Agrochemicals are specialized chemicals and compounds used for protecting and improving the quality of farm products. They are used in agricultural fields and commercial plantation units for protecting the produce from pests, weeds and fungi and enhancing the overall yield. Some of the commonly used agrochemicals include nitrogen, phosphatic and potassic fertilizers, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, rodenticides, molluscicides, nematicides and pesticides. They are added to soil to mitigate nutrient deficiencies and prevent diseases in the plants. Agrochemicals are usually water-insoluble and sprayed with surfactants or solvents to improve the application performance and bio-efficacy of the product. They are widely applied on the crops of cereals, grains, oilseeds, pulses, fruits and vegetables.

Agrochemicals Market Trends:

Significant growth in the agriculture industry across the globe is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Due to the rising concerns regarding agricultural sustainability, soil health and environmental safety, agrochemicals are rapidly being used along with organic manure to improve soil fertility and plant health. Moreover, the escalating demand for exotic fruits, vegetables and flowers that require highly controlled environments and specific nutritional content in the soil is resulting in the increasing adoption of agrochemicals. Various product innovations, such as the development of sustainable bio-based agrochemicals, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. In comparison to the traditionally used synthetic chemicals, these variants are environment-friendly, more efficient and cost-effective. In line with this, the increasing preference for natural food products among the masses, is also contributing to the rising demand for agrochemicals. Other factors, including rising expenditure capacities of the consumers, along with the implementation of favorable government policies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
