The center pivot irrigation system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.61 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing water scarcity challenges, rising adoption of smart irrigation technologies, expansion of climate-resilient farming practices, growing demand for energy-efficient irrigation systems, increasing integration of digital farm management tools. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of precision irrigation systems, rising use of remote monitoring and control panels, growing demand for large-field irrigation solutions, expansion of fertigation capabilities, enhanced focus on water-use efficiency.

The rise in agricultural productivity is expected to drive the growth of the center-pivot irrigation system market in the coming years. Agricultural productivity refers to the efficiency of producing crops and other agricultural outputs relative to inputs such as labor, land, and water. As farm output increases, there is a greater demand for advanced irrigation technologies that provide consistent hydration, optimize water usage, and support crop development at all growth stages. Center-pivot irrigation systems offer precise water distribution, adjustable heights as crops mature, and contribute to higher yields, making them vital for meeting expanding production needs. For example, in December 2024, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), a Canada-based specialized UN agency, reported that global primary crop production reached 9.9 billion tonnes in 2023, a 3% increase from 2022. Thus, the growing demand for efficient agricultural productivity is fueling the center-pivot irrigation system market.

Key companies in the center-pivot irrigation systems market are focusing on developing advanced irrigation solutions to expand their market presence and meet evolving agricultural needs efficiently. Advanced irrigation solutions include innovative techniques and technologies that optimize water use and enhance crop productivity. For instance, in January 2023, Nelson Irrigation Corporation, a US-based irrigation equipment manufacturer, launched its latest website, offering a comprehensive guide on center-pivot systems, recognized as highly efficient, effective, and cost-effective mechanized irrigation solutions. Supported by Nelson, center-pivot irrigation can be customized to suit a wide variety of crops, climates, soil types, and farming practices.
