Agricultural Enzymes Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2020 - 2025)

The growing demand for organic food , along with the increasing awareness among people about hazardous properties of pesticides, has raised the demand for green and naturally sourced agrochemicals over the years. Agricultural enzyme assays are emerging as technological tools for various applications in environmental and ecosystems management. Several enzymes have shown sensitivity in reflecting early changes in soil quality due to soil management long before there are measurable changes in total nutrient levels. This holds potential to guide ecosystem management for long-term sustainability. Enzymes affect microbial functions and nutrient cycling, are important indicators of organic matter decomposition, and provide required microbial nutrients. Moreover, the rising government concerns over food and environment safety in Asia-Pacific and Latin America are the factors that are boosting the farmers of various regions to adopt bio-based chemicals in place of their conventional chemical counterparts. These factors are likely to drive the agricultural enzymes market over the forecast period.

North America is one of the primary consumers of agricultural enzymes globally. The United States, with its highly evolved agricultural industry and strict environmental regulations, forms the major market for agricultural enzymes. Canada and Mexico are the other two important markets in the North American region. The increasing urbanization is one of the main factors affecting the demand for the enzymes, this is because of the different lifestyles, calorie requirements, rise in income, and change in food requirements. Agricultural enzymes are used for most cereal crops to enhance the yield as they fertilize the soil and enhance the plant growth.
