Liquid Potassium Fertilizers Market Report 2026

The liquid potassium fertilizers market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.96 billion in 2025 to $2.07 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of irrigated agriculture, increasing fertilizer consumption in intensive farming, rising awareness of balanced crop nutrition, growth of fruit and vegetable cultivation, availability of liquid fertilizer formulations.

The liquid potassium fertilizers market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.59 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of precision agriculture practices, rising demand for high-efficiency fertilizers, expansion of controlled-environment farming, growing focus on sustainable nutrient management, increasing use of digital farm advisory platforms. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of fertigation-based nutrition, rising demand for water-soluble potassium solutions, growing use in high-value crops, expansion of precision nutrient application, enhanced focus on crop stress resistance.

Rising demand for agrochemicals is expected to drive the growth of the liquid potassium fertilizers market in the coming years. Agrochemicals include chemical substances used in agriculture to enhance crop production, protect crops from pests, diseases, and weeds, and preserve harvested produce. This category encompasses fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and other agricultural chemicals. Liquid potassium fertilizers are widely used to supply crops with potassium, a vital nutrient essential for plant growth and development. Potassium supports key plant processes such as photosynthesis, water balance regulation, and enzyme activation. Deficiencies can result in stunted growth, reduced yields, and lower-quality produce, further boosting the demand for liquid potassium fertilizers. For example, in July 2025, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a UN specialized agency based in Italy, reported that in 2023, Oceania recorded the highest pesticide usage, averaging 5.64 kg per hectare of cropland, 2.55 grams per international dollar of agricultural production, and 2.44 kg per capita. Therefore, the rising demand for agrochemicals is fueling the liquid potassium fertilizers market.

Key players in the liquid potassium fertilizer market are investing in strategic initiatives such as facility expansions to enhance profitability and meet growing demand. Facility expansion projects involve increasing or upgrading physical capacities within existing plants to improve operational efficiency and output. For instance, in September 2023, Van Iperen International B.V., a Netherlands-based manufacturer of specialty fertilizers and biostimulants, announced plans to expand its GreenSwitch Nitrate factory at the Agro Energie Hardenberg biogas facility. This plant produces the first liquid potassium nitrate fertilizer with an almost zero carbon footprint using an organic nitrogen source. The expansion, scheduled for completion in 2024, includes installing a second bioreactor from Pure Green Agriculture, boosting capacity and efficiency, diversifying sustainable nitrate fertilizer offerings, and enabling the production of nitric acid alongside liquid potassium nitrate. The project is supported by a DEI+ subsidy under the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy’s program for innovative sustainable energy initiatives.

In June 2024, Interoceanic Corporation, a U.S.-based firm specializing in agricultural products and solutions, announced its acquisition of Bonus Crop Fertilizer for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is part of Interoceanic Corporation's strategy to bolster its presence in the fertilizer market, with a focus on enhancing its product offerings and broadening its influence within the agricultural sector. Bonus Crop Fertilizer is recognized as a U.S. company that provides high-quality, innovative fertilizer solutions aimed at improving crop yields and promoting sustainable farming practices.
