Global Agricultural Chelates Market


Agricultural Chelates Market Trends:

Rising Demand for High-Efficiency Fertilizers:

The agricultural industry is experiencing constant pressure to improve crop yields and quality on account of the rising global population and the rising need for sustainable food production. High-efficiency fertilizers including chelates are essential for meeting this demand, as they improve the availability and absorption of essential nutrients, including zinc, manganese, and iron which are vital for plant growth and productivity. Conventional fertilizers usually suffer from nutrient loss on account of volatilization, fixation in soil, and leaching. Using chelates reduce these losses by creating stable complexes with micronutrients thus making them readily available to plants even in adverse soil situations, this is further propelling the agricultural chelates industry. This efficiency optimizes crop yield along with minimizing the environmental impact of farming procedures.

Rising Awareness about Precision Agriculture

The rising awareness about precision agriculture is leading to a positive agricultural chelates market overview. This technique improves the efficiency of agricultural inputs such as fertilizers by allocating the appropriate amount of nutrients at the right time and place. The utilization of precision agriculture techniques substantially drives the demand for the product. Precision agriculture is dependent on data-driven insights from numerous technologies including soil sensors, GPS, satellite imagery, and drones to ascertain the nutrient status of the soil and the particular needs of crops. Chelates act in solidarity with these technologies with their superior nutrient delivery capabilities making sure that the use nutrients are effectively absorbed by the plants. As per a report by the IMARC GROUP, the precision agriculture market has reached US$ 8.5 Billion in 2023, and is expected to reach US$ 20.2 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.9% during 2024-2032.

Rising Soil Degradation and Nutrient Deficiency

Soil degradation and nutrient deficiency are vital issues that are impacting the agricultural productivity globally. Intensive farming practices, overgrazing, deforestation, and improper irrigation techniques are leading to substantial soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and loss of organic matter. This degradation leads to minimized soil fertility, directly impacting crop yield and quality. The agricultural chelates demand is constantly increasing as it caters to these issues by enhancing nutrient availability and soil health. Chelates function by establishing stable complexes with vital micronutrients, counteracting them from becoming unavailable to plants on account of soil fixation or pH changes. According to a FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION (FAO), 33% of land till date is moderately to highly degraded on account of salinization, erosion, compaction, acidification, and chemical pollution of soils.

  • Soil
  • Foliar
  • Fertigation
  • Others
     

Foliar represents the leading market segment 

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the application. This includes soil, foliar, fertigation, and others. According to the report, foliar represented the largest segment.

Foliar hods maximum number of shares on account of its excellent efficacy in delivering vital nutrients immediately to the plant leaves, where they are instantly absorbed and utilized. This methodology surpasses soil-related problems, such as leaching and nutrient fixation, safeguarding a higher percentage of the applied nutrients for the plants. Foliar feeding is specifically effective for catering to the micronutrient deficiencies speedily, as it enables the immediate correction of nutrient imbalances and encourages healthier plant growth, thereby creating a positive agricultural chelates outlook. Other than this, the foliar application is advantageous in situations where soil conditions are suboptimal, including high pH or saline soils, where nutrient availability is often restricted.
