The demand for agricultural robots is growing owing to the increasing applications in smart farming areas including precision crop farming, livestock monitoring and management, indoor farming, aquaculture, forestry, and orchids, among others. Farmers across the world are using semi-autonomous tractors to reduce multiple trips for farm monitoring, hence reducing crop damage, and fuel consumption. Moreover, there has been a surge in the utilization of milking robots by livestock producers. Automatic imaging, sensing, handling, and processing of agricultural produce for harvesting and weeding is becoming common with the introduction of picking robots in the agricultural industry.

1.2 Americas Smart Farming Market Research Methodology
The research methodology design adopted for this specific study includes a mix of data collected from
primary and secondary sources. The research exhaustively use both primary sources (in-house experts,
industry leaders and market players) and secondary sources (a host of paid and unpaid databases) along
with analytical tools to build forecast and predictive models.
Primary Data Sources
The primary sources involve the industry experts from the Americas smart farming market. In the extensive
primary research process undertaken for this study, the primary sources include industry experts and
key executives from prominent companies, research organizations and agricultural associations. All such
resources have been interviewed to obtain and verify both the qualitative and the quantitative aspects of
this research study.
The key data points taken from primary sources include:
• Validation and triangulation of all the numbers and graphs
• Validation of report’s segmentation and key qualitative findings
• Understanding the competitive landscape
• Validation of the numbers of the various market segments for smart farming
• Percentage split for country analysis
The research includes interviews with participants throughout the value chain. An extensive questionnaire
was shared to get insights from the experts who didn’t participate in discussions. In some cases where
information was not available, Delphi method was used to arrive at mutual consent with BIS consultants.
Secondary Data Sources
The research study involves the usage of extensive secondary sources such as databases, company
websites, and annual reports, among others. It also makes use of databases such as Hoovers, Bloomberg,
Business-week, and Factiva to collect useful information for an extensive, market-oriented, and commercial
study of the global market. Secondary research was done in order to obtain crucial information about the
industry’s value chain, market’s monetary chain, total pool of key players, and the prevalent solutions and
application segments. The following figure exhibits key secondary data sources considered.
