Agricultural Adjuvants Market Analysis
The Agricultural Adjuvants Market size is estimated at USD 2.24 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 2.82 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.70% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
- The agricultural adjuvants market has witnessed substantial growth in recent years owing to the growing need for sustainable pest management in agricultural operations in developed countries. Further, the need for improved agricultural productivity to meet the global food demand has imposed the increased use of crop protection chemicals, which is, in turn, driving the market for agricultural adjuvants. Increased emphasis on the improved effectiveness of crop protection chemicals in varied climatic conditions is necessitating the need for innovations in terms of the adjuvants used in them.
- Globally, several regions, including North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific, have imposed strict regulations on the exposure and application of genetically modified crops. The lesser production of GMO crops in this region is a crucial factor contributing to the convenient use of adjuvants in agriculture. With genetically modified crops being adopted on a large scale, the use of adjuvants would have been reduced. The farmers cultivating the GMO crops choose herbicide-resistant seeds that have been genetically modified to tackle issues for which chemicals had to be applied, thus, cutting off the requirement for adjuvants. Therefore, stringent regulations for GMO crop production in these regions have largely contributed to the growth of adjuvants.
- In addition, the factors such as growing consumer preference for environment-friendly agricultural adjuvants and increasing use of adjuvants for biological products are contributing to the market's growth.
