Dublin, Sept. 27, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/jpdqhj/crop_protection)
has announced the addition of the
"Crop Protection Chemicals Market By Types (Herbicides, Fungicides,
Insecticides, Bio-Pesticides and Adjuvants), By Crop Types, By
Geography: Global Trends and Forecast To 2018" report to their
offering.
The global crop protection market consists of crop protection
chemicals or agrochemicals, seeds, and genetically modified (GM)
crops. Crop protection chemicals are the most dominating segment of
this market in terms of market share as well as product
innovations. Crop protection chemicals are further classified as
herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, bio-pesticides, and
adjuvants. As the latter two segments hold a minor market share, in
general practice, pesticides are referred to as crop protection
chemicals.
Bio-based pesticides, as the name suggests are made up of renewable
resources and contain no synthetic active ingredients. These
pesticides have a much more positive impact on the environment than
their synthetic counterparts and are expected to be one of the
fastest growing pesticide segments in the near future. Synthetic
pesticides, which are typically manufactured from petrochemical or
inorganic raw materials, are further segmented as insecticides,
herbicides and fungicides. Globally, the market is dominated by
herbicides, accounting for over 40% of the total pesticide demand
in 2011.
The global market, in terms of active ingredient volume was
estimated at 2,075.5 metric tons in 2011 and is expected to reach
3,136.1 metric tons by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2013 to
2018.
This report estimates the market size of the global market both in
terms of active ingredient volume as well as revenue. The market
has been further segmented on the basis of crop types such as
cereals, grains, oilseeds, and vegetables as well as by
sub-segmentation of insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides such
as glyphosate, atrazine, and 2,4-D. This segmentation is given for
major regions and key countries in those regions. Market drivers,
restraints and challenges, raw material, and product price trends
are discussed in detail. Market share by participants for the
overall
crop protection market is discussed in detail in the report. We
have also profiled leading players of this industry including Bayer
CropScience (Germany), BASF (Germany), Monsanto (U.S.), and Dow
Agrosciences (U.S.).
