HAY AND FORAGE EQUIPMENT MARKET OVERVIEW

The global hay and forage equipment market size was projected at USD 9.26 billion in 2024 and is expected to hit USD 11.87 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 2.8% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

Hay and forage equipment refers to the machines used to collect hay, which is dried grass or other plants used as animal feed. Hay is cut and dried before being stored for later use. Hay and forage equipment such as balers, mowers, rakes, tedders, and wind-rowers are available on the market. The increasing demand for equipments of hay and forage due to the global increase in livestock population can be credited to the market's growth. Furthermore, factors such as technological developments and increased awareness about animal husbandry are driving the growth of this industry.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Adoption of Digital Solutions and Government Support Resulted in Increased Market Share

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The epidemic has pushed the introduction of digital technology in agriculture, particularly the use of precision agriculture and IoT sensors in hay and fodder equipment. Farmers looked for ways to remotely monitor and manage their equipment, minimising the requirement for physical presence in the field. The epidemic underlined the significance of minimising agricultural labour dependency. Farmers sought for ways to automate and mechanise their hay and forage operations as labour shortages became more acute in some areas due to COVID-19-related constraints and health concerns. Governments in several countries provided financial assistance to the agriculture sector during the pandemic, which may have influenced equipment purchasing decisions by giving financial incentives or assistance for equipment investments.

LATEST TRENDS

IoT Integration, Automation and Improved Crop Management to Soar Up Market Potentially

Precision agriculture technologies and IoT (Internet of Things) sensors are progressively being integrated into the hay and forage equipment business. This enables farmers to remotely monitor and manage their equipment, optimise agricultural productivity, and eliminate waste. Automation is making its way into hay and fodder machinery. Autonomous or semi-autonomous equipment can conduct operations like as mowing, raking, and baling more efficiently and precisely. Modern equipment is outfitted with smart sensors and software to assist farmers in more effectively managing their crops. This incorporates harvesting and forage quality optimisation features such as yield monitoring, moisture sensing, and real-time data analytics.
