The presence of government initiatives that promote gardening is the key factor driving the growth of the global market. Gardening provides people with fresh, high-quality produce. That is why many normal people and government agencies have also introduced gardening activities. For example, in September 2022, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced the expansion of its People Garden Initiative to include statewide gardens.
Moreover, community gardens are accepted for school gardens, community gardens, urban farms, and rural, suburban, and urban small farm projects if they are registered on the USDA website and meet the criteria. Therefore, the presence of government initiatives will increase the sales of mowers, which, in turn, will drive the growth of the lawn mover during the forecast period.
Automation in lawn care is the primary trend in the global market growth. Autonomous electric mowers offer advanced maneuverability and control options via a smartphone application. Equipped with safety functions such as auto start and auto end. For example, Robert Bosch GmbH offers the Indego S+ robotic mower with a Logicut navigation system and covers up to 400 square meters of lawn area. Robotic electric mowers help end-users minimize manual intervention when gardening.
Additionally, the robotic lawnmower has a remote object detection feature that can detect nearby objects. When the battery gets low, the product will go back to the charger and you can continue mowing when there is enough charge. Lawn care automation, therefore, creates an opportunity for companies to offer advanced electric mowers with increased speed and efficiency, helping to meet the growing demand for these products during the forecast period. This will drive the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Rising preference for pre-used and rented electric lawn mowers is a major challenge to the growth of the market. Nowadays, many end-users prefer to buy low-priced electric mowers, and they also prefer to buy used models of electric mowers that are less expensive than new ones. We receive information about the availability of such models through media advertising. Workshops are also available. Therefore, increasing preference for used models of mowers will have a negative impact on sales of newer equipment, which will adversely affect the growth potential of the market during the forecast period.
In addition, end users can also rent electric lawn mowers. End users save service and maintenance costs by using rental gardens and lawn tools. It also doesn't cost you to buy an electric lawnmower. The cost-saving benefits offered by rental equipment may encourage end-users to take advantage of such services, which will negatively impact new sales of mowers in the market during the forecast period.
