Pesticide Preparations Market Overview
Pesticide
Preparations Market size is estimated to reach $81.7 billion by 2027, growing at
a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2022-2027. The word pesticide is a
blend of two words “Pest” and “Cida” where the former means insects, and the
latter stand for kill. Therefore, pesticides are frequently delineated as
substances that are extensively used to control several crop diseases
instigated by microorganisms like nematodes, mycoplasmas, and biotic agents.
Pesticides are not restricted to safeguarding crops from insects or other
diseases but they have tons of uses ranging from insecticides to algicides.
Algicides are commonly taken into account in households for impeding the growth
of algae in swimming pools. Moreover, bactericides like disinfectants are of
great help to clean various touch-prone things such as door handles especially in
recent times when COVID-19 is roaming around the world. Pesticides fall under
two main categories biopesticides and chemical pesticides. The former is
prepared from natural material whereas the latter is from chemicals like
phosphoric acid. The pesticide preparations market outlook is quite enchanting
due to elevating agriculture and household demands. Proliferating demand for
food ascribing to a broadening population are factors set to drive the growth of
the Pesticide Preparations Industry for the period 2022-2027.

Pesticide Preparations Market Segment Analysis-By Type
The
Pesticide Preparations Market based on the type can be further segmented into
chemical Pesticides and biological pesticides. The biopesticides segment held the
largest share in 2021. The growth is owing to the effectiveness and non-toxic
nature of biopesticides as compared to chemical pesticides. Biopesticides are
famous for targeting only a few harmful pests while remaining inert to humans,
animals, and birds. Biopesticides are a consequence of natural materials like
minerals, and plants therefore they hold biodegradable nature. Therefore,
biopesticides do not pollute the environment and leave no harmful effect on
food. Therefore, accruing health cognizance among people is forcing farmers to
shift such natural choices. Similarly, the biopesticides segment is estimated
to be the fastest-growing segment with a CAGR of 4.3% over the forecast period
2022-2027. This growth is owing to heightening awareness among farmers about the harmful effects associated with chemical pesticides. According to a report on
farmers' awareness of pesticides contamination, more than 75% of farmers are
aware of the ill effects of synthesized pesticides.
Pesticide Preparations Market Segment Analysis-By Application
The
Pesticide Preparations Market based on the application can be further segmented
into rodenticides, algicides, fungicides, avicides, bactericides, insecticides,
herbicides/weeding, and others. The insecticides segment held the largest share
in 2021. The growth is owing to the growing attacks of insects every year.
According to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), more than 20% of crop
production is dented by pests every year. Many synthetic insecticides like
chlorinated hydrocarbons and organophosphates have become primary agents to keep
insects from damaging crops. Moreover, the insecticides and herbicides segment
is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment with a CAGR of 4.7% over the
forecast period 2022-2027. This growth is owing to budding problems of unwanted
plants and insects which lower the overall yield. Moreover, accruing a
number of farmer awareness programs in developing countries making farmers
aware of contemporary tools and techniques like pesticides will be another big
factor in the growth of the respective segment.

biggest agriculture players like China, and India. China’s agriculture sector
contributes more than 7% to the GDP whereas, over 20-22% of people are employed
in this sector. Similarly, the Indian agriculture sector contributes around
13-14% and employs over 40% of the workforce in the country. Therefore,
considering the immense agriculture industry the demand for pesticides is
fairly high in these states. China is the biggest user of pesticides in the
world with 1,763,000 tons. Moreover, Asia-pacific is expected to offer lucrative
growth opportunities to marketers over the forecast period 2022-2027. This
growth is owing to the augmenting population of China and India is
proliferating the demand for food. Recently, China abrogated the one-child
policy, and the step is supposed to drive growth in the respective segment
also. Moreover, prospering economies of Asian nations are ensuring innumerable
flows of riches into the research and development sector.
