The Latin America pre-harvest market was estimated to be worth around USD 6.63 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 9.26 billion by 2029, growing at the CAGR of 6.93% from 2024 to 2029.
Farm operations are timely performed and the quality of agricultural commodities produced by the use of machinery is better. Further, the workload is reduced and also it brings about a change in the characteristics of agricultural practices.The Agriculture industry is presently facing many challenges: producing more food to feed the rapidly growing population with a waning labour force. Without the use of agricultural equipment, it is likely to become very difficult to sustain the needs of this growing population. However, lately there was innovation in chemicals, fertilizers, and seeds which empowered the agricultural producers to try to meet the steadily rising demands of the world population. The use of pre-harvest equipment is likely to help the farmers in improving their production capacities to reduce the widening gap between demand and supply of agricultural produce. But in spite of such innovations in agricultural productivity, the challenges for the agricultural industry to supply the growing global economy with adequate supplies of agriculture are greater than ever before.
The tillage and planting equipment are the major segments capturing nearly 60% of the total market share. The production of self-propelled equipment has shown incredible growth in the last two decades because of its increased use by the farmers, facilitated by simplicity in the application.The Planting Equipment accounts for 30% of the total market. Steadily increasing use of pre-harvest equipment in order to increase production capacity and efficiency is the cause of the observed market growth. Moreover, increasing awareness among farmers and several government initiatives especially in developing economies is anticipated to increase the demand for market in the coming few years.
The Latin America Pre-Harvest Market is driven by the linked advantages such as enhanced farm yield and lessening in labour requirement. Other factors propelling the demand of the industry include increased consumption of food due to the population growth, augmented farm mechanization level and rising income of middle class farmers in developing nations (increase in exports). Additionally, several government initiatives and subsidiaries provided by them, especially in developing economies are projected to augment Latin America pre-harvest market throughout the forecast period. But still, the lack of awareness and hefty cost of farm equipment, are the major challenges in the growth of the market. Primary restraining factors for agricultural equipment market are the small and fragmented land holdings in various parts of the Latin America.
