By Region: The report provides insight into the farming as a service market based on the geographical operations, namely North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and rest of the world.

North America farming as a service market enjoyed the highest market share in 2024 due to several factors such as the increasing usage of automation and control systems, smart agricultural technologies, and the adoption of agriculture farming as a service in the region. The increased use of automated machinery, smart crops, livestock monitoring, and drones is aiding farmers in improving farm management, contributing to the regional market growth. The US dominates the North America Farming as a Service market owing to robust economic growth, growing consumer spending and business investments. Also, the US is home to major global agriculture machinery manufacturers like Deere & Company and AGCO Corporation, which have maintained leading positions in the agriculture industry by adapting to changes and incorporating automation and robotics into their machinery.

India is expected to be the fastest-growing region in farming as a service as India is predominantly an agrarian economy which contributes 15% to GDP, but faces challenges such as low productivity due to heavy reliance on rainwater, small farm land holdings, and lack of access to technology. The demand for food in India is growing, but supply is constrained by marginal productivity gains, shrinking arable land, climate change effects, and supply chain inefficiencies. The government and private players are working to improve efficiency and productivity in agriculture through Farming as a Service (FaaS) solutions.
