Dairy Herd Management Market To Reach $7.48 Billion By 2030

Dairy Herd Management Market Growth & Trends

The global dairy herd management market is expected to reach a market size of USD 7.48 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR 10.2% from 2024 to 2030,according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising populations and changing dietary habits are driving increased demand for dairy products. With growing per capita income, individuals are spending more on nutritious foods, including proteins and carbohydrates. As milk and milk products are primary protein sources, their demand is projected to rise in the coming years. To meet this escalating demand, dairy farmers are transitioning from manual operations to automated systems, encompassing waste management, environmental control, and the use of mobile apps for managing cattle and dairy production.

The dairy industry lagged behind other sectors in adopting robotics due to limited knowledge about the technology and the low per capita income of dairy farm owners. Despite this, there are numerous potential applications for robotics in dairy farming. One of the most effective and successful uses is milking robots or automatic milking systems, which allow for the extraction of milk from dairy animals without human labor. The adoption of these automated systems is anticipated to drive growth in the dairy herd management market.

Advanced software and hardware components, such as temperature controllers, behavior monitoring cameras, and sensors, used in dairy herd management have minimal error rates. Utilizing these components alongside integrated historical databases helps improve dairy production output. The benefits of dairy herd management during calving and pregnancy, including health and behavior monitoring and medication tracking, are expected to drive market growth in the coming years.

However, manufacturers have faced challenges in integrating these health-related operational improvements into mainstream dairy farming practices. Despite past efforts to introduce these technologies, small-scale farmers have frequently rejected them due to a reluctance to adopt new technology, often stemming from traditional mindsets or a preference for investing in new livestock to boost production rather than investing in technological advancements.
