Fertilizers are chemical substances added to the soil for promotinghealthy growth among farm crops. They are manufactured using carbon-based agricultural waste, livestock manure, industrial waste, and municipal sludge. They contain nutrients and microbes, such as phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen,which are essential for efficient plant growth. They enhance the water retention capacity and natural fertility of the soil by altering the pH level or replacing chemical elements. They also aid in destroying pathogenic components responsible for crop failure and spreading diseases in plants. Presently, fertilizers are available in nitrogenous, phosphatic, potash, and micronutrient variants that can be applied to a wide variety of grains, pulses, cereals, oilseed, fruits and vegetables, and commercial crops.
Fertilizer Market Trends:
The rising global population and the increasing need for sustainable food production are among the key factors positively influencing the use of fertilizersto enhance soil fertility and crop growth. Apart from this, governmentsof numerous countries, along with non-government organizations (NGOs), are introducing awareness programs and rural workshops to educate farmers about the usage and benefits of fertilizers in farming. Thisis offering lucrative growth opportunities to manufacturers operating in the industry. Furthermore, the launch of nano-fertilizers (NFs) that help maintain flat green grounds and fieldsis providing a favorable market outlook. Apart from this, the widespread adoption of advanced farming techniques and the increasing utilization of bio-fertilizers on account of the rising environmental consciousness are other significant factors influencing the market positively. Moreover, the escalating demand for water-soluble and N, P, K, and micronutrient fertilizers, coupled with technological advancements, is anticipated to propel the market growthacross the globe.
