Research Methodology on Mechanized Irrigation Market
INTRODUCTION
The research report titled “Mechanized Irrigation Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2023-2030”, prepared by Market Research Future (MRFR), provides an in-depth analysis of the global mechanized irrigation market. The analysis to be presented is based on two primary research approaches: primary research and secondary research.
The report states that mechanized irrigation is an efficient and cost-effective form of irrigation that utilizes various mechanized means to water the soil. It provides precise, efficient, and uniform distribution of water. The report identifies factors such as a rising population, concerns regarding the supply of water and improved living standards of people which is resulting in an increased demand for food products, as major reasons for the growth of the mechanized irrigation market.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The research methodology adopted to conduct this study was to collect, organize, and analyse data from different sources. The research methodology is divided into four parts – primary research and secondary research, data collection, and data analysis. The primary research approach is used to obtain first-hand information from the market participants while the secondary research approach is used to locate and collect secondary data from existing sources. The data collection methods used include desk research, telephone interviews, and experts’ opinions. The approaches used for data analysis include the bottom-up approach, top-down approach, factor analysis, time-series analysis and demand-side and supply-side data triangulation. The study as such is an analysis of the previous studies.
2.0 RESEARCH APPROACH
