The secondary macronutrients market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $40.08 billion in 2023 to $41.96 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to an increased demand for secondary macronutrients, urbanization, and infrastructure development. The expanding agricultural sector, a heightened emphasis on sustainability, and fluctuations in raw material prices also contributed to this growth.
The secondary macronutrients market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $49.93 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%. The forecasted growth can be linked to a surge in agricultural activities, a heightened demand for food products, initiatives promoting environmental sustainability, urbanization, and ongoing infrastructure development. Additionally, regulatory backing for soil health further contributes to this anticipated growth. Key trends in the forecast period encompass research and development, a growing awareness of nutrient deficiencies, governmental backing for agricultural modernization, the increasing global population, and a focus on supply chain resilience and efficiency.
The anticipated expansion of the agriculture industry is set to drive the growth of the secondary macronutrients market in the near future. The agriculture industry encompasses crop and livestock farming, farming engineering, and the production of agricultural equipment, chemical fertilizers, and related items. Secondary macronutrients play a vital role in agricultural practices by promoting optimal plant growth and enhancing soil fertility. These nutrients contribute to maintaining the proper nutrient balance in soils and plants, optimizing soil pH, improving soil aggregation, enhancing water infiltration, and facilitating nutrient assimilation for increased crop productivity. For example, in February 2023, the United States Department of Agriculture reported an 11% growth, equivalent to $19.5 billion, in U.S. agricultural exports compared to the previous record established in 2021, underscoring the positive impact of the expanding agriculture industry on the secondary macronutrients market.
The escalating challenges posed by climate change are expected to drive the growth of the secondary micronutrient market in the foreseeable future. Climate change refers to long-term alterations in global or regional climate patterns, characterized by shifts in temperature, precipitation, and weather conditions. The unpredictable weather patterns and changing soil conditions associated with climate change heighten the importance of secondary micronutrients as a crucial solution to address nutrient deficiencies and enhance plant health amid evolving environmental challenges. According to a report published by the World Health Organization in October 2023, approximately 3.6 billion people reside in regions highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. The report also projects that climate change will result in an estimated annual increase of around 250,000 deaths from 2030 to 2050 due to factors such as undernutrition, malaria, diarrhea, and heat stress, further emphasizing the role of secondary micronutrients in mitigating these challenges.
Major companies in the secondary micronutrient market are actively developing innovative products, such as crop nutrition solutions and granular micronutrients, to expand their customer bases, boost sales, and increase revenue. Crop nutrition solutions involve a tailored approach to providing essential nutrients to plants for optimal growth, development, and overall health. In November 2021, Smartchem Technologies Limited (STL) introduced CROPTEK, a specialized crop nutrition solution designed for progressive onion farmers. This product stands out as the first of its kind, offering a comprehensive blend of essential primary, secondary, and micronutrients specifically formulated for optimal onion crop development.
Major companies in the secondary micronutrient market are focusing on the development of innovative products such as granular micronutrients to meet growing demand. Granular micronutrients are formulated in a solid or granular form.
