According to report, the global micronutrient market was valued at approximately USD 4.75 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach approximately USD 7.75 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of slightly above 8.0% between 2015 and 2020. In terms of volume, global micronutrient market stood at 1,050.0 kilo tons in 2014.
Micronutrients play an important role in vigorous and healthy growth of plants. Micronutrients are found in and needy by plants in relatively small amounts to regulate certain physiological activities in crops to enhance their yield and quality. Micronutrients provide the necessary co-factors for metabolism to be carried out. In agriculture, nutrients can be applied to the soil as fertilizers. There are about 20 nutrients required for plant health and better yielding. Three of them, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are considered part of the protoplasm and the remainders are considered to be mineral elements.
