According to the report, the agrochemicals market is projected to expand at an impressive CAGR of 3.83% over the forecast period 2018-2024. The agrochemicals market is expected to surge during the forecast period which can be attributed to the growing global population and declining arable land. Global population has increased from 6.841 billion in 2009 to 7.594 billion in 2018, also, it is anticipated that the global population will increase to 8.6 billion by 2030 (Source: The World Population Prospects, United Nation). Simultaneously, the global trend of urbanization is steadily reducing the arable land available for cultivation. In fact, it is projected that the arable land in the European Union will fall from 106.5 million ha in 2017 to 104 million ha in 2030 (Source: EU Agriculture Outlook, European Commission) and in the United States arable land area has decreased from 175,400 thousand hectares in 2001 to 152,262.5 thousand hectares in 2016 (Source: The World Bank). Besides, the relative improvement in the farm income over the years along with the favorable agriculture policies in developing countries like India, China and Brazil are further supplementing the growth of the market during the forecast period.
By crop type, cereals hold significant market share in the agrochemicals market accounting for nearly fifty percent of the market share owing to the increasing expenditure on agriculture activities for harvesting cereal crops. Fruits and vegetables is the second-largest segment by crop type. In addition to this, the market is also witnessing a rise in the adoption and cultivation of genetically modified oilseeds has also increased the consumption of the agrochemicals for the oilseeds segment.
Geographically, the agrochemicals market is segmented as North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific. North America held a significant share in the agrochemicals market owing to the increasing expenditure on agriculture activities and the rising use of herbicides in the region. The rising population is becoming a prime driving factor for the growth of the market in the Asia Pacific region. Growing environmental regulations concerning the use of pesticides in the European region might impede on the growing demand for these chemicals over the forecast period.
Furthermore, the agrochemical industry currently is facing multiple challenges such as land productivity, reduction in arable land, water contamination (due to excess chemical usage) and in-effective irrigation facilities in developing countries among many others.
