土壤感測器市場 - 2023-2028 年預測Soil Sensor Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
土壤感測器是設計用於測量和監測土壤的各種參數和特性的設備,提供有關土壤成分和水分含量的有價值的資訊。這些感測器通常具有插入土壤的探針,可以收集溫度、pH、養分和濕度等關鍵因素的資料。土壤感測器有多種類型,例如土壤濕度感測器和溫度感測器,可用於農業、建築和採礦等領域,以評估土壤狀況、最佳化資源配置並確保環境永續性。農業部門的成長和採礦活動的增加預計將推動對土壤感測器的需求並促進市場成長。
隨著世界人口持續成長,對糧食生產的需求不斷增加,為了滿足這一需求,農民和農業經營者擴大採用依賴於準確資料和對土壤狀況的洞察的精準農業技術。土壤感測器提供有關水分含量、養分水準和 pH 平衡等關鍵參數的即時資訊,使農民能夠就灌溉、施肥和作物管理做出明智的決策。農民可以使用土壤感測器來最佳化資源分配,最大限度地減少水和肥料的浪費,並最大限度地提高作物產量。這些好處可提高生產力,並透過減少環境影響和促進土壤健康,促進永續農業實踐。農業產量的增加以及農民透過提高農作物產量獲得的經濟利益推動了對土壤感測器的需求。據印度品牌資產基金會稱,2023年印度糧食總產量將達到1.4992億噸。根據美國農業部 (USDA)2022年的報告,從 1948年到2019年,美國農業產量成長了 175%。2019年,農作物產值佔農業總產值的54%。2023年3月,日本國際協力事業團(JICA)與印度工業銀行有限公司簽署了高達130億日元的私營部門貸款協議。該貸款目的是改善印度農民獲得融資的機會並提高農業生產力。
採礦活動的增加增加了周邊地區土壤退化、污染和侵蝕的可能性。公司和監管機構擴大採取措施有效監測和控制土壤狀況,以減少採礦活動對環境的負面影響。土壤感測器提供有關土壤濕度、pH 值、養分水準和壓實度的即時資料,使採礦公司能夠追踪地上作業的影響。此類感測器在監測和評估土壤品質和健康方面也發揮著重要作用。採礦活動的增加和礦區土壤侵蝕的加劇預計將增加對土壤感測器的需求。根據物理研究所(IOP)2020年的一份報告,全球採礦活動對大片土地的擾動可能會使未受擾動地區的水土流失率增加數百倍,導致水土流失速度加快,損失估計為116,146.43噸/年。據美國地質調查局(USGS)統計,2019年中國在採礦業投資約1730億美元,用於改善礦產開發和生產,同期比較分別成長24%。
由於中國和印度等國家農業實踐的擴大和採礦活動的增加,預計亞太地區將主導市場。2022年,中國政府決定投資阿富汗採礦業,謀求對其礦產資源尤其是鋰礦的霸權。2021年10月,聯邦農業和農民福利部宣布將在15個主要州的343個選定地區免費分發820,600個種子迷你套件。這些積極的發展預計將增加對土壤感測器的需求,並進一步加速該區域市場的成長。
A soil sensor is a device designed to measure and monitor various parameters and characteristics of soil, providing valuable information about its composition and moisture content. These sensors are typically equipped with probes inserted into the soil, allowing them to collect data on important factors such as temperature, pH, nutrients, and moisture levels. Soil sensors are of various types, such as soil moisture and temperature sensors, which can be used in the agriculture, construction, and mining sectors to assess soil conditions, optimize resource allocation, and ensure environmental sustainability. The growing agricultural sector and increase in mining activities are anticipated to drive the demand for the soil sensor, thereby boosting market growth.
The demand for food production is increasing as the global population continues to expand, and to meet this demand, farmers and agricultural businesses are increasingly adopting precision agriculture techniques that rely on accurate data and insights about soil conditions. Soil sensors provide real-time information on essential parameters such as moisture content, nutrient levels, and pH balance, enabling farmers to make informed decisions about irrigation, fertilization, and crop management. Farmers can optimize resource allocation, minimize water and fertilizer wastage, and maximize crop yields using soil sensors. These benefits lead to increased productivity and contribute to sustainable agriculture practices by reducing environmental impact and promoting soil health. The increase in agricultural production and monetary benefits given to farmers to improve agriculture yield will propel the demand for soil sensors. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation in 2023, the total foodgrain production in India will reach 149.92 million tonnes in 2023. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) report in 2022, the US agricultural production grew up to 175% from 1948 to 2019. In 2019, crops accounted for 54 percent of the total value of agricultural output. On March 2023, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) signed a loan agreement with IndusInd Bank Limited to provide private-sector finance of up to 13 billion yen. This loan aims to improve access to finance for farmers and increase agricultural productivity in India.
There is a higher likelihood of soil degradation, contamination, and erosion in the surrounding areas with increased mining operations. Companies and regulatory bodies are increasingly adopting measures to monitor and manage soil conditions effectively to mitigate the negative environmental impact of mining activities. Soil sensors provide real-time data on soil's moisture content, pH levels, nutrient levels, and compaction, enabling mining companies to track the impact of their operations on the ground. Such sensors also play a crucial role in monitoring and assessing the quality and health of soil. The rising mining activities and increasing soil erosion in mining areas will boost the demand for soil sensors. According to the Institute of Physics (IOP) 2020 report, global mining activities in disturbing large areas of land may increase soil erosion rates up to several hundred times greater than from undisturbed areas, and it estimated a material loss of 116,146.43 tons/year due to erosion. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in 2019, China invested about $173 billion in the mining sector to improve the development and production of minerals, showing a year-on-year increase of 24% respectively.
The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market due to the expanding agricultural practices in countries like China and India and increasing mining activities. In 2022, the Chinese government decided to invest in Afghanistan's mining sector and seek dominance over its mineral resources, particularly its lithium deposits. In October 2021, the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare of India announced that 820,600 seed mini-kits would be distributed free of cost in 343 identified districts across 15 major producing states, which would boost production and productivity by speeding up the seed replacement rate and subsequently helped in increasing farmers' income. Such positive developments will boost the demand for soil sensors, further accelerating their regional market growth.
