Biofertilizers Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Crop Type (Cereals, Fruits & Vegetables, Pulses, Plantation Crops), Mode of Application (Soil Treatment, Seed Treatment, Land Treatment), and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Biofertilizers Market is accounted for $2.33 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $6.61 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 13.9% during the forecast period. Factors such as growing organic food industry, increase in awareness pertaining to the need for sustainability, and need for improving soil organic matter are driving the growth of the market. However, high initial investment is hampering the growth of the market.
Biofertilizers are products containing living microbes, which when applied to seed, plant, and soil, stimulate growth by supplying essential nutrients, such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and other mineral nutrients.
Based on the mode of application, the seed treatment segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period as it helps to encapsulate small amounts of functional microorganisms on it, which enables the plant to provide nitrogen for the roots, to uptake the nutrients. By geography, North America is going to have high growth during the forecast period which can be attributed to the increasing acceptance of biofertilizers among rural farmers and high adoption of advanced irrigation systems such as drip & sprinkler irrigation.
Some of the key players profiled in the Biofertilizers Market include Novozymes A/S, Chr. Hansen Holding A/S, National Fertilizers Limited, Kiwa Bio-Tech, Vegalab S.A, Nutramax Laboratories, Inc., Rhizobacter Argentina S.A., Madras Fertilizers Limited, Mapleton Agri Biotech Pt Ltd, Lallemand Inc., Kan Biosys, T.Stanes & Company Limited, International Panaacea Limited, Biomax Naturals, Somphytopharma India Limited, Criyagen, Aumgene Biosciences, and Symborg.
