Our researcher studied the historical data for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the cloud seeding market. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for the cloud seeding market has been impacted significantly, but a holistic analysis of drivers will help in estimating exact demands and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Cloud Seeding Market Driver
The growing focus on regulating weather patterns is one of the key factors driving the global cloud seeding market growth. Cloud seeding techniques can increase cloud precipitation and boost snowfall or rainfall. Commercial use such as the utilization of aircraft or ground-based cloud seeding to ensure regular environmental conditions around runways has been mainly employed. Regular cloud seeding activities are required because severe weather, such as hail, ice, or fog, can make it difficult for aircraft to take off and land. Weather patterns are being significantly impacted by the rise in global warming and the rise in carbon footprint, which is being fueled by a variety of industrial and other commercial activities. Major seasons, including summer, winter, and monsoon are becoming erratic worldwide. Extreme weather conditions, heat and cold waves, and destructive storms are predicted to increase in frequency during the forecast period. Nearly a quarter of the planet, including developed nations with significant economies including the US, Russia, China, the UK, India, and the UAE, had the hottest temperatures on record in 2021. Environmental scientists have developed a cloud-seeding method for regulating the weather in such circumstances. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the global cloud seeding market during the forecast period.
Key Cloud Seeding Market Trend
The use to reduce the adverse impact of natural disasters will fuel the global cloud seeding market growth. Cloud seeding technology can significantly lower the disastrous effects of climate change. When utilized in cloud seedlings, chemicals like sodium chloride and silver iodide can hasten the precipitation of rain clouds and lower the projected overall damage. For instance, a cloud containing extremely heavy snow or rain particles that is headed toward populated areas may be seeded in a jungle environment. Cloud seeding will make sure that calamities and cloud precipitation can be reduced. The environmental changes brought on by rising pollution and unpredictably bad weather have a devastating effect globally. Flash floods, thunderstorms, erratic rainfall, heat waves, and hailstorms are more frequent occurrences that do significant harm to human society. In the US, there are on average about a thousand incidents of hail storms every year, and that number keeps rising. Such negative impacts of natural disasters can be prevented through cloud seeding, which is expected to drive the growth of the global cloud seeding market during the forecast period.
Key Cloud Seeding Market Challenge
Challenges in commercializing cloud seedling technology are the major challenge to the global cloud seeding market growth. The complex process of altering the weather using cloud seeding has the potential to have long-term effects on the earth's atmosphere if it is performed too often. Although cloud seeding has been employed for many years, the widespread commercial acceptability of the technology is hampered by the lack of clear evidence regarding its success rate. The inability to perform cloud seeding on every cloud is another significant barrier to commercial acceptability. For the best outcomes, there must be an ideal set of weather conditions, such as a minimum density of seedable clouds. To eliminate these drawbacks, sophisticated weather forecasts and monitoring technology is needed, which reduces the commercial potential of cloud seeding. Such factors are expected to hinder the growth of the cloud seeding market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact and Recovery Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse effect on the cloud seeding industry. The imposition of sudden lockdowns and the halt in commercial activities resulted in limited weather monitoring and forecasting activities. Limited data availability on current weather and cloud conditions made it impossible to perform cloud seeding operations. Cloud seeding is primarily practiced by government agencies over large areas. The cloud seeding industry witnessed a slowdown as government agencies focused and allocated funds to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with the start of mass vaccination campaigns in 2021, lockdowns and travel restrictions were lifted and supply chain activity resumed. These factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.

The cloud seeding market share growth by the arial-based segment will be significant during the forecast period. Aerial cloud seeding, which is used in weather modification projects has historically utilized aircraft to target clouds and pull in extra precipitation to increase rainfall. With top seeding, the seeding chemical can be directly injected into the top of the supercooled cloud. The introduction of a seeding substance into a cloud base's updraft is known as base seeding. Such factors are propelling the growth of the aerial-based cloud seeding segment, which, in turn, will drive the growth of the global cloud seeding market during the forecast period.
This report provides an accurate prediction of the contribution of all the segments to the growth of the cloud seeding market size and actionable market insights on the post-COVID-19 impact on each segment.
