Product Overview

Phosphorus is an important macronutrient required for optimum crop production with regard to fertilizer use. From bone meal, fertilizer, and rock superphosphate, phosphorus is obtained. The raw material used to produce most commercial phosphate fertilizers on the market is rock phosphate. One of the three primary nutrients needed for plants to grow to their full potential is phosphate. It is necessary for the normal growth of plants, the absorption of energy from the sun and its conversion to useful plant compounds. To meet the phosphorous requirements of plants, various phosphate fertilizers are used. It helps develop strong roots and stems, provides disease resistance, and improves productivity. These fertilizers assist a plant to turn other nutrients into building blocks that are available. One of the three primary nutrients presents most commonly in fertilizers is phosphorus. Today, farmers have a variety of phosphatic fertilizers available. Manufacturers also produce a range of such fertilizers that contain a variety of such fertilizers that contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in various proportions.

Market Highlights

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market is expected to project a notable CAGR of XX.X% in 2030.

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market to surpass USD 82 million by 2030 from USD 47 million in 2018 at a CAGR of 3.7% throughout the forecast period, i.e., 2019-30. This market is expected to be driven by a growing global population, meat intake, and diversified food demand. Moreover, it is likely that the limited supply of arable land would fuel demand over the forecast period. The demand for cereals and grains is expected to help the growth of phosphate fertilizers over the coming years due to the rapidly rising population around the globe. In addition, the limited supply of plowed land and increased consumption of meat worldwide are fueling the market for phosphate fertilizers over the forecast period.

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market: Segments

Diammonium phosphate Segment to grow with the highest CAGR of XX.X% during 2019-30

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market is segmented by active Ingredientinto into mono ammonium phosphate (MAP), diammonium phosphate (DAP) and superphosphate. The greater market share in 2018 was accounted for by the Diammonium phosphate segment and is expected to see the highest growth during the forecast period. As it is a key source of nitrogen and phosphorus, DAP fertilizers are a big type. It is commonly used in cereals, sugar cane, broad-acre agriculture, sowing pastures, dairy pastures, fodder crops, and horticultural crops for a variety of crops. DAP is also a cost-effective phosphorus source for crops. In comparison, the MAP is a phosphate fertilizer that is water-soluble and commonly used as a source of nitrogen and phosphorus. During the early stages of the growth cycle, the MAP is a highly effective source of nitrogen and phosphorous for plants and crops. Its high purity and water-solubility make MAP an optimal fertilizer for fertigation and foliar applications. It also promotes the phosphorous absorption of plants naturally present in the soil.

Cereals and grains segment to grow with the highest CAGR of XX.X% during 2019-30

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market is segmented by Crop Type into fruits and vegetables, cereals and grains, oilseeds, and others. Based on Crop Type, Cereals and grains held the largest share in 2018 in terms of revenue and this trend is anticipated to continue over the forecast period. In order to meet the growing food demand across the region with the increasing population in countries such as India and China are expected to fuel the demand for cereals and grains. This, in turn, over the forecast period, would fuel the market for phosphate fertilizers. In vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers, melons, squash, and cucumbers, phosphorous is needed for root growth, fruiting, and stem formation. They undergo intensive processes to absorb nutrients from the ground as garden vegetables grow. The addition of fertilizers keeps the soil in great condition to feed the garden and also encourages plant development and growth.

Global Phosphatic Fertilizers Market: Market Dynamics

Drivers

Growth in population and diversified food demand

Population growth and diversified demand for food are the key growth drivers found in the phosphate fertilizer industry. With an increase in population, increasing energy demands urged farmers to increase crop production from the limited available land. One of the main activities that improves crop yield and soil fertility is the use of fertilizers in agriculture. Phosphate fertilizers have contributed greatly to reducing global hunger and increasing agricultural production as a vital component of the 'green revolution'. Therefore, to increase the yield of their crops, farmers treat their land with phosphorus fertilizers. All of these factors drive the growth of the market.

Initiative taken by Government in the form of subsidies

Governments across all nations offer support in the form of incentives, subsidies, loans and tax exemptions on agricultural goods and fertilizers thereby boosting the overall fertilizer industry. Governments provide fertilizer subsidies to increase agricultural production while insulating farmers from growing phosphate fertilizer prices. Some governments set fertilizer prices below market rates and refund companies for shortfalls, while some governments explicitly pass fertilizer subsidies to farmers or farming communities, thus benefiting the market for phosphate fertilizers.

Restraints

Stringent private and government regulations

The key problem is the scarcity and non-renewability of this resource, combined with regulations implemented by the government, which may affect the market. Naturally, nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous are elements of plant growth, but increased levels of these nutrients can influence freshwater resources such as lakes, rivers, and streams. Phosphorous-containing sewage discharges and fertilizer runoff lead to elevated levels of nutrient water. Excessive aquatic plant and algae growth may result from high concentrations of phosphorous or nitrogen in freshwater resources. It may cause algae blooms, reduce the quality of water and deplete the amount of oxygen, stressing or destroying aquatic life.
