Agriculture segment accounted for the largest market share of 79.9% and accounted for US$ 3,231.5 million in 2021.
In the agriculture industry, potassium sulphate is utilized as a fertilizer for crops that are sensitive to chlorine. Chlorine sensitivity is predominantly observed in crops such as potatoes, tobacco, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. The increasing production of these crops across the world has bolstered growth of the agriculture segment in the global potassium sulphate market. For instance, according to the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), China, India, and Russia were among the largest producers of potato with a combined production of around 170 Mn tons in 2015.
Market Dynamics
North America potassium sulphate market growth is mainly driven by presence of major market players and their strategies such as mergers and acquisitions, product launches, and partnerships with fertilizer manufacturers. For instance, in 2016, compass minerals launched Potassium+ Organic. It is an organic sulphate of potash (SOP), which offers high potassium and plant-available sulphate sulfur. This product is approved for organic food production by various organization such as the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI), California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), and USDA National Organic Standards Board (NOSB).
Latin America is a major consumer of potassium sulphate, owing to the presence of emerging economies such as Argentina and Brazil among others. The rising population in the region has resulted in need to increase agricultural yield from available farmland. For instance, according to the World Bank data, the population of Brazil and Argentina is expected to grow at a rate of 0.8% and 1.0%, respectively. The fertilizer consumption per hectare in Argentina and Brazil was pegged at 36.0 kg/ha and 175.2 kg/ha, respectively.
