According tStratistics MRC, the Global Biofertilizers Market is accounted for $3.78 billion in 2022 and is expected treach $8.38 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 14.2% during the forecast period. Microorganisms found in biofertilizers contribute tthe development of plants and forests by boosting the availability of vital plant nutrients. Biofertilizers help tincrease the soil's fertility and give it a biological life of its own. These fertilizers are efficient in providing plant nutrients while enhancing soil productivity. By nitrogen-fixing, biofertilizers contribute tan improvement in crop quality because nitrogen-fixing places nitrogen in a plant's roots, protecting them from bacteria. Moreover, it supports rhizobacteria that support plant growth and preserve the soil's initial productivity. Rhizobia are a non-toxic diazotrophic bacterium that increases the soil's ability tretain water.

According tthe India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), horticulture crop production in India was recorded at 320.48 million metric tonnes (MMT) in FY20. Additionally, India’s organic food segment is estimated treach Rs. 75,000 crore (US$ 10.73 billion) by 2025. Furthermore, the Government of India is targeting food grain production of 298 MT in 2020-2021.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing Adoption of Organic Farming

Tincrease the productivity of soil compounds, biofertilizers are utilized as environmentally friendly fertilizers. Plant nutrients are employed with bioinoculants. Potash mobilization contributes tthe solubilization of the intractable tricalcium phosphate or rock phosphate, improving soil stability and enhancing plant development. As a result of the use of rock phosphate, there is an increase in the use of biofertilizers in organic farming. Biofertilizers are preferable tchemical fertilizers since they are safer and contain organic ingredients like nitrogen. Consequently, it reduces the need for fertilizer by 25% t40% while improving crop output by 15% t25%, which boosts the market.

Restraint:

Low Shelf Life of Biofertilizers

Compared tchemical fertilizers, biofertilizers have a shorter suffering life. Compared tchemical fertilizers, biofertilizers have a lower nutrient density for plants. Yet, because they require specialized equipment, they cannot be kept in storage for a long time. Comparing bioinoculants tother fertilizers, they boost crop productive capacity less. The effectiveness of biofertilizers depends on factors that affect soil productivity, including as humidity content, pH level, and organic fertilizers, that are ineffective for treating soil. Thus, the short shelf life could limit market expansion.

Opportunity:

Increasing global population

Demand for biofertilizers is anticipated trise in the coming years as a result of consumer reactions trising prices for foods made synthetically. Food shortage is a serious problem for nations around the globe due tthe world's population growth. This led tthe development of bio-based fertiliser products and the promotion of ecologically friendly agriculture practises among the major agrarian economies of the globe. This is anticipated tenhance demand for biofertilizers over the course of the projection period across all agricultural economies.

Threat:

Lack of proper training

There are some limitations and issues that can prevent market expansion. Market restrictions are projected tinclude things like high fertiliser manufacturing costs as well as a lack of adequate expertise in organic farming.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 epidemic outbreak had little tnimpact on the world market for biofertilizers. This is due tthe widespread and substantial presence of regional producers of biofertilizers. Due tcustomers' heightened health consciousness during the COVID-19 period, the demand for organic food soared. As a result, production alsincreased, which fuelled the desire for biofertilizers in the agricultural sector. Also, during this time, a need for sustainability began temerge, which is projected thave a favorable impact on the global market for biofertilizers during the course of the forecast period.

The cereals & grains segment is expected tbe the largest during the forecast period

The cereals & grains segment is estimated thave a lucrative growth. Biofertilizers help legumes crop soils and root nodules fix atmospheric nitrogen. Rhizobium is utilised as a biofertilizer and crop stimulant tboost grain yield. Gramineous crops including rice, wheat, maize, barley, millets, and other cereals can have a connection with rhizobia without developing nodules or exhibiting disease symptoms. The consumption of biofertilizers is being encouraged by governments in many economies in response tgrowing worries about the degradation of soil quality brought on by the overuse of synthetic fertilisers and their potential negative impacts on human health.

The rhizobium segment is expected thave the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The rhizobium segment is anticipated twitness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due tits vital function as the main supplier of nitrogen in the soil, rhizobium is the most prevalent form of microbe used in agriculture. Rhizobium is an excellent nitrogen-fixing bacterium that alspromotes plant development and helps tsolubilize inorganic phosphate. Its use is alsgrowing, mostly because of its ability tincrease agricultural productivity while lowering the demand for pricy, harmful synthetic fertilisers.

Region with highest share:

North America is projected thold the largest market share during the forecast period owing tthe rise in desire for organic products and the increased use of biofertilizers by normal farmers. The farmers in various emerging and developed countries and regions will increasingly use modern irrigation methods, such as drip and sprinkler irrigation, for fertigation. The market for biofertilizers has experienced substantial expansion as a result of the strict monitoring environment and rising consumer desire for biofertilizers products. Increasing worries about the overuse of chemical fertilizers or nitrate emissions are twmajor reasons that are anticipated tboost the market for biofertilizers in the region over the course of the forecast period.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected thave the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing tenormous expanses under organic farming, the rapid population and economic growth, the expansion of mechanization and irrigation infrastructure, and the presence of numerous organic operators all contribute tthe growth of this regional industry. The market for biofertilizers is expanding in this area due tsupporting government regulations as well as attempts by organizations tadvance and grow the organics industry.
