BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the Brazil Crop Protection Chemicals Market size by value at USD 1.55 billion in 2023. During the forecast period between 2024 and 2030, BlueWeave expects the Brazil Crop Protection Chemicals Market size to expand at a CAGR of 5.12% reaching a value of USD 3.05 billion by 2030. The Crop Protection Chemicals Market in Brazil is propelled by the rising population and subsequent demand for increased food production, coupled with farmers' growing awareness about the advantages of using crop protection pesticides, and ongoing research and development efforts to develop environmentally friendly formulations. Both large-scale commercial farms and small family-owned farms are increasingly using crop protection pesticides to protect crops from pests and diseases, which boosts yields and profitability. Additionally, the need to meet global food demand, driven by a growing population, further escalates the demand for these pesticides. Incentives and subsidies by the Brazilian government also play a crucial role by making crop protection products more affordable and accessible, thereby supporting market growth. Also, Brazilian farmers are becoming more aware of the advantages of using crop protection pesticides to ensure crop health and productivity, which contributes to market growth. The chemical industry's expansion and the increased production and distribution of these pesticides, fueled by rising demand and investment in R&D for effective and eco-friendly formulations, are significant growth drivers. The agribusiness sector's need for a reliable, high-quality supply of agricultural products for processing, distribution, and export also promotes the use of crop protection pesticides, ensuring that production standards are met for both domestic and international markets, thus fostering a positive market outlook.
By volume, BlueWeave estimated the Brazil Crop Protection Chemicals Market size at 0.05 million metric tons in 2023. During the forecast period between 2024 and 2030, BlueWeave expects the Brazil Crop Protection Chemicals Market size by volume is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.46% reaching the volume of 1.02 million metric tons by 2030. For the 2023/2024 crop season, the pesticide-treated area in Brazil was estimated to rise by 3.7% compared to the previous season, driven by the expansion of soybean cultivation and El Niño-induced climatic conditions increasing pests and diseases.
