Top Growth Drivers in the Civilian Industrial Grade Drone Industry: What's Accelerating the Market?
The growth of the civilian industrial-grade drone market is expected to be driven by the escalating use of precision farming. Precision agriculture is a method of farm management that employs data analysis and technology to maximize crop output, minimize waste, and enhance resource efficiency. The growing use of precision agriculture is credited to the demand for immediate, highly detailed data required to make prompt and accurate farming judgments. Civilian industrial-grade drones offer key enhancements to precision agriculture by delivering high-definition overhead data, making them the ideal solutions for surveillance of extensive farming lands and crop health. They facilitate focused interventions by reducing manual field visits, thereby improving yields and boosting resource efficiency. For instance, the United States Government Accountability Office, a government organization based in the US, reported that 27% of US farms and ranches adopted precision agricultural techniques to manage their crops or livestock in 2023. As such, the escalating use of precision farming is stimulating the growth of the civilian industrial-grade drone market.
