Agrochemicals are pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers used for the management of ecosystems in agricultural sectors. Rudimentary variations on agrochemicals have been used for millennia to improve crop yields and control the populations of agricultural pests. Agrochemicals are classified into fertilizers and pesticides. Fertilizers enhance the quality of the crop by providing essential nutrients to the crop and soil whereas pesticides protect the crops and control, kill, or repel pests and weeds that can harm the crop. Considering the current global population scenario, it is extremely important to increase the production of crops within the present arable land to feed the global population. Thus, agrochemicals play an important role in the agriculture industry, assisting farmers in enhancing their crop quality as well as quantity.

The major factors which drives the global agrochemicals market include high population and consequent increase in the demand for food, soil degradation, less agricultural land, and increase in awareness in the consumers regarding the benefits of agrochemicals.

Agrochemicals Market Analysis by Fertilizer Type

In 2021, the nitrogen fertilizer segment of the agrochemicals market is projected to account for the largest share, by fertilizer type. Nitrogenous fertilizers are widely accessible, aid in accelerating plant growth, and increase crop yields. Farmers hardly need to add nitrogen fertilizers to their farms and gardens to make available just for the prescribed amount nutrients for their plants’ growth. The nitrogenous fertilizer industry includes the production of synthetic ammonia, nitric acid, ammonium nitrate, and urea. Synthetic ammonia and nitric acid are used primarily as intermediates in the production of ammonium nitrate and urea fertilizers.

Agrochemicals Market Analysis by Pesticide Type

Crop protection chemicals are expected to witness increased penetration in the market owing to the growing frequency of rodent and pest attacks on crops. Pesticides that target plants are frequently employed in agriculture. They are employed to eradicate weeds and other undesirable plants from crops. France produces 2,923.46 amount of pesticides. The herbicides segment is projected to account for the largest share during the forecast period. Herbicide use is increasingly being adopted around the world. Many developing countries (India, China, and Bangladesh) are facing shortages of workers to hand weed fields as millions of people move from rural to urban areas. In these countries, herbicides are far cheaper and more readily available than labor for hand weeding. History shows that in industrializing countries in the past, including the US, Germany, Japan, and South Korea, the same phenomenon occurred- as workers left agriculture, herbicides were adopted. It is inevitable that herbicide use will increase in sub-Saharan Africa, not only because millions of people are leaving rural areas, creating shortages of hand weeders, but also because of the need to increase crop yields. Companies such as Bayer (Germany), UPL (India), Syngenta (Switzerland), and Adama (Israel) manufacture a wide variety of herbicides.

Agrochemicals Market Analysis by Crop Type

The use of agrochemicals is the highest for the cereals and grains segment due to its vast area of cultivation across the globe which is driving the growth of the market. The majority of the world's cereal and grain consumption occurs in the Asia Pacific. The use of fertilizers in the cultivation of grains and cereals has almost become a need. The demand for fertilizers is being driven by the rising consumption of cereals and grains in different regions, including rice, wheat, rye, corn, oats, sorghum, and barley. With regard to rice, wheat, and other cereals and grains, agrochemical use is at its greatest. China is the world's largest grain producer, yet has grown more dependent on food imports in recent decades so, the demand of agrochemicals are abundant in this country. Pesticides assist farmers in growing fruit and vegetable crops that are secure, of good quality, and cost-effective. Fertilizers assist in giving fruits and vegetables an abundance of nutrients. To give numerous nutrients at once, many farmers employ a combination of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) fertilizers. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the production of cereal crops will increase by 60% from 2000 to 2050. Corn (Zea mays L.) is the third-most important cereal crop in the world, after wheat and rice. Every part of the corn crop has economic value; the grain, leaves, stalk, tassel, and cob can all be used to manufacture many food and non-food products. Hence, it is a challenging task to increase corn production by implementing innovative biotechnology techniques. The usage of nitrogenous fertilizers increases soil fertility, resulting in higher crop yield. Lack of soil nutrients can reduce the bioavailability of nutrients in crops like wheat and rice and can lower yields. Over the projection period, the category for fruits and vegetables is anticipated to increase at the quickest CAGR. Due to the rising health consciousness among consumers, there is a growing global demand for fresh fruits and vegetables, which can be attributed to the growth.
