Key drivers

The agricultural fumigants market is forecast to witness a strong growth over the forecast period, owing to the growing use in surface sealing, precision tillage, deep placements, and plow sole application. With the rising concerns over post-harvest loses, the demand for fumigants has increased as they effectively reduce storage loss by preventing crops from termites, insects, and bugs, driving the market growth. Factors which include ongoing technological advancements in the agricultural industry and inclination towards advanced farming practices to increase productivity will further augment the market growth. Moreover, as per the Agricultural Fumigants Market analysis, growing investment by leading players in the research and development activities to launch innocuous and effective agricultural fumigants will offer enormous opportunities to the market. In addition, the growing demand for food owing to the rising population levels have augmented the need for qualitative agricultural productivity, thus, increasing the demand for fumigation to ensure food security. Hence, the global focus on increasing the quantity and quality of agricultural output is expected to increase the demand for agricultural fumigants. According to World Health Organization report, nearly one-third food is wasted or lost due to improper storage. Moreover, as per the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, the agricultural productivity needs to be improved by 70% by 2050 in order to cater the surging demand for food and the demand for agricultural crops is expected to increase to 6,759 million ton by 2050. Thus, the trend is expected to augment the demand for agricultural warehouses, storage technologies, and products, like fumigants to reduce the loss of agricultural products. Therefore, this is expected to boost demand for the agricultural fumigants market across the world. However, fumigants can result in several issues such as phytotoxicity, depending on the type of crop and its fumigant concentration, seasonal conditions, variety, humidity, temperature, and duration of treatment. Thus, owing to the high toxicity of fumigants it is recommended to be used by professional fumigators, which might impede the Agricultural Fumigants Market Size.

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.
