The biostimulants market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.14 billion in 2023 to $3.47 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The historic growth in the biostimulants sector can be attributed to the growing need for sustainable agriculture, increased demand for organic products, advancements in research, and supportive government initiatives and regulations.
The biostimulants market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.25 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. Projected growth in the biostimulants sector is fueled by climate-adaptive agriculture, consumer demand for healthier and sustainable foods, and the need for high-value crops to meet global food requirements. Key trends include customized crop solutions, synergistic combinations for optimal productivity, nanotechnology for enhanced compounds, sustainable yield enhancement, and cross-sector collaborations.
The expansion of the biostimulant market is closely tied to the growth of sustainable agriculture, a response to pressing concerns such as soil degradation, water scarcity, climate change, and the need for high crop yields. Sustainable agriculture prohibits the use of synthetic products such as fertilizers and pesticides, which can degrade soil quality and harm the environment. Biostimulants, in contrast, bolster plant stimulation for nutrient absorption and assist in managing biotic stress. Notably, the United Nations' sustainable development goals for 2030 emphasize sustainable agriculture, promoting the use of biostimulants to cultivate pesticide- and fertilizer-free crops, particularly under adverse conditions. By supporting crop growth amid stress, biostimulants play a pivotal role in sustainable agriculture, consequently propelling the biostimulant market.
The rising consumer demand for organic food is poised to further drive the growth of biostimulants. Organic food production relies on environmentally sustainable farming practices, minimizing synthetic chemicals. Biostimulants play a crucial role in enhancing crop yield, quality, and sustainability by improving plant growth, nutrient absorption, and stress tolerance. For instance, data from the Organic Trade Association in May 2023 highlighted a steady increase in organic food sales from 2021 to 2022, totaling 59,149 and 61,670 respectively. This escalating demand for organic food directly contributes to the growing traction in the biostimulants market as these products aid in meeting the criteria for organic farming and sustainable crop production.
Companies within the biostimulant market are actively introducing innovative products to cater to customer demands and gain a competitive advantage. Notably, startups are increasingly entering this market with novel offerings. For instance, in June 2022, a Spanish biostimulation and sustainable crop nutrition provider unveiled Biimore, a globally introduced biostimulant. This product stands out due to its unique composition derived from a sustainable plant fermentation process involving L-α amino acids, vitamins, sugars, and distinct natural compounds absent in other biostimulants. Biimore enhances yield and quality parameters at exceptionally low doses. Moreover, in September 2022, Evonik Industries, a German specialty chemicals company, initiated the development of an innovative biostimulant aimed at halving fertilizer use while retaining 93% of yields, slated for launch between 2025 and 2027.
Major players in the biostimulants sector are equally committed to innovation, exemplified by products such as NeoVita 43, designed to offer dependable services to customers. NeoVita 43, an agricultural biostimulant, enhances corn yields by optimizing nutrient utilization efficiency. For instance, in October 2023, The Archer-Daniels-Midland Company, a leading US-based food processing entity, introduced NeoVita 43. This biostimulant, applied alongside liquid starter fertilizer during planting, eliminates the need for additional mixing or special handling. NeoVita 43 significantly improves nutrient availability, uptake, utilization efficiency, stress tolerance, and subsequent growth, development, quality, and yield in crops.
In November 2022, J.M. Huber Corporation, a US-based chemical manufacturing company, successfully acquired Biolchim Group for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move aligns with Huber's goal of becoming the global leader in sustainable, high-performance agricultural products. Biolchim Group, based in Italy, specializes in manufacturing a comprehensive range of specialty plant nutrition and biostimulants.
