. As the agricultural sector strives to recover, addressing the aftermath of COVID-19 and revitalizing support for drip irrigation initiatives becomes imperative for sustaining and enhancing India's agricultural productivity.
