Dublin, Jan. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Specialty Fertilizers Market by Type, Form, Mode of Application, and Crop Type - Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The specialty fertilizers market is projected to reach $42.57 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2023 to 2030. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the specialty fertilizers market across five major geographies, current market trends, size, and recent developments, and the forecast till 2030.
The growth of the specialty fertilizers market is driven by the declining availability of arable land and the rising demand for food, growing environmental concerns, and favorable government policies and regulations. However, high production costs restrain the growth of the specialty fertilizers market.
The rising adoption of precision farming technologies is expected to generate market growth opportunities. However, the lack of awareness among farmers is a challenge for the stakeholders in this market. Additionally, the increasing use of nanotechnology in agriculture is a key trend in this market.
The agricultural micronutrients segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2023-2030 due to rising micronutrient deficiency in the soil, increasing awareness of uses of micronutrients for crop production, rising government policies, and various organizations encouraging the use of micronutrients and increasing the production of fruits and vegetables which is heavy feeder of micronutrients.
The dry specialty fertilizers segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global specialty fertilizers market in 2023, owing to the growing adoption of controlled-release and slow-release fertilizers and the high efficacy and easier applicability of dry specialty fertilizers. Moreover, its cost-effectiveness, longer shelf life, ability to provide long-term release of nutrients, and high efficiency in all climatic conditions over its counterparts further support the growth of this market.
The foliar spray segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2023-2030. The growth of this segment is driven by the increasing product launches by manufacturers suitable for foliar application, growing farmer preference for foliar spray due to its ability to offer more precise nutrient delivery to plants and rapid nutrient absorption with easy and uniform application, and growing advancement in spraying technologies.
In 2023, the cereals & grains segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global specialty fertilizers market. The large market share of this segment is mainly attributed to factors such as the rising demand for food grains due to the growing population, high area under cereals and grains production such as wheat, maize, rice, and barley, and increasing industrial application of cereals and grains.
Latin America is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period of 2023-2030, mainly due to the rapidly growing population, a huge agricultural area, rising demand for specialized agriculture input products, rising government support for the agricultural sector, increasing adoption of advance agricultural techniques, and rising focus of various manufactures in the region.
