What Are The Primary Growth Drivers In The Biochar Fertilizer Market?
The anticipated expansion of the agricultural industry is seen as a driving force behind the growth of the biochar fertilizer market. Serving as a major economic sector, the agriculture industry focuses on the production and processing of agricultural goods, such as crops and livestock, among others. It markedly heightens both productivity and efficiency by employing precision farming techniques, cultivating durable crop varieties, and rolling out automated farming systems. Biochar fertilizer elevates soil health and nutrient retention, fostering sustainable agricultural practices by enhancing soil fertility and lessening environmental footprints. In this context, a report released in February 2024 by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, a UK-based government department, pointed out that agriculture contributed to the UK economy a Gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices of $15.3 billion (£13.9 billion) (0.6% of GDP) in 2022. This marked a growth of $1.98 billion (£1.8 billion) (15%) in comparison to the previous year. Furthermore, there was a year-on-year increase of 17% in the Total Income from Farming (TIFF) in the UK, escalating from the preceding year to $8.6 billion (£7.9 billion) in 2022. Hence, it is the burgeoning agriculture industry that is spearheading the biochar fertilizer market's growth.
