As alternatives to flood irrigation are expensive for many farmers, NDrip Ltd. has created a substitute for flood or trench irrigation methods, which can lose up to 70% of the water yet are nevertheless utilized on 85% of all irrigated fields globally. PepsiCo claims that switching from flood irrigation to N-Drip's method can cut methane emissions by 78% and CO2 emissions by up to 83%.

Increasing Awareness and Education Propels the Drip Irrigation Market Growth

Adoption of drip irrigation around the world is being driven mostly by increasing awareness and education about its advantages. Farmers and agricultural communities now know the benefits of drip irrigation including conserving water, more abundant produce, and reduced expenditure on farm inputs. Government campaigns on promoting the use of drip irrigation have provided vital information to individuals in many parts of the world that have relied on traditional ways for too long.

Farmers understand how drip irrigation systems can be customized to their specific circumstances through workshops, training programs, and demonstrations that are tailored to their particular requirements. In regions with little water, the introduction of this technology has been particularly effective. Besides, with the information available on digital platforms and mobile applications, farmers are now able to make wise choices on whether or not they should go for drip irrigation.

In fact, in November 2023, Rivulis Irrigation Ltd. introduced its first-to-market Drip Irrigation Guide, including four modules. The program, aimed at enhancing yields and quality, was held by the Rivulis Knowledge Hub. The Knowledge Hub's user-friendly menu and search feature make it simple to find the precise drip irrigation problem or technical detail. It contains many often-needed formulas, including scheduling irrigation, calculating chemical requirements for maintenance, pump considerations, and determining the amount of water needed to meet water requirements for plants.

Expansion of High-Value Crop Cultivation Fuels Market Growth

The global demand for drip irrigation is greatly affected by increase in high-value crop production. High-value crops such as fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants need accurate water and nutrient management for their good growth and yield. Drip irrigation is highly appropriate for such crops as it provides water directly to their roots, thus making efficient use of water while minimizing risks related to infections that may arise as a result of excessive watering.

With increasing consumer demand for high-quality fresh produce, farmers have resorted to drip irrigation to boost their yields and profits. This method enables enhanced crop quality through constant and regulated water supply, which is extremely necessary for delicate plants that are commonly planted in dry areas. Furthermore, rising crop prices make drip irrigation systems more cost-effective for farmers, thus accelerating their adoption rate.

In July 2024, Orbia Netafim, a subsidiary of Netafim Ltd., collaborated with McCain Foods Limited to cultivate potatoes with drip irrigation. According to the field trials, drip increases crop yields from 4% to 23%, depending on annual rainfall circumstances, and reduces water usage by 20%. The goal of this collaboration is to support sustainable farming practices and provide farmers with the tools needed to adapt to climate change effects.

Commercial Usage Holds Large Market Share

In large agricultural operations, the use of drip irrigation systems in commercial use comprises greater market share due to their wider application. In these setups, especially where high-valued crops such as fruits, nuts, and vegetables are produced by commercial farms, effectiveness and productivity are crucial aspects, hence making drip irrigation very important for them. Using this method, water and nutrients can be delivered exactly where they are needed thus making crops grow better at lower water quantity and labor input.

Moreover, as resources in water-limited areas are scarce, big-scale farmers are installing drip irrigation systems in their farms. It is why these systems are particularly appealing for commercial applications as they can be tailored to suit specialized requisites of different plants and diverse extension measurements.

In August 2023, in an effort to improve irrigation efficiency and lower costs, Rain Bird Corporation unveiled a new line of rotors, 1100 series, for use on big commercial turf installations, sports fields, and stadiums. Compared to a conventional rotor system, the 11000 Series allows for homogeneous water distribution over a full 105-foot (32-meter) radius, allowing for greater irrigation coverage. Athletes are significantly less likely to be affected by the exposed diameter of 11000 Series Rotors, which is 2.7 inches (6.9 cm), during practice or competition.

Asia-Pacific Dominates Drip Irrigation Market

Globally, Asia-Pacific is the key region in the drip irrigation industry due to the region's expansive agricultural sector and urgent requirement for effective water management. India and China are leading the growth with their vast farmlands and problems related to water shortages. Hence, governments in these nations are supporting drip irrigation promotion even more through grants, incentives, and educational initiatives. For instance, in August 2024, in Akkurgan District of Tashkent, which is characterized by short water supply conditions, the European Union, and UNDP introduced a solar powered drip irrigation system for local households. With the help of solar panels, the system's water pump draws water from a 180-meter-deep vertical well. The irrigation system using solar energy is sufficient to irrigate 3 hectares of land and serve a total of 30 households.

In India, the government's movement towards micro-irrigation as an integral part of its overall agricultural reforms has resulted in the widespread acceptance of drip irrigation.
