Foliar Spray Market by Type (Nitrogenous, Phosphatic, Potassic and Micronutrients), Form (Powder and Liquid), Application (Horticultural Crops, Field Crops, Turfs & Ornamentals), Region ( North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific) - Global Forecast to 2028

The foliar spray market is projected to grow from USD 7.3 billion in 2023 to USD 9.6 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. Foliar sprays are gaining popularity in agriculture due to their ability to provide crops with the necessary nutrients, resulting in improved growth, yield, and quality. This is particularly important for high-value crops like fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Foliar sprays also reduce the need for excessive use of fertilizers and chemicals, making them an environmentally friendly approach to agriculture. As sustainable agricultural practices gain more attention, the demand for foliar sprays is increasing, as they can be formulated to be environmentally friendly and promote sustainable agriculture. Additionally, the adoption of precision agriculture technologies, like sensors and drones, is driving the demand for foliar spray. Moreover, the demand for foliar sprays is driven by the need for improved crop yield and quality, the adoption of precision agriculture technologies, and the growing awareness of sustainable agricultural practices. 

Potassic is the second largest segment among types of foliar spray in 2022. 

Potassic foliar sprays are an essential type of foliar spray containing potassium, which plays a crucial role in various physiological processes of plants. They are the second-largest segment among types of foliar sprays, following nitrogenous foliar sprays. These sprays are widely used to promote crop growth, increase yield, and improve fruit quality. They also enhance plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stressors and address potassium deficiencies during critical growth stages. The demand for potassic foliar sprays is driven by the growing need for sustainable agriculture practices and the adoption of precision agriculture technologies that enable more targeted and efficient applications.

The application of foliar spray in the field crop is accounting for the largest share of the application segment.

Foliar sprays are widely used in field crops such as cereals, oilseeds, and pulses to provide essential nutrients, promote growth and development, and improve yield. The field crop application segment accounts for the largest share of the foliar spray market. Foliar sprays offer an effective solution to address challenges such as nutrient deficiencies, pests, diseases, and adverse weather conditions that can limit crop growth and yield. The growing demand for high-quality crops and the need for sustainable agriculture practices are driving the adoption of foliar sprays in field crops. They reduce the excessive use of fertilizers and other chemicals, resulting in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to agriculture. Additionally, precision agriculture technologies enable the more targeted and efficient application of foliar sprays in field crops, contributing to the growth of the market segment.

Asia Pacific is projected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period in the foliar spray market.

Asia Pacific is expected to experience significant growth in the foliar spray market during the forecast period.
