Growing demand for farm dairy products is driving the market growth
Market CAGR for milking robots is driven by the rising demand for dairy products. The growing consumption of dairy products and the shift in customer preference from non-veg to dairy products for protein augmentation. Due to cold chain logistics and sophisticated retail facilities, dairy products are easily accessible, supporting the market’s growth. By considerably increasing milk production, milking automation technologies such as milking robots can help dairy farms decrease labor expenditures. Using milking robots improves the number of times an individual cow may be milked, improving yield while decreasing manual labor needs.
Additionally, the milking robots are specifically designed in a way that best suits the preference and needs of the farmer. Also, each cow determines her rhythm at the time of milking, the success of which highly depends on the willingness and comfort of the cow. Owing to this, the robot is developed with an entirely cow-focused approach. The robot ensures that the cow is calm, relaxed, and free from the visual distraction of arm movement, inspiring her to milk often and fast. These robots' customization and operational efficiency will grow in the projected period. As a result, it is anticipated that demand for milking robots will increase throughout the projection period due to the rising demand for milk and advanced technology. Thus, driving the Milking Robots market revenue.
The Milking Robots Market segmentation, based on offering, includes hardware, software, and services. The hardware segment generated the maximum market revenue. The milking robot was developed to improve the efficiency and productivity of the milking process due to robot suppliers wishing to keep the data to themselves; it used to be a stand-alone system. However, most robots have become compatible with a wide range of other technologies and devices over the years, and data flows between systems are being encouraged, which is a positive development. Integrating AMS technology with other systems and sensor technology improves cow health and welfare, allowing farmers to respond faster and make better, more informed choices.
The global Robot Milking Market segmentation, based on system type, includes single-stall units, multi-stall units, and automated milking rotary. The multi-stall unit segment has dominated the market due to rising global demand for milk and dairy commodities. A multi-stall is customized to simultaneously conduct the milking process. Multi-stall unit fastens the operational workflow with minimum cost. Furthermore, small and medium-sized organizations ideally prefer multi-stall to generate an early return on investment, decrease capital expenses, and gain optimized efficiency.
The global Milking Robot Market segmentation, based on herd size, includes, below 100, between 100 & 1000, and above 1000. The between 100 & 1000 category dominates the maximum market revenue due to the rising global demand for milk and milk products. Also, medium-sized dairy farms are paying attention to installing rotary or multi-stall milking robots to enhance productivity and efficiency and gain maximum yield through herds.
The Milking Robots Market segmentation, based on actuator type, includes pneumatic and electric actuators. The pneumatic actuator category generated the most income due to its speed and dependability. Pneumatic actuators are a specific type of actuators that are used to convert compressed air’s energy into motion. Different manufacturers provide several types of pneumatic actuators, some of which turn compressed air energy into rotating motion and others into linear motion.
Additionally, the electric actuator type is anticipated to be the fastest-growing in the projected period due to its growing efficiency and low power consumption.
