The agrochemicals market is estimated to be one of the most crucial segments of agro-inputs, owing to the intensifying commercial farming of high-value crops to meet the growing diversified food demand. As such, agrochemicals are witnessing a significant demand since farmers are resolute to attain nutritious and high-quality crop production.
Agrochemicals job is to defend crops, boost crop yields, and sustain the food and soil quality. Another vital role of agrochemicals is to alter the growth progression of the plants. Agrochemicals are therefore seen as those products, which boost the return on investment and also help in meeting farmers as well as customer demands, from the economical and health standpoint with growing per hectare production of quality agricultural crops.
The growth of the Europe Agrochemicals market is majorly driven by factors such as a wide range of pest control applications of Agrochemicals and decreasing arable land. This market is also propelled by factors such as meticulous research & partaking of intellectual property rights and increasing R&D investments. However, issues such as strict regulatory structures in the EU and the toxicity of these substances towards the environment are the major restraints for the market growth in this region.
Market Segmentation:
The Europe Agrochemicals market is segmented based on Type and Application. The market for Agrochemicals, on the basis of Type, is classified into Fertilizers, Pesticides, Plant Growth Regulators, and Adjuvants. Fertilizers are further segmented into Nitrogenous, Phosphate, and Potassic Based Fertilizers, whereas Pesticides are further segmented into organophosphates, pyrethroids, biopesticides. Plant Growth Regulators are further classified into Auxins and Cytokinins, whereas Adjuvants are further classified into Activator Adjuvants and Utility Adjuvants. Nitrogenous fertilizers lead the agrochemicals market on the basis of type. However, the demand for pesticides is increasing at a high rate, given the growing frequency of numerous pests and diseases. Currently, the Pesticides market is being spearheaded by herbicides products, trailed by fungicides and insecticides. On the basis of Application, the Agrochemicals market is segmented into Crop Based and Non-Crop Based. Crop Based segment is further sub-segmented into Oil seeds, Fruits & Vegetables, Grains & Cereals, whereas Non-Crop Based segment is further sub-segmented into Turf & Ornamental Grass and others. By application, grains & cereals lead the market for Agrochemicals and this trend is anticipated to remain during the forecast period.
The Europe market has been geographically segmented into Germany, U.K, France, Spain, and Italy. Demand for agrochemicals in Europe is estimated to grow at a sluggish rate mainly due to market maturity and regulatory restrictions. However, the development of crops such as oilseeds and sugarcane is mainly anticipated due to the broadening applications such as feed, fuel, and other industrial applications, which in turn drives the market in this region.
