Global Agricultural Antibacterials Market - 2023-2030

Global Agricultural Antibacterials Market - 2023-2030

Global Antibacterial Market in Agriculture reached US$ 8.55 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 12.67 billion by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

The global antibacterial market in agriculture has witnessed significant growth and transformations over the years, as antibacterial agents can be used to protect plants from bacterial diseases. Antibacterial treatments may be applied to seeds to prevent bacterial infections in the early stages of plant growth. It also helps in improving soil health by promoting the growth of beneficial microbes in the soil which can help in increase in the adoption of antibacterials in agriculture.

Furthermore, antibacterials are used in different varieties of crops as it helps in improving crop productivity. For instance, according to Indian Trade Portal the production of oilseeds in India in 2020-2021, the country produced about 365.65 lakh tons which was a 10% increase from the previous year. Hence, the increase in production can help increase the adoption rate.

Additionally, antibacterial agents can help in controlling the spread of infection from one plant to another. It contains different types which are used based on crop and farmer's needs For example, copper-based compounds are often used as antibacterial treatments to control bacterial blight in crops like tomatoes and potatoes. Hence, such different types can help in increasing the availability of antibacterial in agriculture.

Dynamics

Increase in Demand for High-Quality Yield

The demand for high-quality yield is increasing the farmers and producers seeking for alternatives to conventional pesticides and fungicides. The demand for antibacterials in agriculture is rising as they effectively control bacterial diseases in the crop and help in producing high-quality yield. It also helps in enhancing the growth of beneficial bacteria in soil and helps in improving soil health, hence it can lead to an increase in the adoption rate for antibacterials in agriculture.

Furthermore, many manufacturing companies are producing innovative high-quality products in order to increase disease management efficiency. For instance, Valent BioSciences company has produced a Gnatrol Biological Larvicide. Which helps in controlling the fungus gnat larvae by using naturally occurring bacterial strain Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis strain AM65-52 in house plants, ornamentals and vegetables. Such innovative high-quality products can help in increasing the market size.

Increase in Demand for Disease Resistance Crops

The demand for disease-resistant crops is driven by the desire for antibacterial. The antibacterial helps in eradicating bacterial diseases in the crops and provides resistance against a wide range of pathogens, including bacteria viruses, fungi and nematodes it also helps in reducing the dependency on chemical treatments. Hence such factors help increase the adoption of antibacterials in agriculture.

Furthermore, the damages caused by diseases, pests, and others in fruits and vegetables lead to rising in prices of them. For instance, according to the report published in The Economic Times in June 2023, the prices of tomatoes, ginger and tur dal are raised due to damage caused by the newer plant viruses that are resistant to most pesticides. Hence, farmers are opting for antibacterials to eradicate such diseases which helps in increasing the market growth.

Development of Resistance

The antibiotics which are being used in agriculture to inhibit the growth or kill bacteria, over a period of time the bacteria could develop resistance against the antibacterial drugs which could increase the excessive usage of antibacterial and could lead to increasing in antibiotics residues in crops which can cause adverse health effects to humans. Hence, it can hamper the growth of the market.

Furthermore, many countries' government has taken some restrictions on the usage of antibiotics in agriculture. For instance, According to the National Library of Medicine's U.S. report of 2023, the Chinese government has taken some strict regulations in the usage of antibiotics in order to control antimicrobial resistance. Hence, these regulations can cause declination in market growth.

Segment Analysis

The global antibacterial market in agriculture is segmented based on type, crop, mode of action, form, formulation, distribution channel, mode of application, and region.

Increase in Demand for Effective Disease Management

The antibiotics antibacterial segment holds the maximum share in the global antibacterial market in agriculture. Farmers are adopting these antibiotics in agriculture as they are effective in controlling or preventing some bacterial diseases. Antibiotics antibacterial drugs are more widely on different varieties of crops such as apples, pears and some others. Hence, the usage of antibiotics in agriculture can help increase the adoption rate for the antibacterial market in agriculture.

Furthermore, many manufacturing companies are producing high-quality products which helps farmers effectively prevent bacterial disease. For instance, Valent Biosciences company has produced a LEAP. This product is an alternative to copper-based products and contains Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki (Btk) strain ABTS-351 and methyl salicylate. It helps in suppresses bacterial plant diseases and controls caterpillar pests. Hence, such effective high-quality products can help in increasing the adoption rate.

Geographical Penetration

The Increase in the Production of Cereals and Presence of Vast Agriculture Land

Asia-Pacific has been a dominant force in the global Antibacterial Market in agriculture and its significance has only grown in the post-2020 era. Farmers in this region are highly adopting antibacterial in agriculture as they protect plants from bacterial diseases and also antibacterial treatments may be applied to seeds to prevent bacterial infections in the early stages of plant growth. Hence, these factors help in increasing the market growth.

Furthermore, the higher cultivation of cereals & grains helps in increasing the usage of antibiotics in agriculture which helps in increasing in demand for antibacterials in agriculture. For instance, according to the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Exports Development Authority (APEDA) in India the production of major cereals such as rice, maize and bajra accounts for 102.36 million tons, 19.88 million tons and 9.23 million tons respectively. Hence, it can lead to an increase in the antibacterial market in agriculture.

Additionally, the vast agricultural practices can help increase the usage of antibacterials in agriculture. For instance, Department of Agriculture, Fishery and Forestry report of 2023, 55% of Australian land use accounts for 427 million hectares. The increase in agriculture practices can help in increasing the adoption antibacterial in agriculture.

Competitive Landscape

The major global players in the market include Valent BioSciences LLC, Syngenta, Corteva Agriscience, Adama Agricultural Solutions Ltd., BASF SE, Bayer CropScience AG, FMC Corporation, Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., Nufarm Limited and OHP Inc.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis
