It is notable that growing agricultural activities globally also lead to the way where water bodies connected with irrigation systems experience difficulties caused by invasive aquatic weeds. Aquatic herbicides would be required in agriculture due to a need to guard against crop spoilage, efficiently maintain irrigation infrastructure as well as enhancing yields. Similarly, the increased awareness of environmental conservation, particularly in recreational waters, rivers and natural habitats, among others. Aquatic herbicides represent an effective approach of fighting invasive species while conserving biodiversity within lakes, ponds, and reservoirs.

Rising Emphasis on Sustainable and Eco-friendly Formulations: The increasing focus on green and ecological formulas. Due to a rising concern for the environment, there are demands for herbicides which efficiently target the vegetation in waterways without harming other plants or environments. The use of integrated weed management approaches, which includes biological weed control methods together with herbicides, is increasing in many places. Also, better herbicide sprays have now been developed which only hit weeds specifically avoiding the pollution of water. Another important development includes the use of other technological developments like remote sensing and precision application tools that helps enhance efficiency of controlling weeds on water bodies.

Aquatic herbicides will possibly remain a dominant product in North America. These activities include the numerous agricultural activities taking place across this region, abundant water bodies available, and high demand for efficient management of weeds on waters for a better ecosystem. Water quality standards, as well as sustainability in agriculture are issues that further add the use of aquatic herbicides to North American markets.
