Europe Organic Fertilizer Market Overview:
The Europe Organic Fertilizer Market was valued at $2,451 million in 2016, and is projected to reach $3,260 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2017 to 2023. Organic fertilizers are derived from organic compounds such as animal and vegetable waste. These fertilizers are a rich source of primary nutrients, which include nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium and help maintain the health of the crops. Furthermore, they increase the organic & humus content in the soil, provide nutrients for microorganisms in the soil, and restore the physical–chemical properties of the soil. Large-scale use of synthetic fertilizers has reduced the fertility of the soil in the European region. Thus, the adoption of organic fertilizers has increased considerably to restore the fertility of the soil.
Government support coupled with increase in awareness toward the use of organic fertilizers drive the growth of the Europe organic fertilizers market. Moreover, the implementation of stringent regulations on the use of synthetic fertilizers boost the growth of the market. Also, harmful effects due to prolonged exposure to chemical fertilizer augments the growth of organic fertilizer market. However, the ongoing R&D activities of synthetic fertilizers and low nutrient content of organic fertilizers as compared to synthetic fertilizers hamper the growth of the market. On the contrary, increase in demand for organic food offers potential growth opportunity for the market expansion.
