Significant growth expected in the soil segment

In 2016, the soil segment accounted for the largest share, by mode of application, in the agricultural micronutrients market in terms of value and volume. Soil application is the most widely used owing to its easy application; it also requires less time and labor to apply micronutrients directly in the soil. As micronutrients come in direct contact with the roots of the crop when applied to the soil, they are more effective and result in high yield and productivity.

Cereals: The fastest growing crop type in the agricultural micronutrients market

In 2016, the cereals segment accounted for the second-largest share of the agricultural micronutrients market in terms of value. This segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022 as cereals are the most widely consumed crops across the globe. The cereals segment is further sub-segmented into rice, wheat, corn, and others (barley, sorghum, oats, rye, and other cereal crops), wherein corn is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. Due to the increase in population and rise in the economy in developing countries, the consumption of food is growing. It is hence important to maintain the nutrient level in cereal crops & soil to enhance the productivity and growth of the cereals, for which micronutrients play an important role.
