簡介目錄

概述

2022年，全球聚合物包膜尿素市場達到10.351億美元，預計到2030年將達到16.622億美元，2023-2030年預測期間年複合成長率為6.1%。

全球人口的成長和飲食習慣的變化給農業帶來了利用有限資源生產更多產品的壓力。聚合物包膜尿素提高養分利用效率、減少肥料浪費的能力在滿足這一需求方面發揮了作用。 PCU 在水果、蔬菜和特種作物等高價值作物中的採用更為明顯。這些作物通常需要精確的養分管理才能實現最佳產量和品質，這使得 PCU 成為一個有吸引力的選擇。

由於對環境退化的擔憂和最佳化資源利用的需要，人們越來越重視永續農業實踐。聚合物塗層尿素（如聚脲塗層尿素）在 24 小時內釋放出 0.3% 的尿素，而基於聚乙烯的塗層材料在 2 天內釋放出 3% 的尿素。聚合物包膜尿素能夠通過浸出和揮發減少氮素損失，這對尋求環保肥料選擇的農民來說很有吸引力。

市場動態

人們對聚合物包膜尿素的好處的認知不斷提高

緩釋肥料，如聚合物包膜尿素，旨在在較長時間內逐漸釋放養分。這種控制釋放有助於減少因淋濾、揮發和徑流造成的養分損失，從而提高養分利用效率。農民和農業專業人士越來越認知到使用肥料來提高養分效率的重要性。

聚合物包膜尿素等緩釋肥料可以在作物的整個生長周期中為作物提供持續的養分供應。這種穩定的養分可用性可以對作物產量和品質產生積極影響。隨著農民努力提高生產力並實現更高的產量，他們正在轉向緩釋肥料來支持他們的目標。 2022 年 8 月，Sollio Cooperative Group 和 Pursell Agri-Tech 合作建造和營運一座耗資 2000 萬美元的新工廠，用於生產控釋肥料。這些肥料塗有聚合物，可逐漸將養分釋放到土壤中。

人口成長導致食品需求增加

據聯合國糧農組織預測，到2050年，世界糧食產量需要增加70%才能養活世界人口。隨著全球人口不斷成長，對糧食的需求不斷增加。這種不斷成長的需求給農業系統帶來了生產更多農作物並提高其品質的壓力。滿足這一需求的一種方法是使用肥料，它為植物提供必需的營養，幫助它們生長得更快、更健康。

為了應對這些挑戰，聚合物包膜尿素肥料被開發出來並受到歡迎。這些包膜肥料包括包有薄聚合物層的尿素顆粒。這種塗層形成了一個半滲透屏障，可以調節氮從顆粒到土壤的排放。釋放速率可以根據溫度、土壤濕度和微生物活動等因素進行控制。結果，養分穩定釋放，促進植物生長並減少養分流失到環境中。

農民對聚合物包膜尿素肥料的益處認知有限

農民多年來一直使用傳統肥料。改用新型先進肥料需要認知和理解它所提供的好處。熟悉傳統做法可能會對變革產生阻力，從而阻礙 PCU 的採用。如果沒有足夠的知識，農民可能會猶豫是否採用這些肥料，而堅持使用傳統的尿素或他們更熟悉的其他肥料。

PCU的前期成本高於傳統尿素。儘管 PCU 的長期效益（例如減少化肥使用量和提高作物產量）通常超過初始投資，但不了解這些優勢的農民可能會因成本較高而望而卻步。

COVID-19 影響分析

這一流行病擾亂了全球供應鏈，影響了包括化肥在內的各種商品的生產和分配。原料和成品運輸的延誤可能導致聚合物包膜尿素的短期供應限制。

疫情對不同地區農業部門的影響不同。在許多地方，由於封鎖和行動限制，農業活動面臨勞動力短缺、物流和市場混亂等挑戰。這些受影響的農業活動導致對包括聚合物包膜尿素在內的先進農產品的需求減少。

Overview

Global Polymer Coated Urea Market reached US$ 1035.1 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 1662.2 million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

The global population's growth and changing dietary habits put pressure on agriculture to produce more with limited resources. Polymer-coated urea's ability to improve nutrient use efficiency and reduce fertilizer wastage played a role in meeting this demand. The adoption of PCU was more pronounced in high-value crops such as fruits, vegetables and specialty crops. These crops often require precise nutrient management to achieve optimal yields and quality, making PCU an attractive option.

With concerns about environmental degradation and the need to optimize resource utilization, there was a growing emphasis on sustainable agricultural practices. Polymer-coated urea like polyurea-coated urea, displayed 0.3% urea release within 24 hours, whereas polyethylene-based coating material showed 3% release in 2 days. Polymer-coated urea's ability to reduce nitrogen loss through leaching and volatilization made it attractive to farmers seeking environmentally friendly fertilizer options.

