Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants: Introduction

  • Adoption of modern agricultural practices and advanced technologies such as “agriculture 4.0,” a kind of precision farming, is expected to be a major driver of the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market during the forecast period. Rise in concerns about food security across the globe is another factor anticipated to drive the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market during the forecast period.
  • Synthetic agriculture surfactants are additives used in agrochemical formulations to improve the effectiveness of agricultural pesticides. These surfactants decrease the surface tension of water in spray solution of pesticides, thereby improving its wettability, spreading ability, retention, and penetration on the leaf surface. Surfactants lower the required quantity of pesticides, as less active compounds are needed during foliar uptake. This decreases the overall cost and pollution. These surfactants are applied to crops through pesticide formulations such as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, foliar nutrients, and plant growth regulators in order to provide effective crop protection.

Key Drivers and Restraints of Global Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants Market

  • The synthetic agricultural surfactants market has developed significantly in the recent years. The global synthetic agricultural surfactants market is primarily driven by the rise in demand for agrochemicals and high adoption of precision farming and protected cultivation. Synthetic agricultural surfactants are primarily derived from the chemical synthesis of petroleum or petroleum-based products. Currently, most surfactants available in the market are synthesized from petroleum-based feedstock such as ethylene, benzene, kerosene, and n-paraffins. These surfactants are good dispersing agents, stable in cold water, and less toxic to plants and animals. This is expected to propel the synthetic agricultural surfactants market during the forecast period.

Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants: Type Segment

  • In terms of type, the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market can be segmented into non-ionic, anionic, amphoteric, cationic, and others
  • The non-ionic segment is expected to account for significant share of the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market during the forecast period. It is anticipated to be followed by the anionic segment.

Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants: Crop Type Segment

  • In terms of crop type, the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market can be segmented into cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, and others (sugarcane, plantation crops, and turf & ornamentals)
  • The cereals & grains segment is expected to account for significant share of the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market during the forecast period. It is anticipated to be followed by the fruits & vegetables segment.

Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants: Application Segment

  • In terms of application, the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market can be classified into herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and others (fertilizers, micronutrients, bio-stimulants, and disinfectants)
  • The herbicides segment is estimated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period. It is projected to be followed by the fungicides segment.

COVID-19 Impact on Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants Market

  • On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. Originating in China, the virus has spread to at least 213 countries and territories around the world.
  • Several governments and private sector businesses are operating at a limited capacity or have ceased operations completely due to recent events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Manufacture of various consumer goods and other products across the globe has come to a halt due to the unavailability of raw materials, shortage of labor, etc. This is expected to hamper the synthetic agricultural surfactants market.

North America to Dominate Synthetic Agricultural Surfactants Market

  • In terms of region, the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa
  • North America dominated the global synthetic agricultural surfactants market in 2020. This trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period owing to the presence of well-established agricultural industry, high agriculture expenditure, and strong emphasis on technologically advanced farming techniques & products in the region. The synthetic agricultural surfactants market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace owing to the expansion of the population, presence of fertile & arable land, major agriculture-occupation dependent population, lucrative government schemes, and rise in agriculture-related R&D & farming techniques in emerging economies such as China and India in the region.
