Agrochemicals Market Outlook – Increasing Demand for Food Grains is Augmenting Market Growth

The global agrochemicals market is expected witness significant growth during the forecast period, owing increasing global population and increasing demand for food grains. Growing urbanization took place in the recent past has led to steep decline in farmlands. For instance, according to Pfeffer and others, in 2006, total farmland in the U.S. reduced from 1,151 million acres in 1949 to 921 million acres in 2002. This has led to adoption of duel cultivation, wherein farmers use various pesticides to improve crop yield and fertilizers to maintain fertility of the soil. For instance, according to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations forecast, in 2016, world cereal production was pegged at around 2,543 million ton, which is 0.6% higher than in 2015 and 0.7% lower than in 2014. At that level, production was 17.3 million ton higher than expected in May, which showed upward revisions for wheat production in Argentina, Russian Federation, and EU. This has led to high lucrative environment for growth of the global agrochemicals market.
