Global Agricultural Surfactants Market Share is Likely to Grow at a CAGR Value of 5.90% By 2028

31-Aug-2022 | Facts and Factors

According to Facts and Factors, the global agricultural surfactants market size was worth USD 1382.40 million in 2021 and is estimated to grow to USD 1949.88 million by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.90% over the forecast period. The report analyzes the agricultural surfactants market's drivers, restraints/challenges, and their effect on the demands during the projection period. In addition, the report explores emerging opportunities in the agricultural surfactants market.

Surfactants aid in lowering the surface tension between two liquids, a liquid and a solid, or between a liquid and a gas. They are often amphiphilic organic molecules, which implies they have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. As a result, the surfactants contain both water-soluble and water-insoluble components. Emulsifiers, detergents, foaming agents, wetting agents, and dispersants can all be produced by surfactants. Agricultural surfactants are chemicals used in formulations for pesticides to increase the efficacy of those pesticides. Lowering the surface tension of water in the pesticide spray solutions enhances retention, wettability, spreading ability, and penetration onto the leaf surface. Because less active chemicals are required for foliar uptake when using agricultural surfactants, these technologies help lower overall costs, the number of pesticides utilized, and pollution.

The demand for crop protection chemicals is also driving the market for agricultural surfactants. The market for agricultural surfactants is expanding due to the rise in precision farming usage and the need to protect crops from pests. In addition, a rise in the need for green solutions is propelling the market's expansion. Because bio-based agricultural surfactants are environmentally benign, less harmful, and biodegradable, the market for agricultural surfactants is expected to rise quickly. However, the severe restrictions placed on the use of agricultural surfactants are impeding the market's successful expansion. Industry expansion will be constrained by the increased use of genetically modified seeds that increase yield while using fewer pesticides and agrochemicals. Due to growing knowledge about the negative effects of synthetic chemicals, farmers' preferences may be shifting in favor of environmentally friendly solutions. This could be a major barrier that would impact industry profitability.

The global agricultural surfactants market has been segmented into type, application, substrate type, crop type, and region. The agricultural surfactants market is divided into cationic, anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric based on type. The non-ionic segment had the largest share in 2021 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. Based on the application, the market is divided into herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and others. The herbicides segment had a significant share in 2021. Based on substrate type, the agricultural surfactants market is divided into synthetic and bio-based. In 2021, the bio-based segment dominated the market. Based on crop type, the market is segmented into cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, and others. In 2021, the cereals & grains segment accounted for a sizable portion.

The global agricultural surfactants market is divided into geographic regions: North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. North America is projected to own the largest portion of the global market. A significant agrochemical production base is expected to support the growth of the agricultural surfactants industry. The evolution of contemporary agricultural practices in the United States, one of the leading producers of food crops, has raised the demand for agrochemicals. Using fertilizers and pesticides to increase yields while minimizing crop loss is likely to stimulate the need for chemical surfactants. Both the Food & Agricultural Organization and the World Health Organization have robust R&D programs that are anticipated to impact the regional market's expansion positively.
