The Americas smart farming market comprises major companies providing yield monitoring equipment, steering and guidance equipment, herd monitoring equipment, farm management software, and smart greenhouses and other such equipment and systems used in smart farming. This varied range of market participants provides opportunities to other players willing to bear the high risks involved in the industry. This chapter details the latest strategies and developments adopted by the key market players in the Americas smart farming market. In order to lead the market as well as engage in the process of market growth, a company needs to work in collaboration with the top market leaders, acquire the relatively weaker companies, bring new products and services to the market, and improve the existing products.

Reform of the Common Agricultural Policy will begin in earnest in 2018, and environmental criteria will re-emerge as a key focal point. Environmental considerations could have detrimental impacts on regional palm oil consumption, while Black Sea grain exports face weaker prospects over the coming quarters. We see few trade opportunities in Canada for EU meat productions and, lastly, we assess the future impact of big data.

Agrochemicals are the chemicals that aid in agriculture activities. They include fertilizers, pesticides, and plant growth regulators, which are used to enhance crop yields and protect them from pests. However, excess use of such chemicals is harmful to the environment, and hence, approvals and permits from governments are required before their utilization.

By closely observing the global and domestic economic dynamism, RAPBN of 2019 has been prepared in a bid to support implementation of priority development projects under the Government Working Plan (RKP) for 2019 through healthy and sustainable fiscal policy management. In line with the plan, the government proposed the draft state budget for 2019 with a deficit of 1.84 percnt of the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), smaller than a deficit target of 2.12 percent set for 2018. The deficit is to be prudently covered with funds from financing sources to keep the debt ratio within a manageable level and will seek to control the deficit in safe limit. The fiscal deficit is lower at 1.84% that the increase in foreign debt would be smaller although the the growth target could not be too ambitious at 5.3%.

Agriculture is one of the key economic sectors of Mexico, accounting for 3.4% of the country’s GDP, 13.4% of formal employment and 4.6% of national exports in 2017. Moreover, the sector was one of the main driving forces of the economy in 2017, with GVA rising by 3.4% y/y, well above the overall GDP growth of 2%, supported by both strong domestic demand and rising exports. The country ranks among the world’s top ten producers of a variety of crops, livestock and fishery products, including maize, lemons, oranges, pork, beef, poultry meat, octopus, tuna, shrimp and sardines. Nevertheless, the extent of agriculture’s exposure to the US – which absorbed about 80% of its exports in 2017 – remains one of the main causes for concern, in view of the ongoing renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between the US, Mexico and Canada.

In this quarter's overview for the Americas region, we highlight implications of new environmental policies for the agribusiness industry. The future policy direction of the Trump Administration will have important consequences for agriculture, such as issues pertaining to both regional trade policy, bilateral trade policy, and state-level marijuana initiatives. The use of 'big data' will become more prominent in the coming years, while the region’s sugar sector will create opportunities in renewable fuel generation.
