Middle East and Africa Plant Antifreeze Market was worth USD xx million in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of xx%, to reach USD xx million by 2026. Additive which is used to reduce the freezing point of water or water based liquid is known as antifreeze. In freezing low temperatures, dew on the plant surface or water under the surface freezes. This might result in frost injuries to the plant and affects major metabolic processes and nutrient transportation in plants.
This in turn affects the growth and productivity if the plants. Certain plants produce polypeptides which act as antifreeze proteins and enable the survival of plants. Several plant antifreeze products are manufactured to use for crops, flowering plants and large scale garden plants protect the crops in subzero temperatures. Some of the antifreeze products such as Cropaid stimulate plants to produce antifreeze proteins.
Middle East and Africa Plant Antifreeze Market Drivers:
Irreversible damage to crops in cold temperatures and thereby reducing the crop yield is the major factor increasing the demand for plant antifreeze products. Increase in the plant ability to perform photosynthesis in freezing temperatures, increase in crop yield and economic benefits by decreasing the crop damage are driving the market growth. However, antifreeze products are not required in tropical regions due to the high temperatures all over the year. Availability of alternate methods and lack of awareness are hindering the market growth.
Middle East and Africa Plant Antifreeze Market – By Product:
Propylene Glycol
Ethylene glycol holds the largest market share as it increases the boiling point of water in the plants in addition to reducing freezing point providing additional advantage during summer. However, propylene glycol is replacing ethylene glycol to its toxicity issues on humans and animals.
Middle East and Africa Plant Antifreeze Market – By Application:
Fruits and vegetables hold the largest market share as the flowering season will be greatly affected due to the freezing temperatures.
