Agrochemicals Market by Product (Fertilizers, Pesticides, Plant Growth Regulators and Adjuvants), Data Application (Crop-based and Non-crop-based) and Geography - Global Industry Analysis, Opportunities and Forecast up to 2030

Agrochemicals Market Size
The global agrochemicals market size was valued at $251.74 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $324.08 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period.

Agrochemicals Market Overview
Agrochemicals play a pivotal role in the agriculture industry, serving as essential tools for farmers to safeguard crops from pests and diseases while enhancing yields. These chemical products, encompassing herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and others for soil treatment and plant growth, are instrumental in elevating crop productivity. Agrochemicals, including pesticides and fertilizers, are engineered compositions designed to improve both the quantity and quality of crops. While pesticides protect crops by managing pests and weeds, fertilizers enhance crop and soil health with vital nutrients.

Agrochemicals Market Dynamics
• The agrochemicals market is expected to witness significant growth in the future due to the increasing population and the subsequent rise in demand for food, increasing the use of agricultural chemicals, and growing cases of plant diseases.
• Additionally, increasing demand for high crop productivity is the prominent factor driving the growth of the market.
• However, increasing environmental risks from pesticides, and fertilizers and increasing cost of raw materials are restraining the market growth.
• On the contrary, crop-specific nutrient management through precision farming and the drift potential of UAVs with adjuvant in aerial application are creating opportunities for market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Agrochemicals Market
The pandemic accelerated some shifts in agricultural practices, including increased interest in sustainable and precision agriculture technologies. There's been a growing focus on products that support these practices, including biopesticides and other environmentally friendly agrochemicals. This shift reflects a broader trend towards sustainability in agriculture, which the pandemic has, in some cases, accelerated.

Moreover, the approval of new agrochemical products faced delays in some regions as regulatory bodies prioritized COVID-19 related approvals and measures. This had a short-term impact on the introduction of new products to the market but also underscored the importance of streamlined regulatory processes for future resilience.

By Product, Cereal & Grains Segment to Hold Major Share in the Agrochemicals Market
The Cereal & Grains segment is expected to have a huge demand in the Agrochemicals market during the forecast period owing to its being the most consumed agricultural product. Cereal and grain cultivation is a global practice, and the cultivation of these crops typically involves the application of fertilizers. The increasing consumption of cereals and grains in various regions is propelling the demand for fertilizers. Crops such as rice, wheat, and others within the Cereal & Grains segment are notable users of agrochemicals, contributing to the prevalence of this category within the agrochemicals market. This strategic focus on Cereal & Grains aligns with the imperative to meet global food demands while ensuring optimal agricultural practices.

By Geography, the Asia Pacific region is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The Asia Pacific region is experiencing strong growth during the forecast period due to the world's leading producer of agricultural goods. This region is notably propelled by major contributors such as India, China, and Japan. China, standing as the globe's largest exporter and manufacturer of pesticides according to the International Trade Center (ITC) and FAO, India, following China, Japan, and the United States, holds the position of the fourth-largest global producer of agrochemicals, as indicated by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and FAO. The agricultural industry in the Asia Pacific region significantly influences per capita income, underscoring its paramount importance in the economic landscape.