Market Dynamics

Rising Awareness About the Benefits of Polymer Coated Urea

Slow-release fertilizers, like polymer-coated urea, are designed to release nutrients gradually over a prolonged period. This controlled release helps to improve nutrient use efficiency by decreasing nutrient losses due to leaching, volatilization and runoff. Farmers and agricultural professionals are increasingly recognizing the importance of using fertilizers that offer improved nutrient efficiency.

Slow-release fertilizers like polymer-coated urea can provide a sustained supply of nutrients to crops throughout their growth cycle. This steady nutrient availability can positively impact crop yield and quality. As farmers strive to improve productivity and achieve higher yields, they are turning to slow-release fertilizers to support their goals. In August 2022, Sollio Cooperative Group and Pursell Agri-Tech collaborated to build and operate a new $20 million plant for the production of controlled-release fertilizers. These fertilizers are coated with polymer which gradually release nutrients into the soil.

Increasing Demand for Food due to the Growing Population

As per FAO, world food production needs to increase by 70% to feed the world population in 2050. As the global population continuously grows, the demand for food has been increasing. This growing demand results in pressure on agricultural systems to produce larger amounts of crops and enhance their quality. One way to fulfill this demand is through the use of fertilizers, which offer essential nutrients to plants, helping them grow faster and healthier.

To fulfill these challenges, polymer-coated urea fertilizers have been developed and gained popularity. These coated fertilizers include urea granules coated with a thin polymer layer. This coating creates a semi-permeable barrier that regulates the discharge of nitrogen from the granules to the soil. The release rate can be controlled based on factors like temperature, soil moisture and microbial activity. As a result, the nutrients are released steadily, enhancing the plant's growth and lowering nutrient losses to the environment.

Limited Awareness Among Farmers about the Benefits of Polymer Coated Urea Fertilizers

Farmers have been using conventional fertilizers for years. Switching to a new advanced type of fertilizer requires awareness and understanding of the benefits it offers. Familiarity with traditional practices can create resistance to change, hindering the adoption of PCU. Without adequate knowledge, Farmers may be hesitant to adopt these fertilizers and stick to traditional urea or other fertilizers they are more familiar with.

The upfront cost of PCU is higher than that of conventional urea. Though the long-term benefits of PCU, such as reduced fertilizer usage and improved crop yields, often outweigh the initial investment, farmers who are not aware of these advantages may be deterred by the perceived higher costs.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The pandemic disrupted supply chains worldwide, affecting the production and distribution of various goods, including fertilizers. Delays in the transportation of raw materials and finished products could have led to short-term supply constraints for polymer-coated urea.

The pandemic affected the agricultural sector differently in various regions. In many places, due to lockdowns and restrictions on movement, agricultural activities faced challenges with labor shortages, logistics and market disruptions. These affected agricultural activities cause lesser demand for advanced agricultural products including polymer-coated urea.

Segment Analysis

The global polymer-coated urea market is segmented based on type, crop, distribution channel, application, end-user and region.

Rising Demand For Polymer Coated Urea in Cereals and Grains Production

Cereals and grains are staple food crops and are widely consumed around the world. Polymer-coated urea's controlled-release mechanism is particularly advantageous for cereals and grains. These crops have different growth stages and nutrient requirements throughout their lifecycle. PCU's ability to release nitrogen gradually aligns with the changing needs of cereals and grains, leading to more efficient nutrient utilization and improved crop performance.

Polymer-coated urea's controlled-release technology minimizes nutrient losses, such as leaching and volatilization, which are common challenges in cereal and grain production. The enhanced nutrient use efficiency of polymer-coated urea ensures that a higher proportion of the applied nitrogen is taken up by the crops, leading to improved yields and reduced environmental impact. For instance, Polymer-coated urea increases maize yield and plant N uptake by 23% and 48%, respectively, compared with urea in the low-lying silt loam soils of Missouri, USA.

Geographical Analysis

Rising Demand for Fertilizers in Europe

According to data from the industry association Fertilizers Europe, Russia and Belarus provide as much as 60% of the EU's fertilizer supply. However, since the start of the Russia-Ukraine war, European production of chemical fertilizers has been hard hit by the high gas prices European countries have seen. As a result, in August 2022, Yara implemented curtailments which will take total European ammonia capacity utilization to around 35%. With this, Yara will have curtailed an annual capacity equivalent of 3.1 million tonnes of ammonia and 4.0 million tonnes of finished products (1.8 million tonnes of urea, 1.9 million tonnes of nitrates and 0.3 million tonnes NPK) across its production system in Europe.

The region has a substantial agricultural sector that needs efficient and sustainable fertilization in these intensive farming systems driving the demand for advanced fertilizers like polymer-coated urea. In September 2022, ICL, launched biodegradable coated fertilizer technology, Eqo.x. This solution is achieved through a coating, which helps farmers in maximizing agricultural crop performance, by reducing nutrient loss and increasing nutrient use efficiency up to 80%. Eqo.x release technology was specifically designed to meet future European fertilizer standards set to go into effect in 2026.
