Soil treatment is a process which includes improvement in the productivity of the soil. Industrialisation coupled with increasing soil and water pollution, has decreased productivity of agricultural land and have rendered it infertile. This negative impact of industrial pollution on fertility soil and productivity has increased the need for soil treatment chemicals.
South Asia Pacific region to remain one of the fastest growing market owing to higher amount of fertile land along to dominance in the agricultural sector. The consumption of soil treatment chemicals is anticipated to account for around 10.7% of global environmental remediation market.
Soil remediation by chemicals demand had rose with a CAGR of 4.6% over the historical period of 2017 and 2022. Demand for soil treatment products is directly proportional to increasing demand for high-quality food grains.
Further, increase in the population coupled with higher demand for food products had boost the demand. These factors along with focus on improving soil productivity by organic ways are expected to play a key role for the higher growth prospects of the market over the forecast period.
Demand for soil treatment chemicals has been estimated to grow with a CAGR of 4.9% over the coming assessment period. Expected recovery from the economic slowdown from first half 2023 is also expected to benefit the consumption volume for the chemicals as improving economy will bolster the crops production.
Key influencing factors for the growth of the market includes requirement for maintaining productivity of the agricultural land, protection of ground water, etc. Soil treatment processes had become an integral part of agriculture and farming all over the globe.
If chemical fertilisers including pesticides and insecticides are being used in excess amounts, it will make the soil acidic, which has to be maintained for crop yield, thus bolstering the demand for soil treatment chemicals.
Furthermore, these products help in maintaining ideal soil conditions and help in balancing pH, increasing moisture retention, restoring microbial activity and reducing compaction for proper growth of the crop. The increasing use of soil treatment chemicals owing to their versatility is expected to drive the growth of soil treatment chemicals market.
With various growth factors influencing the market growth, there lies ahead certain challenges for the market. Lack of awareness and technical knowledge among the farmers for enhancing their agricultural land performance is expected to remain one of the key aspect to hinder the market growth outlook.
Rise in the practice of organic farming is also impacting the market outlook, as organic farming do not pollute soil. Owing to increasing health awareness key developed region like North America and Europe are highly focusing on organic farming to produce food without chemicals owing.
North America and Europe are dominating the market of soil treatment chemicals owing to higher concerns about arable land in these regions. Increase in soil infertility and growth in soil pollution in these regions over the past decades has resulted in higher consumption volume of soil treatment.
Moreover, demand for soil aeration, along with stringency in the government regulations for the use of chemicals for agriculture and rising awareness to enhance soil fertility are key growth drivers for the market in North America and Europe.
North America is anticipated to account for around 31.4% of the global demand for soil treatment chemicals. Presence of large cultivable land has boosted the demand in North America. South Asia Pacific region to witness a higher growth in the global market owing to significant crop production, adaptability of innovative solutions for soil treatment and enhancing the performance of the soil.
