Butachlor is a kind of organic herbicide that belongs to the group of acetanilide that can be used as a pre-emergent against grass. In addition to this, it is a systematic herbicide that acts as a protein synthesis inhibitor and also leads to metabolic dysfunction in the targeted weeds. Besides, it is primarily absorbed by germinating stem shoots and secondarily by weed roots that grow on pre-planted arable croplands. This herbicide is toxic to aquatic life and has low bioaccumulation potential, it decomposes into toxic gases at high temperatures and the exposure may cause pneumonitis on inhalation, nausea, vomiting as well as diarrhea. The butachlor market value is expected to increase more during the outlook period due to the loss of arable lands.
One of the major driving factors of the butachlor market is the rapid growth of demand for food because of the growing population and reduced arable land in different parts of the world. This butachlor can be used in various crops, including wheat, barley, rice, cotton, corn, chilies, sugar beet, etc., which was widely used in various places across Asia Pacific nations like Taiwan and Southeast Asian countries for rice farming. The rise in disposable income and purchase power parity are some other major driving factors of the butachlor market revenue rate in the next few years.
Strict regulations from the government authorities about the butachlor is one of the major restraints affecting the growth of the market. Another major limitation to the development of the butachlor market was the opposition of chemicals used in agriculture. Most of the farmers are moving to organic farming and the development of better and less harmful substitutes are some of the restraints affecting the growth of the market of Butachlor.
The rise in awareness about the harmful effects of Butachlor is also one of the major challenges which hamper the growth of the revenue rate. Another hindering factor of the global Butachlor market was the threats posed by the usage of butachlor to human health and the environment.
