COVID-19 Impact
The Covid-19 pandemic has been a major challenge for the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market owing to directly affecting the manufacturer's supply chain across the globe and shutting down the production facilities to minimize the risk of virus spread. The coronavirus pandemic leads to low activity at agriculture production and financial stress on landowners, resulting in a decline in agricultural yield. Fertilizers' anti-caking agents have also been affected owing to a decrease in demand and supply chain disruption. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the production of wheat in the European Union is around 139.5 million metric tons in 2020-2021, falling by 15.4 million metric tons as compared to 2019-2020. However, with steady growth in agriculture activity, the global fertilizer anti-caking agents was able to regain momentum in the second half of 2020. Thus, the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market is also estimated to gradually increase during the forecast period.

Global Fertilizer Anti-Caking Agents Market Segment Analysis – By Form
The granular segment accounted for around 28% of the market share in 2021 and is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. A granular form of fertilizers is usually sold in bags and can be easily spread on the top of the soil. Most fertilizers store carry several different types of granular fertilizer, along with a method of formulations to address specific soil conditions to improve the productivity of the crops. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, Brazil soybean production is around 134.0 million metric tons, Paraguay soybean at 6.3 million metric tons, Brazil's total corn production record 114.0 million metric tons, Iraq wheat production at 3.5 million metric tons for the marketing year 2021-2022 as of February 2022. Therefore, the use of fertilizer in cultivation will boost demand for granular form segment fertilizers, which in turn will drive the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market during the forecast period.
Global Fertilizer Anti-Caking Agents Market Segment Analysis – By Application
The Nitrogen fertilizer segment accounted for approximately 59% of the market share in 2021 and is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. The growing demand for fertilizer across the globe is driving the demand for the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market owing to avoid caking issues while transportation and packaging. Anti-caking agents also protect fertilizers from absorbing moisture and forming a cake in bulk storage areas like warehouses. It also helps in reducing the crushing strength of the individual prill. Thus avoiding the caking problems in storage. According to Fertilizers Europe, 59% of nitrogen fertilizers nutrients, 25% of phosphorus pentoxide fertilizer nutrients, and 16% of potassium oxide fertilizer nutrients were produced globally in 2019. Thus, the nitrogen fertilizer segment significant usage in cultivation will help drive the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market over the forecast period
Global Fertilizer Anti-Caking Agents Market Segment Analysis - By Geography
Asia Pacific region held the largest share in the global fertilizer anti-caking agents market in 2021 up to 45%, owing to the growing demand for fertilizers to increase the crop yields in developing countries like China, India, Indonesia, and others will boost the demand for global fertilizer anti-caking agents during the forecast period.
