APAC is estimated to contribute 36% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. Another region offering significant growth opportunities to companies is Europe. Some of the main countries that are significantly contributing to the growth of the global market are Germany, France, the UK, and Belgium due to the high agricultural farming practices in these countries.
Additionally, the increasing demand for these products can be attributed to the environmentally friendly nature of these products. There is increasing adoption of these products, especially in countries such as Germany, France, and the UK, as well as other European countries. Furthermore, the European Union has implemented a soil policy that restricts the extensive use of chemical fertilizers and synthetic agro products, which is expected to positively impact the market. Hence, such factors are expected to drive the global market in the region during the forecast period.
The market is witnessing robust growth, driven by increasing awareness of soil health and sustainability in agriculture. Organic fertilizers, sourced from natural materials like animal waste, agricultural waste, and earthworm castings, offer numerous benefits. They enhance soil water and moisture retention, promote soil aeration, and provide essential nutrients like nitrogen for plant growth. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, organic options improve soil fertility without harmful salts, contributing to soil health and quality. As concerns over food security rise with the growing world population, organic fertilizers play a crucial role in ensuring sustainable agricultural output and crop health. Adoption rates are increasing, supported by advancements in precision agriculture technology such as sensors and GPS, facilitating precise application and maximizing nutrient distribution for optimized crop production. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
One of the key factors driving the market growth is the increasing demand for food due to population growth. One of the main factors that is significantly contributing to the global market growth is the rapid growth in the population. The increase in population fuels the demand for food which, in turn, will increase the demand for organic fertilizers. Due to the increase in urbanization, there is a significant decrease in cultivable land.
As a result, there is an increase in dependence on environmentally sustainable products such as organic fertilizer due to the rise in food shortage and growing demand for grains, vegetables, pulses, and other agricultural yields. Furthermore, as per the United Nations Department of Economics and Social Affairs, the population in 2022 was 8 billion, and it is expected to rise to 8.5 billion by 2030. Hence, such factors are expected to increase the global market growth during the forecast period.
A key factor shaping the global market growth is the easy recyclability and compostable nature of organic fertilizers. There is an increased preference when compared to chemical fertilizers across industries as they are biodegradable. The main reason for their increasing adoption is that they are environmentally friendly and sustainable in nature even after their prolonged use.
Another main advantage of using organic fertilizers is that they enhance the nutrient quality of the soil as it gets easily decomposed with the release of carbon dioxide, methane, and water. Some of the key benefits include sustainability, elimination of toxic residues from the soil and enhancement of cultivation practices, and prevention of environmental hazards such as eutrophication and agricultural runoff. Hence, such factors are expected to drive the global market growth during the forecast period.
The availability of substitutes is one of the key challenges hindering global market growth. There is an increasing availability of substitutes such as chemical fertilizers, synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and other agrochemicals in the market which can negatively impact the global organic fertilizers market growth. Also, the farmers are forced to use synthetic and artificial fertilizers to enhance crop yield as there is a reduction in cultivable land due to rapid urbanization and construction activities.
Additionally, there is a decline in soil quality in several countries and hence there is an increasing adoption of synthetic fertilizers in such countries to increase the crop yield. Furthermore, synthetic fertilizers are relatively cheaper when compared to other organic fertilizers which can lead to an increase in consumption across industries. Hence, such factors are expected to hinder the global market during the forecast period.
