Biology in Bloom: Unearthing the Green Revolution of Agricultural Biologicals
Description: The agricultural
biologicals market encompasses the production, distribution, and
utilization of biological products in farming practices. These products,
derived from natural substances and microorganisms, aim to enhance crop
productivity, protect plants from pests and diseases, and improve soil health.
According to a MarketsandMarkets research report, the agricultural biologicals
market is projected to reach USD 27.9 billion by 2028, growing from USD 14.6
billion in 2023, with a CAGR of 13.8% during the forecast period. Download PDF brochure: https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/pdfdownloadNew.asp?id=100393324 The market includes various agricultural biological
products: Biopesticides: These eco-friendly alternatives to
conventional chemical pesticides are derived from living organisms like
bacteria, fungi, or plant extracts. Biopesticides target pests and diseases
while minimizing harm to non-target organisms and the environment. Biofertilizers: These natural microorganisms promote plant
growth and nutrient uptake. They enrich soil with beneficial bacteria, fungi,
or microorganisms that fix nitrogen, solubilize phosphorus, and enhance
nutrient availability. Biostimulants: Enhancing plant vigor, stress tolerance, and
crop yield, biostimulants improve plant metabolism when applied to plants or
soil. They do not directly provide nutrition but enhance natural processes. Biological Seed Treatments: These agents protect seeds from
diseases and support early seedling growth and establishment. The Agricultural Biologicals Market holds immense
importance for agriculture, the environment, and sustainable food production
due to several reasons: Environmentally Friendly Farming: By promoting sustainable
and less harmful farming practices, agricultural biologicals offer eco-friendly
alternatives to synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, minimizing negative
impacts on ecosystems and water quality. Reduced Chemical Residues: The use of agricultural
biologicals leads to safer food products with reduced chemical residues, addressing
consumer concerns about pesticide residues in the food chain. Enhanced Crop Health and Yield: Agricultural biologicals
improve crop health, nutrient uptake, and yields by protecting plants from
pests and diseases and promoting growth. Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Integrated pest management
strategies incorporate agricultural biologicals, reducing the reliance on
chemical pesticides and managing pest populations sustainably. Soil Health Improvement: Biological products contribute to
soil health by increasing microbial activity, nutrient availability, and
organic matter content, leading to better soil fertility and water retention. View detailed Table of Content here - https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/Market-Reports/agricultural-biological-market-100393324.html The South American region is expected to boost market growth
during the forecast period. With vast agricultural lands, there is increasing
awareness of the environmental impact of conventional practices. To address
these concerns, there is a growing demand for agricultural biologicals, which
provide sustainable alternatives and comply with stringent regulations in international
markets, where South American countries are significant agricultural commodity
exporters.
Key players in the agricultural biologicals market include
BASF SE (Germany), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), Bayer AG (Germany), UPL (India),
and Corteva Agriscience (US). These companies are expanding their presence
through agreements, partnerships, acquisitions, and collaborations,
strengthening their manufacturing facilities and distribution networks across
North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe.
