Agricultural Films Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a positive impact on the market growth during and post-COVID-19 era. The need to increase agricultural yield is notably driving the agricultural films market growth, although factors such as may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the agricultural films industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Agricultural Films Market Driver

One of the key factors driving growth in the agricultural film market is the need to increase agricultural yield. The demand for agricultural films has increased among farmers as they need to consider various factors such as changes in climatic conditions, soil characteristics, water and other nutrient levels in the soil, and other macroeconomic factors in crop production. The demand for agricultural films to increase crop yield is expected to drive the growth of the global agriculture films market during the forecast period.

Key Agricultural Films Market Trend

The need to improve the quality of silage is an agricultural film market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. Silage is a high-moisture stored fodder used to feed livestock. It is essential during the dry season when the nutrient content and availability of natural pastures are not sufficient enough to feed livestock. The grass is cut and fermented to preserve the nutrients as much as possible. During the rainy season, silage may get too wet if not kept properly and may ferment poorly and start seeping. Wrapping silage with agricultural films saves the capital expenditure on building clamps, reduces weather dependence, and increases the ease of transportation. During silage wrapping, agricultural films are stretched and overlapped multiple times to reduce puncturing. Multiple layers of wraps ensure less air permeability and reduce mould formation risks. These benefits offered by agricultural films drive their use on farms for silage protection. In addition, the growing demand for improved silage to feed livestock is expected to drive the growth of the global agriculture films market during the forecast period.

Key Agricultural Films Market Challenge

The high establishment cost will be a major challenge for the agricultural film market during the forecast period. Greenhouses are established for gardening and farming purposes. However, the establishment cost differs for individual growers. The cost of establishing greenhouses is on the higher side for commercial crops due to the need for large areas of farmland, permanent structure, and other supporting facilities. Agricultural films cost around $0.71 per square foot for greenhouse applications. Moreover, the installation cost of a permanent greenhouse structure is $23-$26 per square foot depending upon the cultivation area. Apart from the high installation cost, the use of devices such as sensors, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems adds up to the overall cost of operations. These high installations and operational costs have led to the decline in the adoption of agricultural films among farmers, in turn having an impact on the overall growth prospects of the global agricultural films market.
