Market Dynamic 

Key Drivers and Emerging Trends

The rising population increases the demand for agricultural productivity and drives the growth of the agricultural fumigants market. Agricultural fumigants are used to avoid insects, weeds, and rodents from the soil. There are fumigant pesticides used after harvest to kill small insects in grains and crops. Increasing awareness among farmers is adding fuel to the growth of the market. Moreover, post-harvest losses arise from the freshly harvested crops during handling. Fumigation helps maintain the quality of agricultural commodities and prevent post-harvest losses, which may further support the

agricultural fumigants market.

Additionally, to produce a sufficient amount of food on a minimum arable land, the use of advanced agricultural technologies and improved agricultural practices has increased across the globe. To maintain the demand-supply gap throughout the year, these agricultural productions are stored in warehouses and silos. Therefore, manufacturers are focusing on new product developments by investing in R&D activities for active ingredients which can inhibit resistant insects by using these alternative fumigants.

Restraint in the Agricultural Fumigants Market

However, the usage of Agricultural Fumigants such as acrylonitrile or methyl bromide remains as a residue, which can cause damage to human healthcare. For example, acrylonitrile remains in wheat for several days. Further, high-cost labor is involved in applying fumigants. Fumigations is a highly technical procedure that requires skilled operators. Therefore, high labor expense can be a further restriction in the growth of the Agricultural Fumigants market.

Product Type – Segment Analysis

Based on product type, the phosphine fumigants segment is expected to witness higher growth in the coming years. This segment is mainly attributed to its increased usage in both developed and developing countries. It is less toxic in nature as compared to other fumigants such as methyl bromide. Other factors such as a high degree of penetration, easy availability, more effectiveness is further propelling the growth of the phosphine fumigants market.

Application – Segment Analysis

Based on application, the warehouse segment is expected to witness higher sales in the coming years. Warehouses are essential as farmers can store their agricultural produce as long as they are not willing to sell it. The high prevalence of pest attacks during storage has led to the adoption of fumigants that helps in maintaining crop quality and productivity. Several methods are deployed to kill insects, nematodes, and other pests that can cause damage to the stored foods in warehouses. For instance, methyl bromide is a widely used fumigant and is used mainly during quarantine or pre-shipment applications.

Pest-Control Method – Segment Analysis

Based on pest-control method, the structural fumigant segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR over the forecast period. Structural fumigation is used to control pests in soil, grains, and food processing that is to be imported or exported to avoid transfer of any exotic organism as structural fumigation covers the entire area to ensure the proper action. It is gaining popularity due to its efficiency in function.
