Agriculture Robots Market Report 2026

The agriculture robots market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $10.23 billion in 2025 to $12.58 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing labor shortages in agriculture, rising adoption of controlled environment farming, expansion of large-scale commercial farms, improvements in robotic hardware reliability, growing availability of farm automation solutions.

The agriculture robots market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.2 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in autonomous farming technologies, rising demand for precision agriculture solutions, expansion of indoor and vertical farming operations, growing integration of robotics with farm management software, increasing focus on productivity optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing deployment of autonomous field robots, rising use of drone-based crop monitoring, growing adoption of robotic harvesting systems, expansion of ai-enabled farm automation, enhanced integration of data-driven decision support.

The increase in the adoption of automation technology is driving the growth of the agriculture robots market going forward. Automation refers to technology that enables processes to function with minimal human intervention by using programmed commands and automatic feedback to ensure accurate execution. In agriculture, automation technology supports the development of more efficient tools for farm management and the execution of daily agricultural tasks to improve crop and livestock production. In dairy farming, automation enhances profitability, animal health, working conditions, and milk quality by deploying robots for milking, monitoring cattle health, conducting labor-intensive tasks such as feeding, and more. For example, in May 2023, according to Formstack, a US-based software company, 76% of organizations used automation to streamline daily workflows, 58% automated data and reporting for planning purposes, and 36% used automation to support regulatory compliance. Therefore, the increase in the adoption of automation technology is propelling the expansion of the agriculture robots market.

Major companies operating in the agriculture robots market are focusing on developing advanced autonomous mobility solutions to improve operational efficiency and reduce reliance on manual labor. Autonomous mobility incorporates wire-guided and self-driving capabilities to execute tasks with limited human intervention while navigating complex farming environments. For instance, in February 2025, Daedong, a South Korea-based agricultural machinery manufacturer, introduced the agricultural transport robot RT100, available in both wire-guided and autonomous versions. The RT100 reduces manual effort in fruit harvesting and transport by following users at a preset distance. It can rotate 360 degrees to maneuver through narrow orchard paths, operates quietly without vibrations or emissions, and is suitable for indoor tasks. The robot features a four-wheel drive system designed for rough terrain, a maximum loading capacity of 300 kg, and lift and dump functions. Additionally, its autonomous driving mode, configurable through a user settings menu, enhances efficiency and addresses labor shortages, contributing to improved productivity in modern agriculture.

In October 2023, Rockwell Automation, Inc., a US-based provider of industrial automation and information technology, acquired Clearpath Robotics for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enables Rockwell Automation, Inc. to strengthen its technology portfolio, expand its capabilities in industrial automation, and enhance its competitive position in the market. Clearpath Robotics is a Canada-based robotics company that manufactures autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).
