The main types of fungicides market are synthetic fungicides and bio-fungicides. Fungicides control fungal diseases by killing or inhibiting fungi or fungal spores. The active ingredients involved are dithiocarbamates, benzimidazoles, chloronitriles, triazoles, phenylamine, strobilurins, and other active ingredients that are used for seed treatment, soil treatment, foliar spray, chemigation, and post-harvest. The various applications are cereals and grains, oilseeds and pulses, fruits and vegetables, and other applications. The global fungicides market is segmented - 1) By Type: Synthetic Fungicides, Bio-fungicides 2) By Active Ingredient: Dithiocarbamates, Benzimidazoles, Chloronitriles, Triazoles, Phenylamides, Strobilurins, Other Active Ingredients 3) By Treatment: Seed Treatment, Soil Treatment, Foliar Spray, Chemigation, Post-Harvest 4) By Application: Cereals & Grains, Oilseeds & Pulses, Fruits & Vegetables, Other Applications The global fungicides market size will grow from $20.77 billion in 2022 to $22.11 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global fungicides is expected to grow from $28.86 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.9%. Farmers globally are adopting intensive farming techniques to increase productivity per hectare, driving the demand for pesticides and other agricultural chemicals. Intensive farming is an agricultural intensification and mechanization system that aims to maximize yields from available land through means such as heavy use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. These techniques help to meet the rising demand for food from the growing population and prevent food shortages. Intensive farming techniques such as monoculture drive the demand for pesticides. Monoculture is the practice of growing one type of crop intensively over a large area, depleting the nutrients in the soil and making it heavily dependent on pesticides. Major players in the fungicides market are Adama Agricultural Solutions Ltd., American Vanguard Corporation, BASF SE, Bayer Cropscience AG, Bioworks Inc., Dow Agrosciences LLC., DuPont, FMC Corporation, Marrone Bio Innovations Inc., and Monsanto Company. The rising demand for organic food products is expected to negatively impact the fungicides market. This can be attributed to changing lifestyles and an increasing preference for organic food. Organic food products are derived from farming systems without the use of fungicides. According to the 2020 Organic Industry Survey released by the Organic Trade Association, U.S. organic food sales hit $50.1 billion in 2020, up 4.6% from 2019. Hence, the rising demand for organic food products will limit the use of fungicides in crop production, restricting the growth of the fungicide market. Because inorganic fungicides are less expensive than organic fungicides, they are in high demand in developing agricultural countries such as China, Brazil, and India. Other factors driving this market include rapid population growth, depleting cultivable land, lack of proper regulations, and increasing demand for quality fruits and vegetables. Inorganic fungicides are manufactured from abundantly available and easily produced elements, making the product significantly cheaper. Farmers in developing regions procuring inorganic fungicides in large quantities are expected to drive the market in the forecast period. In May 2022, UPL Limited, an Indian chemical industry company acquired OptiCHOS, a naturally-derived fungicide from BioCHOS for an undisclosed amount. UPL acquired OptiCHOS as an addition to its natural plant protection (NPP) business division. NPP will launch OptiCHOS products in the next few years.
