Asia Pacific Soil Conditioners Market was worth USD 3.84 billion in 2020 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 9.16%, to reach USD 6.40 billion by 2025.
Soil conditioners are materials which are added to soil in order to enhance their physical qualities, like fertility and also its mechanics. It comes under the category of soil amendments which includes many fertilisers and non-organic materials.
Soil conditioners have a wide range of applications. It is primarily used in order to compact the soil and improve its structure. Compacting the soil decreases the growth of roots, preventing their absorption of nutrients and water from soil. Soil conditioners are also used to enhance the quality of poor soils by adding substances into them like compost, clay, beneficial bacteria and minerals like calcium and magnesium among others. A few additives greatly enhance the capability of soils to exchange cations. They can also be used to enhance the water retaining capacity, especially in dry and coarse soils by adding additives like organic materials for example.
The Asia Pacific Soil Conditioners market is driven by factors such as rising awareness about need for soil enhancement, technological advancements in agriculture like use of precision agriculture techniques in soil and crop management, rising need for enhancement in the quality of soil, rising populations and growing investment in research and development among others. However, the market is mainly constrained by lack of awareness about soil conditioners in the developing nations.
