Agricultural Biologicals Market Analysis
The agricultural biologicals Market size is estimated at USD 7.84 billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 15.90 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 15.20% during the forecast period (2023-2028).
- Agricultural biologicals are the seed treatment products that are used to replace chemicals in farming, which are mainly used to prevent the crops from pests, weeds, and diseases, in order to maintain crop health.
- The rise in awareness among farmers, increased pest outbreaks in crops, need to increase the yield of the crops, and developments in pest-resistance products are some of the major reasons for the growth of the market.
Agricultural Biologicals Market Trends
Favorable Regulatory Structure
Given that biopesticides tend to pose fewer environmental risks compared to chemical pesticides, the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) generally requires less stringent data to register a biopesticide than chemical pesticide. As a result, new biopesticides are often registered in less than a year, compared to an average of more than three years for chemical pesticides. Biopesticides are regulated in the European Union in the same manner as chemical pesticides. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), a 34-country group headquartered in Paris, France, assists EU in a quick and thorough assessment of biopesticide for eliminating risks to humans and the environment.
To promote the use of biopesticides, even developing countries, such as India, have simplified the requirement for the registration of biopesticides. The National Farmer Policy in India also strongly recommended the use of biopesticides across the country. All these activities are creating an opportunity for the development of biopesticides, globally. In the United States, the registration process for biofertilizers is done at the state level, and they are registered under soil amendments, as they contain organic components. In Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has well-defined processes for the registration of biofertilizers. This practice allows biofertilizer companies to operate in a safe environment and attract new investors in the biofertilizer industry.
United States Dominates the Market
According to the data of the US Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Statistics Service, there were more than 1,400 registered organic farms in the Unites States in 2016. Furthermore, around 3,454,441 acres of land was treated with biological fertilizers in 2017. Organic exports of fruits and vegetables amounted to USD 548 million in 2016. Hence, the increasing demand for organic crops is leading to an upsurge in the demand for biological products in the country. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is associated with the regulation of pesticides in the United States, has made the registration of biopesticide products more efficient through the development of modified test methodologies and clear guidance documents, as a result of which, currently, over 430 biopesticide ingredients are available in the country.
The major strategies adopted by key players, such as Certis USA LLC, Syngenta, Bayer CropScience AG, and BASF SE, have also contributed to the growth of the agricultural biologicals market in the country. For instance, in 2017, Agrinos and Van Diest Supply Company partnered to drive the use of biological crop solutions among the farmers in the country.
