The exponentially escalating populace coupled with low availability of cultivable land will push Controlled Release Fertilizers Market growth. Global population was estimated at 7.3 billion in 2015 and is anticipated to cross the 8 billion mark by 2024. The relative decline in mortality rates has resulted in the diminution of the plowable land, which has led to greater emphasis on high quality fertilizer production to make the land more fertile. A fertile land leads to better crop yield, which will stimulate controlled release fertilizers market. Growing global requirement for food along with rising preference for environment-friendly fertilizers will drive the industry trends. According to Global Market Insights, Inc., “Controlled Release Fertilizers Industry, which accumulated a revenue of USD 2.4 billion in 2015, is intended to hit USD 3.9 billion by 2024.”
Low crop production and fluctuating seasonal cycles have shifted the focus of landowners toward eco-friendly farming, which will positively affect controlled release fertilizers market revenue. Global food requirement is expected to depict a rise of 35% by 2030 and over 75% of the requirement will be satisfied solely by improving the fertility of land. This, in turn, will raise the demand for the resilient fertilizers to enhance the land productivity and increase the production of crops. Cultivable land per individual is estimated at less than 0.2 hectares and the land potency should be 50% to satisfy the global food requirements.
