Asia-Pacific Specialty Fertilizers Market was worth USD 2.77 billion in 2019 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 9.1%, to reach USD 4.29 billion by 2024. Specialty Fertilizers are granulated fertilizers that gradually supply nutrients to the soil. They can additionally be modified through chemical techniques so as to provide the required nutrient uptake. These methods include coating, encapsulation and solubility reduction.
Speciality Fertilizers can be synthetic or organic. In some fertilizers, the nutrients are not directly released into the soil in a form that can be utilized by plants. They require micro-organisms present in the soil to convert them into nutrient forms that can be utilized by the plants. Specialty Fertilizers also reduces the loss of nutrients, especially nitrates and loss of ammonia due to evaporation.
The Asia-Pacific Specialty Fertilizers market is driven by a slew of factors such as growing food demand, environmental concerns, growing government support, increasing private investments and decreased land availability. All of the problems such as land availability, environmental concerns and growing food demand is relevant most in the Asia-Pacific region where the population growth is on an unprecedented scale. There is increased pressure to produce more using less land while minimally affecting the ecosystem. As for the constraints to the market, the relative expense of specialty fertilizers as compared to normal fertilizers is the main contributing factor. Additionally, in developing countries the customers are not completely aware of the advantages of using specialty fertilizers and tend to stick to conventional fertilizers for agriculture.
