Production Agriculture Market Report 2026

The production agriculture market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $179.48 billion in 2025 to $192.32 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise in global food demand, early adoption of mechanized farming equipment, increasing livestock productivity requirements, growth in sustainable farming initiatives, expansion of commercial crop farming.

The production agriculture market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $255.88 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing use of AI-based farm analytics, rising adoption of iot-enabled farm systems, expansion of cloud-based agricultural platforms, demand for automation in large farms, growth in precision-driven livestock and aquaculture management. Major trends in the forecast period include increased adoption of advanced crop and livestock monitoring, growing use of automated farm machinery and tools, rising demand for integrated farm management platforms, expansion of efficient resource utilization practices, growing emphasis on high-productivity farming systems.

The growing adoption of modern agricultural methods is projected to drive the expansion of the production agriculture market in the future. Modern agricultural methods involve techniques that boost productivity and sustainability through innovations such as genetically modified seeds and organic farming practices. This rise is largely fueled by the need for higher crop yields, better resistance to pests and diseases, and improved sustainability. These methods enhance safety in production agriculture by integrating advanced technologies like automated machinery, precision farming tools, and safety monitoring systems, which minimize the risk of accidents and improve overall efficiency. For instance, in July 2024, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported that approximately 90% of corn and cotton fields in the U.S. were planted with genetically modified seeds corn with herbicide-tolerant traits and cotton with insect-resistant traits. Additionally, in May 2024, the Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs indicated that the total area of land farmed organically in the UK reached 498,000 hectares in 2023. Thus, the increasing adoption of modern agricultural methods is driving the growth of the production agriculture market.

Leading companies in the production agriculture market are focusing on developing biological crop protection solutions, such as biofungicides, to enhance crop health and sustainability while minimizing environmental impact. Biofungicides are biological agents used to combat fungal diseases in plants, typically derived from natural organisms or their byproducts. For instance, in August 2023, FMC India Private Limited, an India-based agricultural sciences firm, launched ENTAZIA, an advanced biological crop protection product made with Bacillus subtilis. This innovative product provides an effective and eco-friendly way for farmers to protect their crops from fungi, particularly bacterial leaf blight in rice, which can significantly impact yield and quality. ENTAZIA represents a sustainable approach to crop protection while maintaining environmental integrity.

In April 2025, Taylor Farms, a US-based producer of ready-to-eat salads and fresh foods, acquired FarmWise for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Taylor Farms aims to strengthen its technological capabilities in precision farming and automation to lower labor costs and enhance its sustainable crop-production processes. FarmWise is a US-based agricultural robotics company that provides precision weeding and thinning solutions used in production agriculture.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs on imported agricultural machinery, sensors, and digital farm management tools have increased operational and procurement costs for production agriculture, especially impacting automated machinery, irrigation systems, and precision farming tools in regions that rely heavily on imports such as Asia-Pacific and Latin America. These tariffs reduce affordability and slow adoption across large, medium, and small farms. However, they also encourage domestic manufacturing, support regional innovation in agri-tech solutions, and strengthen local supply chains, creating long-term resilience in production agriculture technologies.
