Agriculture Rope Market

Market Overview

The Global Agriculture Rope Market size is slated to grow substantially at a CAGR of approximately 3.9% during forecast period.

Agricultural rope is a type of ropes specifically designed for agricultural use. These ropes are used for pulling, lifting, or moving heavy objects. They are typically made from durable materials such as nylon (Polyamide), polyester (Terylene), Polyethylene, Hemp, Manila, Jute, Sisal, Cotton and polypropylene and may be coated in a waterproofing material to protect them from the elements. These ropes have good tensile strength.

Agricultural ropes can be an important part of a farm's operations, as they can help reduce the amount of manual labor required to complete certain tasks. Polypropylene can absorb moisture quickly and is resistant to water, making it an ideal material for industrial applications. There are wide range of applications and industries where agriculture rope is being used including barrier/ garden decking, tree felling, marquees, battle ropes, timber and fencing.

Market Dynamics

Market Drivers

• Rising Demand From Various Innovative Farming Applications

The demand for greenhouse application is growing at a higher rate due to the increasing demand for agricultural products such as cotton, soybean, and maize in developed countries. Greenhouses can prevent problems such as pests as well as provide more control against other diseases. It also provides more control over weather and enhances the overall efficiency. It is creating demand for agricultural or agro-ropes market which is essential for various farming applications.

• Increase In R&D Expenditure By Various Companies

As there is more growth witnessing from east than west due to the vast market size and underdeveloped market, is creating huge demand for agriculture goods around the globe. By considering this fact, many companies are investing a good share of their capital for research and development to get more efficient and gain cost effective advantage for their products. The companies are also making this product more efficient. The emerging economies are also favoring the growth for Agriculture Ropes.

Market Restraints

• Not Suitable For High Temperature

Agricultural ropes are made of polypropylene, which expands at high temperatures, so they cannot be used for high temperature applications. Polypropylene is a risky material and highly flammable. It has to be used depending on the application. It cannot be used at high altitudes as it is vulnerable to UV degradation. Therefore, the use of polypropylene should be avoided in areas with high UV penetration. Polypropylene has poor bonding properties which is restrains growth of Agriculture ropes.

• Environmental Cost

The raw materials used to make agriculture ropes have proven difficult to recycle. Polypropylene rope which has most common application, have a tendency to shrink after being woven into a pattern or design. The average rate of shrinkage of the polymer makes it possible for manufacturers to accurately judge the amount of polypropylene yarn or woven sheets of material to purchase.

Market Opportunities

• Innovative Product Launch and Use of Modern Farming Technologies

In order to grasp this market, Companies have to constantly improve agriculture ropes. Companies need to make agriculture ropes that are environment-friendly and not vulnerable to UV rays. They have been suitable for high temperature. This is more suitable to cold environment and can lead to high revenue generation.

• Growing Market of Greenhouse

Due to factors such as rapid urbanization, population growth, and introduction of modern technology, the size of the greenhouse market is expanding rapidly, which will lead to huge demand for the agricultural rope market in the coming years. Dragon fruits have the high demand by consumers because of its multiple health effects such as preventing aging, anti-oxidation, improving cardiovascular health, beautiful skin, controlling and preventing diabetes. Dragons fruits have long yielding duration and this tree needs a polypropylene rope to give it structure.

Market Scope

Segmental Analysis

Segmentation By Type

• Light Duty

Light Duty agricultural ropes are designed for tying crops, moving objects and hanging equipment. Light Duty agricultural ropes are easy to handle and versatile. In addition, it is easy to move because it is light.

• Medium Duty

Medium-duty agricultural ropes are used for applications such as tying down crops, moving heavy objects and suspending equipment.

• Heavy Duty

Heavy-duty agricultural ropes are made for use in heavy-duty applications, such as tying Shade net, green house, Polyhouse and other general applications. It typically carries higher breaking strength and less erode than lighter ropes.

Segmentation By Application

• Field Crop

An agriculture rope is essential for wrapping crops. They are also used to hold heavy vegetable and fruit plantations by trunks and branches. Ropes are also used for packaging agriculture goods.

• Greenhouse

Agriculture rope can provide the support to shade fabrics and other greenhouse coverings. There is a rope attached to the greenhouse structure and a rope is hung from the rope with the shade fabric. It improves the growth and productivity of plants by regulating the temperature and light levels inside the greenhouse.

• Others

They are ideal for keeping the truss structure intact by protecting the same from harsh weather conditions.
