Further, the report states that farm income is a major determinant of the adoption of precision farming services. The farm income in the U.S. has been almost stagnant in the last couple of years. With the reduction in bulk commodity prices of grains and feeds and an increase in fertilizer and seed prices, farmers are faced with pressure on their margin.

A related report for U.S. region published in July 2015 and titled “Precision Farming Market in the US 2015-2019” says the U.S. is a significant producer and exporter of certain agricultural crops, such as corn and soybeans, and thus plays an important part in the global food supply chain. However, the area of arable land in the U.S. has been stagnant, limiting food production potential. Farmers are thus facing pressure to maximize production under strict limitations and are seeking out progressive techniques to make their farmlands more efficient. These factors, collectively, are expected to drive the popularity of precision farming technologies in the market, as they allow farmers to manage their lands more effectively and thus increase production in a sustainable manner.
