Water Soluble Fertilizers Will Witness Substantial Growth Owing To Rising Demand For Fruits & Vegetables In Light Of Growing Population

Industry : Agrochemicals & Fertilizers    

Water soluble fertilizers are available both in powdered and liquid form and find high usage in the plantation, field, medicinal and aromatic crops. These products enhance the quality and quantity of food crops and protect plants from diseases and crop-damaging insects.

Water soluble fertilizers include NPK, ammonium sulfate, dipotassium phosphate, potassium nitrate and monopotassium phosphate. Increasing demand for food crops, food grains, vegetables and fruits on account of growing population in Asia Pacific is expected to increase the industry size over the forecast period.

Rising consumption of potassium as it stimulates growth, improves resistance to insects & diseases, enhances the efficiency of water usage and increases protein production will further propel industry growth over the upcoming years. Rising adoption of micro irrigation as it distributes fertilizers evenly and improves growth efficiency will increase demand for the product.

Limited availability of arable land on account of growing industrialization coupled with the rising population will increase consumption of the product over the next eight years, However, fluctuating raw material prices coupled with mounting demand for organic fertilizers will restrict the market expansion over the forecast period.
