Latin America Agricultural Enzymes Market

Latin America Agricultural Enzymes Market Size, Growth, Trends and Forecast:

Latin America Agricultural Enzymes Market was worth USD 43.63 million in 2021 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 11.12%, to reach USD 73.92 million by 2026.

Agricultural enzymes are biological catalysts which are used thoroughly in agricultural based biotechnological processing, like processing of crops and crop residues, enzyme-assisted silage fermentation, bio-processing of fibers, and production of a lot of animal feed supplements. Technological progress in the field of agricultural enzymes has boosted both the application of agricultural enzymes such as advent of phytases which enhances the nutritional content of the food grains as well as silage fermentation and manufacturing capacity.

Key companies in the sector have discovered technologies for producing the enzymes from microorganisms. The microorganisms which are used for production grow in closed steel tanks, which contain nutrients such as starch, soy, sugar, and corn. These microorganisms expand the crop yields and reduce the use of pesticides in the production of food.
