Latin America Biostimulants Market

Market Overview:

The Latin America biostimulants market size reached US$ 389.2 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 785.2 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3% during 2023-2028.

Biostimulants are agricultural products made using plant hormones, seaweed extracts, enzymes, microorganisms, and trace elements. They are applied to seed, soil leaves of cereals, grains, fruits, vegetables, oilseeds and other plantation crops. They assist in promoting sustainable agricultural practices and enhancing crop productivity by reducing the use of fertilizers. They also increase antioxidants in plants and minimize environment-induced stress. Besides this, they help preserve the ecological balance of nature by boosting metabolism, nutrient intake, water retention capacity, and chlorophyll production. As a result, biostimulants are applied in crops, including maize, oilseed, sugar beet, turf, flowers, and ornamentals, across Latin America.

Rapidly changing climatic conditions in Latin America represents one of the primary factors contributing to the market growth. Moreover, the flourishing agriculture sector, along with the rising adoption of organic farming practices, is positively influencing the sales of biostimulants in the region. This can also be accredited to increasing concerns about agricultural sustainability, soil health and environmental safety. Besides this, farmers are widely adopting biostimulants as an alternative to fertilizers as they have a low ecological footprint and do not contaminate the soil. However, the surge in coronavirus disease (COVID-19) cases and lockdown restrictions imposed by government authorities in the region have impacted the market. It is anticipated to grow on account of numerous innovations in the field of agricultural sciences and increasing research and development (R&D) activities.
