The global market for soil moisture sensors is experiencing significant growth propelled by the increasing adoption of these sensors in both the sports and agricultural sectors. They are crucial tools for ensuring the optimal water content levels in fields and turfs. This demand stems from the vital role soil moisture plays in water infiltration, necessitating consistent monitoring. Consequently, the market is being driven by a growing awareness of soil health concerns and the need for effective water management practices.

The digitalization of farming relies heavily on sensors, particularly those measuring rainfall, water levels, soil moisture, and livestock data, both on-site and via drones. Soil moisture sensors, utilizing properties like dielectric constant and electrical resistance, are pivotal in various sectors like construction, mining, and especially agriculture. Turf managers increasingly employ soil sensors to maintain turf quality, leveraging precise water content measurements for optimal growth. Water content directly impacts sports performance, influencing factors like ball bounce, making accurate measurement crucial for turf management. The sports industry's growth, spurred by entertainment demand and government investments in sports infrastructure, further propels the adoption of soil sensors. Notably, countries such as the U.S. and Australia prioritize such investments to ensure controlled grass growth on sports fields, underlining the expanding market for soil moisture sensors.

In 2023, North America dominated the global soil moisture sensors market due to a significant presence of manufacturers within the region. Asia Pacific registered the fastest CAGR of 16.1% from 2024 to 2030. Changes in climatic conditions have had an adverse impact on soil conditions in the region. The resulting need to monitor soil moisture content at regular intervals is driving the adoption of soil moisture sensors, especially among farmers in the region. The industry participants in the region are making significant investments. South America is expected to register considerable growth in the coming years owing to the increasing use of soil moisture sensors to prevent soil degradation and achieve optimum consumption of water resources. The main causes of degradation in the region include deforestation, water erosion, and intense application of agrochemicals.
