유축기 시장 : 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석과 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Milking Machine Market was valued at USD 4.39 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% to reach USD 8.18 billion by 2034.

As rural workforces age and urban migration continues, the agricultural sector is facing significant labor challenges. These dynamics are pushing dairy farmers worldwide to turn to milking automation to maintain productivity and profitability. Manual milking not only demands skilled labor but also increases the risk of inconsistencies, poor hygiene, and animal stress. In contrast, automated and robotic systems reduce human error, enhance animal welfare, and improve overall milk quality. These machines offer consistent milking patterns, help control mastitis, and ensure the cleanliness of the milking process, aligning both animal health standards and modern dairy farm needs. Automation is no longer a luxury-it's a necessity for sustainable dairy operations. With advanced technologies such as AI-driven tracking systems and IoT-enabled sensors, farmers now have real-time insights into herd health and equipment performance. This data-centric approach allows for timely interventions and greater control over farm management. As a result, smart automation is transforming dairy production into a more precise, productive, and sustainable industry on a global scale.

The automated milking systems segment generated notable revenues in 2024 owing to their superior efficiency and round-the-clock operation. These systems function independently and deliver uniform suction, timing, and yield, significantly improving both the quantity and quality of milk. Robotic milking units have become particularly attractive to farms dealing with labor shortages or looking to scale up production. These devices reduce manual intervention, minimize stress on livestock, and are equipped with AI and IoT capabilities that allow farmers to monitor cow behavior, milk output, and equipment efficiency remotely. This level of control ensures better herd health, helps prevent infections, and supports strict compliance with food safety guidelines, making automated systems essential for modern dairy facilities.

The portable milking machines segment held 48.38% share in 2024 and is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 8% from 2025 to 2034. Their versatility, affordability, and ease of operation make them highly attractive to small and mid-sized dairy farms, especially in developing regions. These lightweight units are ideal for operations where livestock is scattered or grazing across multiple pastures. For farms that cannot afford expensive, fixed systems, portable milking machines offer a cost-effective alternative to reduce labor dependence while maintaining efficient production. Their mobile nature also enables their use across various animal types and locations, adding to their appeal in regions with mixed-grazing models and decentralized farm layouts.

U.S. Milking Machine Market held 73.8% share and generated USD 898.2 million in 2024. Rising labor costs, limited access to skilled farmhands, and an aging rural demographic are pushing American dairy farms to adopt more automation. Large-scale commercial dairies dominate the market in the U.S., and as such, they require high-efficiency solutions to ensure profitability. Smart milking systems are becoming widespread due to their ability to increase milk yield while ensuring quality. IoT-enabled technologies further support these systems, allowing farmers to track the health, milk production, and environmental conditions of their animals in real time. This tech-forward approach supports the country's emphasis on food safety, traceability, and animal welfare.

Prominent players shaping the Global Milking Machine Market include DeLaval, Boumatic, Lely, GEA Group, Fullwood Packo, Afimilk, Lusna, Agrifac Machinery, Prompt Dairy Tech, AMS-Galaxy USA, Melasty, Milkplan Farming Technologies, Kanters Holland, S. A. Christensen, and Yue Jiang Mechanical. To gain a competitive edge, companies operating in the milking machine market are focusing on product innovation, real-time monitoring features, and AI-integrated systems. Market leaders are investing heavily in automation and robotics to offer solutions that are scalable for both small farms and large dairy operations. Strategic collaborations with technology firms have helped companies develop IoT-enabled systems that offer health tracking, yield forecasting, and automated cleaning. Many firms are expanding globally by partnering with regional distributors and tailoring products to local farming needs.
