The global agricultural surfactants market was valued at 2.39 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach USD 2.55 billion in 2024 from USD 4.31 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 6.77% from 2024 to 2032.
Agricultural surfactants are chemicals that enhance or support the action of pesticides such as insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. The market is expected to have high growth in the next half of the decade since the demand for agricultural chemicals is rising because of increased food demand as a result of the population rise. Agricultural surfactants enhance the activity of pesticides by altering the properties of pesticides like their ability to spread, penetrate the target, increase or decrease the droplet size, and others. This ability of surfactants improves the ability of pesticides to protect or target the organism.
The agricultural surfactants market is driven by factors like increased food demand because of the rise in population, development in farming techniques such as precision farming, increasing awareness about the use of chemicals in agriculture, and equipment such as tractors, dusters, sprayers, and increase in commercial agriculture. However, factors like the possibility of pesticide drift, health concerns in using them and their potential harm to the environment are some of the restraints for this market. These factors may act as growth hurdles for the agricultural surfactants market in certain regions.
