- The overuse of chemical fertilizers and pesticides is one of the serious challenges in the country. The continuous use of nitrogen at fixed sites had a negative impact on the health of the soil and crop yield, indicating deficiencies in several macro and micronutrients. Even with recommended doses of NPK and more, deficiency of micro and secondary nutrients has become a yield-limiting factor.
- The adoption of sustainable agricultural practices or organic farming can decrease the effect of chemical fertilizers on the environment. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) recommends integrated nutrient management through conjunctive use of both inorganic and organic sources of plant nutrients to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, preventing deterioration of soil health and environment and contamination of groundwater.
- These factors and the growing organic agricultural cultivation area are driving the Indian agricultural biologicals market. The crop protection segment is dominating the market. It was valued at about USD 1.84 billion in 2022. The crop nutrition segment was valued at USD 551.3 million in the same year.
- Row crop cultivation is dominant in the country, accounting for about 84.9% of the Indian agricultural biologicals market in 2022. The country is promoting organic farming under the Parampragat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) and the Mission Organic Value Chain Development for North East Region (MOVCD-NER). The demand for organic products in domestic and international markets is also expected to drive the Indian agricultural biologicals market during the forecast period.
