Forestry Equipment Market Growth Drivers & Restraints
The growing number of government initiatives for vegetation and forest management, mainly in the Asia Pacific region will stimulate the market growth. Moreover, the continuous concerns regarding the high initial & maintenance costs of several forestry equipment may limit the product adoption rate to some extent.
COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic posed numerous challenges for the forest equipment market as it pushed several companies to limit production and close outright to respond to the slacking demand and volatile market prices. However, the surging government support to help forest product providers reinforce their supply chains to sell products to new markets assisted in enhancing the industry growth.
Forestry Equipment Market Trends
The rising number of investments across the forestry sector will play a crucial role in the market expansion. The growing awareness regarding environmental sustainability coupled with the surging climate change and deforestation concerns have made way for the higher demand for renewable resources. To that end, several investors are looking for various opportunities for supporting environmentally responsible as well as sustainable practices. It has been predicted that the GEF (Global Environment Facility) invested $3.7 billion in forest initiatives, till date. The rise in the number of such investments will favor the industry development.
Forestry Equipment Market Analysis
The felling equipment segment, comprising harvesters, chainsaws, and feller bunchers, records more than 30% of the forestry equipment market share and is projected to witness expansion through 2032. The growth can be attributed to the rising trend of commercial forestry and the consequent need for felling, harvesting, delimbing, processing, and bucking trees. The Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) reveals that nearly 24.7 million acres of commercially planted forests currently exist worldwide. The growing adoption of AI and control system-integrated automated equipment will further boost the segment growth.
The forestry equipment market in North America is expected to make a lot of money by 2032. This is because the US government is giving more money to silviculture, which is the practice of growing and managing forests. This is being done to keep the trees and vegetation in place. The population of North America is growing fast, and so is the demand for housing and businesses. This has led to a higher demand for wood, which is used in furniture, heating, and paper production. In November 2022, the number of new homes sold went up by 5.8% to about 640,000 units per year. Governments and businesses are also investing more money in transportation and infrastructure, which will help the forestry equipment market grow in North America.
