The Middle East and Africa organic fertilizers market size is expected to reach USD 0.72 billion in 2024 and reach USD 1.27 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 12.06% from 2024 to 2029.
Organic fertilizers can be obtained from human waste, animal waste, or vegetable matter. Naturally occurring organic fertilizers consist of animal matter produced by meat processing industries, slurries, and peats. Since these fertilizers are obtained naturally, the risk for environmental damage is low. Organic fertilizers also reduce the risk of diseases in humans. Prominent organic fertilizers available in the market include blood meal, bone meal, composites, earthworm castings, bat guano, fish emulsion, and rock phosphate. Selection of organic fertilizers is usually done after determining the nutrients required from the crop.
There has been an increase in the demand for organic and green products as people are becoming more health conscious. There has been a rapid development in organic agriculture, coupled with an increase in the demand for organic food products, which is a major driver of this market. When compared to conventional fertilizers, organic fertilizers are less harmful and cheaper. Due to the government’s various policies regarding pollution and non-biodegradable items, the production of organic fertilizers has risen in the past few years. The organic fertilizers market is dependent upon the weather (rains/water supply) of that region or area; hence, weather conditions can hamper the growth of the organic fertilizer market. Another concern with organic fertilizers is that a majority of them have a lesser nutrient ratio than chemical fertilizers, which can massively impact farm produce.
The animal based segment accounted for the largest share in the market. Further, the blood meal segment holds a major share in the animal based fertilizer market.
Fruits & Vegetables market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR. This is mainly because of the importance of fruits and vegetables and it being irreplaceable. Moreover they are highly perishable as compared to cereals.
Liquid fertilizers are projected to dominate the market during the forecast period. They are more effective and economical when compared to the dry fertilizers.
The key players in the market include Tata Chemicals Ltd (India), The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (U.S.), Coromandel International Limited (India), National Fertilizers Limited (India) and Krishak Bharati Cooperative Limited (India). Other significant players include Midwestern BioAg (U.S.), Italpollina SpA (Italy), and ILSA S.p.A (Italy), Perfect Blend, LLC (U.S.), and Sustane Natural Fertilizer, Inc. (U.S.).
