預計園藝業在預測期內的年複合成長率最高。這些改良劑,包括有機質、堆肥和生物炭,在改善土壤結構、肥力和持水能力方面發揮著至關重要的作用。由於人們對永續耕作方法的認知不斷增強以及對無化學農產品的渴望,園藝土壤改良劑市場正在穩步成長,為農業領域的製造商和供應商提供了廣闊的機會。
由於永續農業實踐的不斷採用以及對有機農產品的需求不斷成長,預計北美在預測期內將保持最大的市場佔有率。政府促進土壤保護和環境永續性的措施將進一步支持市場擴張。由於對有機農業的日益重視以及提高作物產量的需求不斷成長,該地區的市場預計將持續發展。
預計亞太地區在預測期內將維持最高的年複合成長率。對有機食品的需求不斷成長、政府提倡環保農業實踐的舉措以及精密農業技術的日益採用等因素正在推動市場擴張。此外,農業技術的進步和創新土壤改良產品的可用性進一步促進了該地區的市場勢頭。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Agricultural Soil Amendments Market is accounted for $4.03 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $8.91 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 12.0% during the forecast period. Agricultural soil amendments refer to substances added to soil to improve its physical, chemical, or biological properties, enhancing its fertility and productivity for crop cultivation. These may include organic materials like compost, manure, and biochar, as well as inorganic amendments such as lime, gypsum, and various minerals. The purpose of these amendments is to optimize soil structure, nutrient levels, pH balance, and microbial activity, ultimately promoting healthier plant growth and sustainable agricultural practices.
According to an article published by the IFOAM Organics International, in February 2021, 1.6% of farmland around the world was organic. Hence, the demand for organic food, as well as organic land conditioners, escalated the growth of the land conditioner market.
Increasing demand for organic produce
Consumers are increasingly prioritizing organic farming practices due to growing awareness of health and environmental concerns. This shift is driving the need for soil amendments that support organic agriculture, such as compost, manure, and bio-based fertilizers. As a result, suppliers and manufacturers are adapting their offerings to cater to this escalating demand for organic soil solutions, thereby reshaping the landscape of the agricultural inputs industry.
Limited awareness
The market faces challenges due to limited awareness among farmers about the benefits of soil amendments. Soil amendments, such as compost, biochar, and organic matter, are crucial for improving soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability. Despite the potential to improve soil health, productivity, and sustainability, many agricultural stakeholders remain uninformed about available options and their proper application. This lack of awareness inhibits widespread adoption and limits market growth.
Need for soil quality improvement
Soil amendments play a crucial role in enhancing soil structure, nutrient content, and overall health, thereby promoting optimal plant growth and yields. With rising concerns over environmental sustainability and food security, there is a growing demand for effective soil amendment solutions to restore soil health, mitigate erosion, and support sustainable agricultural practices, driving growth in this market.
High initial costs
The market presents significant challenges due to high initial costs.
