The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Crop Protection Chemicals Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024”, finds that the global crop protection chemicals market size reached US$ 60 Billion in 2018. The rapidly growing population, particularly in the developing regions, has been challenging the food production capacity. To ensure adequate and reliable food supply, farmers rely on crop protection chemicals. Also known as pesticides or agrochemical products, crop protection chemicals play a crucial role in monitoring and controlling the pests and diseases that infect, consume or damage crops. The development of crop protection chemicals has helped farmers to manage crop pests including weeds, insects and fungi; improve and maintain the yield; and cost-effectively contribute to food security.
Market Trends:
Governments in various countries are creating awareness among farmers about the benefits of crop protection chemicals. They are also encouraging R&D for manufacturing new products that will help in efficiently dealing with pest attacks on crops. For instance, BASF United States has developed new strobilurins which control fungal pathogens in a higher number of cultivated crops, including grains and specialty crops. Apart from this, researchers are focusing on producing products that are highly selective in their action to minimize the impact on non-target organisms. Recently, several programs have also been introduced across the world, particularly in Europe, to ensure that the agrochemicals available in the market cater to modern safety and environmental standards. This, in turn, has encouraged the manufacturers to produce bio-based chemicals derived from natural sources, such as plants, bacteria, animals and fungi. Due to their beneficial properties and lower environmental impact as compared to conventional products, the demand for bio-based crop protection chemicals is anticipated to increase in the coming years. Looking forward, the market value is projected to exceed US$ 80 Billion by 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 4.8% during 2019-2024.
