Key Market Trends

Decreasing Agricultural Land

The agricultural land in North America was 568.6 million hectares in 2015, which has increased by 0.3% and reached 570.4 million hectares in 2017. However, the agricultural land in the United States and Canada has decreased by 0.3% in 2017 and reached 463.5 million hectares from 464.2 million hectares in 2016. Urbanization and Industrialisation are the major reason for the decline in agricultural land in North America. According to American Farmland Trust (AFT); in the past 20 years, the United States has converted around 31 million acres of agricultural land into commercial, residential, and industrial areas. Farmers in the region are applying fertilizers to increase their crop yield, to feed the growing population. According to FAOSTAT, the population in North America has increased from 359.9 million in 2016 to 361.9 million in 2017. This is will boost fertilizer consumption in the region.
