Liquid Fertilizers Market

Market Overview:

The global liquid fertilizers market size reached US$ 14.4 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 17.6 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.27% during 2023-2028.

Liquid fertilizers refer to indispensable advanced chemical solutions that provide the required amount of nutrients to crops under different environmental conditions within a specific time. They are formulated by combining chemicals, such as ammonium nitrate, aqueous ammonia, potassium salts, and urea with water and other soluble phosphates. Liquid fertilizers are a rich source of nitrogen, growth hormones, and micronutrients that ensure uniform application, optimize nutrient uptake, and enhance crop production. On account of these properties, liquid fertilizers are extensively sprayed through pumps by farmers to evenly cover grass pastures, foliar and multiple crops. At present, they are commercially available in organic and synthetic forms.

Liquid Fertilizers Market Trends:

With the significant expansion in the agriculture sector, there has been an increasing need for liquid-based enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEF) to ensure optimum plant and crop growth. This, in confluence with rising food demand, represents a prime factor driving the market growth. In line with this, due to the rising environmental and economic considerations, crop nutrition is becoming increasingly important in both commercial and food crops. Such concerns have significantly surged the use of liquid fertilizers to ensure mass food production by improving soil and plant health, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the shifting inclination of farmers toward organic liquid fertilizers to enhance soil structure, help microbes thrive, avoid plant damage, and reduce the detrimental effects of pesticides is contributing to the market growth. Moreover, the introduction of inexpensive polymer-coated urea (PCU) and urease inhibitors fertilizers for protecting against volatilization and ammonia by allowing their movement into the soil during rainfall and irrigation is propelling the market growth. Other factors, such as continuous research and development (R&D) activities and strategic collaborations amongst key players to engineer liquid fertilizers with optimized efficacy, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
