Dairy Herd Management Market 2019 Deep Analysis of Current Trends and Future Demand by Top Key Players By 2025
The global dairy
herd management market size is expected to reach USD 3.8 billion by 2025, registering a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period, according to a new report
by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising awareness among dairy farm owners toward
improvement and optimization of production methods to decrease operational cost
is anticipated to drive the market.
Increasing global population and changing dietary habits are
increasing demand for milk and milk products. The per capita income of
individuals is increasing and as a result, they are spending more on foods that
are rich in proteins, carbohydrates, and other vital nutrients. Milk and milk
products being a major source of protein, their demand is expected to rise in
the upcoming years. In order to cater to this increasing demand, farmers are
upgrading manual operations to automated ones, such as waste and environment
management, and increasing usage of mobile apps for managing cattle and dairy
production.
The dairy industry has been lagging behind, as compared to other
industrial sectors, in the adoption of robots. This can be attributed to
limited knowledge about the technology and low per capita income of dairy farm
owners. However, there is a wide range of potential applications of robotics in
this industry. Milking robots or automatic milking systems are one of the
effective and successful applications of robotics in this space. Robotic
milking refers to extraction of milk from dairy animals without human labor.
The implementation of automated systems in this industry is expected to boost
the market.
Major players operating in the market include Alta Genetics Inc.; Dairymaster; Delaval Inc.; Afimilk; BouMatic LLC;
Fullwood Packo; GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft; Lely; SCR Dairy Inc.; Sum-it
Computer Systems; Valley Agricultural Software; and Zoetis. In order to
capture a larger market share, key market incumbents are undertaking
initiatives and adopting strategies such as entering into partnerships,
engaging in mergers and acquisitions and maintaining competitive pricing.

Advanced software and hardware
components such as temperature controllers and behavior monitoring cameras and
sensors used in dairy herd management have minimal error probability. Use of
these components in combination with integrated historical database helps in
improving production output. Advantages of dairy herd management during calving
and pregnancy, such as health and behavior monitoring and medication tracking,
are also expected to support market growth in the upcoming years.
However,
manufacturers have struggled to integrate these health-related operational
improvements into mainstream dairy farming practices. While attempts were made
in the past to introduce new these technologies, small-scale farmers have been
skeptical to use new technologies and have rejected the same. This arises from
an orthodox mindset or focus on buying new livestock to increase production
rather than investing in new technology.
Further key findings
from the report suggest:
·
The global market is anticipated to exhibit
a CAGR of 6.6% over the forecast period, on account of growing emphasis of end
users on improvement and optimization of dairy operations
·
By product, milk management systems are
anticipated to exhibit steady growth through 2025 thanks to increasing adoption
and deployment in dairy farms
·
On the basis of end user, large-scale farms
will register higher growth compared to cooperative, small, and medium scale
ones owing to associated cost of installation of such solutions
·
Asia Pacific is anticipated to exhibit
lucrative growth over the forecast period owing to changing preference of dairy
farm owners toward automation in the industry. Moreover, favorable government
initiatives to increase production in countries such as China and India are
expected to boost the market
·
The dairy herd management market is
fragmented in nature. Major players include DeLaval, Inc.; GEA Group AG; Lely
Holding S.A.R.L.; and Zoetis Inc.
Datafication
in dairy farms provides farmers with quantifiable information to continuously
inspect and respond to farm operations and livestock behavior, positively
contributing to improving farm efficiency and profitability. Herd management is
becoming increasingly prevalent and has indicated the beginning of a broader
trend in dairy operation automation and livestock management. Dairy companies
are taking advantage of this trend, adding value to herd management for use in
a variety of applications related to cattle and livestock management. Automated
milking parlors, smartphone data applications, micro-sensor technology, and
robotics are all likely to become commonplace on dairy farms over the next few
years.In the long term, growth in productivity becomes a necessity for the
survival of a dairy farm. When the price of milk is low, farmers need to
exercise even tighter controls on production costs to maximize returns from
fixed factors of production such as electricity. Application of automated
technologies is a growing trend in the dairy industry and plays a crucial role
in the future prospects of this market. The automatic systems most commonly
used in this industry include automatic identification, milking, detection of
estrus, feeding, detection of births, and other farm operations. Adoption of
these systems has significantly reduced labor demand and increased the
productivity of dairy farms.
