      DUBLIN, March 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Pesticides Global Market Opportunities And Strategies To 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

      The global pesticides market size reached a value of nearly $84.5 billion in 2019, having grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2% since 2015, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.5% to nearly $130.7 billion by 2023.

      Growth in the historic period resulted from strong economic growth in emerging markets and intensive farming techniques in the pesticide market. Factors that negatively affected growth in the historic period were high research and development (R&D) costs and alternative techniques.

      Going forward, faster economic growth in many developed and developing countries, and growing populations will drive growth. Factors that could hinder the growth of the pesticide market in the future include raising awareness of the negative effects of pesticides on the environment, rising demand for organic food products, geopolitical tensions, and patent expiry.

      The pesticides market is segmented by type into fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides. The herbicides market was the largest segment of the pesticide market, accounting for $43.8 billion or 51.9% of the total in 2019 and this market is expected to be the fastest-growing segment going forward at a CAGR of 12.8%.

      The Asia Pacific was the largest region in the pesticide market, accounting for 26.8% of the global market in 2019. It was followed by South America, North America and then the other regions. Going forward, the fastest growing regions in the pesticide market will be Africa and South America, where growth will be at CAGRs of 18.2% and 17.9% respectively. These will be followed by the Middle East and Eastern Europe where the markets are expected to grow at CAGRs of 15.8% and 10.3% respectively.

      The global pesticide market is fairly consolidated. The top ten competitors in the global pesticides market made up 59.4% of the total market in 2018. Major players in the market include Syngenta, Bayer, BASF, Dow DuPont, FMC Corporation and others.

      The global chemicals market, of which the pesticide market is a segment, reached a value of nearly $3,870.9 billion in 2019, having grown at 3.8% since 2015. It will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4% to nearly $5,144.8 billion by 2023. The pesticides market was the 12th largest segment in the global chemicals market, accounting for 2.2% of the total in 2019. The other basic organic chemicals and ethyl alcohol market was the largest segment of the chemicals market, accounting for 25.4% of the total of $982 billion globally and has grown at a CAGR of 4% during the historic period. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period.

      The top opportunities in the global pesticide market will arise in the herbicides segment which will gain $27 billion of global annual sales by 2023. The pesticide market size will gain the most in Brazil at $7.09 billion.

      • Market-trend-based strategies for the pesticide market include an increase in adjuvants use, adoption of biopesticides, increasing scope of nano-insecticides, environmentally friendly alternatives, consolidation of major players, safety regulations leading to product development, low prices leading to increased demand for inorganic fungicides in developing countries and investing new product development.
      • Player-adopted strategies in the pesticide market include integrating agronomic expertise reinforcing M&A strategies to expand product portfolio, new product launches, and approvals and investing in research and development activities.

      To take advantage of the opportunities, it is recommended that pesticide companies consider producing biopesticides, increase investments in research and development to produce environmentally friendly and nano pesticides, consider outsourcing their manufacturing facilities to developing countries and focus on offering products to the fruit growers.
