The “Soil Moisture Sensor to 2025 by Type (Volumetric Soil Moisture Sensor and Soil Water Potential Sensor), End-user Verticals (Agriculture, Sports Turf, Landscaping and Ground Care, Forestry and Others) – Global Analysis and Forecast” The scope of study involves understanding on the factors responsible for this growth of Soil Moisture Sensor market along with the estimates and forecasts of the revenue and market share analysis and also spots the significant Soil Moisture Sensor players in the market and their key developments.

Soil Moisture Market to 2025 – Global Analysis and Forecast by Type, End-user vertical, Soil Moisture Sensor market is expected to grow US$ 288.3 Mn by 2025 from US$ 99.3 Mn in 2016. Soil Moisture Sensor is used to measure the water content in the soil. The measurement of soil water potential is the measurement of the amount of energy available in the soil to do work. Or, to put it more intuitively, it is the amount of energy required for a plant to perform work in order to extract moisture from the soil. Several laboratory and field measurement approaches including remote sensing are available to measure soil moisture content, soil moisture sensor has been identified as one of the most efficient technique to optimize irrigation and increase farm productivity. The soil moisture sensor can reduce outdoor water consumption up to 62% over traditional irrigation methods. Government push towards utilization of advanced irrigation techniques is expected to increase the adoption of soil moisture sensor. In order to protect farmers from growing stress of extreme weather and climate change, private and government regulatory bodies are taking significant measures to promote the use of advanced irrigation techniques. Further, product accessibility to channel for advertising and distribution is also influencing the growth of the market. For instance, NGOs are working in closely with small-scale farmers to enhance agricultural productivity by implementing modern tools and technology and providing training in modern farming practices.
 
The global soil moisture sensor market by geography is segmented into five regions namely North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. North America is expected to account for the largest share of the global soil moisture sensor market in 2016, followed by Europe. Germany and UK being two key countries in Europe region which will lead soil moisture sensor market in this region and is also expected to continue its dominance throughout the forecast period from 2017 to 2025. The report profiles key players such as The Toro Company, Acclima Inc., Decagon Devices, Campbell Scientific, Inc., and Imko Micromodultechnik Gmbh.
