Smart Release Fertilizers Market

The global Smart Release Fertilizers (SRF) market is projected to grow significantly, rising from USD 3.145 billion in 2024 to an estimated USD 5.375 billion by 2035. This growth reflects a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0% during the forecast period.

Smart release fertilizers are transforming modern agriculture by providing controlled nutrient delivery systems that align with crop growth cycles and environmental conditions.

These innovative fertilizers, including polymer-coated and bio-based variants, are playing a crucial role in precision farming and sustainable crop production. The polymer-coated fertilizers segment is expected to witness strong demand, contributing an absolute USD 1.031 billion opportunity between 2025 and 2035.

In terms of application method, soil-applied fertilizers continue to dominate, accounting for 65.9% of the market share in 2025, valued at approximately USD 2.175 billion. Their popularity is driven by ease of use, broad applicability across crop types, and compatibility with existing farming practices.

Smart release fertilizer class is about cutting-edge coating technologies and chemistry that regulate release of nutrients based on environmental conditions and crop requirements. The industry is experiencing rapid growth driven by increasing adoption of precision agriculture practices and sustainable agronomy.

Agricultural intensification in developing regions, coupled with highly restrictive environmental regulation, has fueled the shift toward these next-generation fertilizer technologies.
