Report key highlighters:
The rise in population and increase in disposable income have enhanced the purchasing power of people for high end products that include ornamental crops, cash crops, and others. In addition, expansion of agricultural industry and horticulture industry has led the adoption of phosphate fertilizer across the globe owing to its ability of enhancing plant productivity and photosynthesis activity.
Phosphate fertilizers are obtained by adding acid to ground or pulverized phosphate rock. The most commonly and widely used phosphate fertilizers are diammonium phosphate (DAP), mono ammonium phosphate (MAP), NPKs, and SSP. Phosphate is the natural constituent of phosphorus, an element that provides all the nutrients to plants for their development due to which it finds a wide range of applications in the agriculture industry.
Growing demand for ornamental crops and cash crops has spurred the market growthÂ
The rise in population and increase in disposable income have enhanced the purchasing power of people for high-end products that include ornamental crops and cash crops. In addition, the expansion of the agricultural industry and horticulture industries has led to the adoption of phosphate fertilizer chemicals across the globe owing to their ability to enhance plant productivity and efficiency. These factors are expected to enhance the growth of the phosphate fertilizer market during the forecast period.Â
Availability of substitute and fluctuation in the prices of raw material is expected to hamper the market
However, the availability of specific substitutes for phosphate fertilizer such as guano, guano blends, and MAP fertilizer restrains the market growth. In addition, data published by Science Daily states that soil treated with high amounts of phosphate can result in poorer plant performance and microorganisms from this conditioned soil can negatively impact plant yield. This factor is projected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
Robust demand from agriculture industry has driven the phosphate fertilizer market
On the contrary, rapid increase in population in both developed & developing economies, rise in import & export of various agricultural products, and surge in focus on the agriculture sector by both developed and developing economies have increased the demand for phosphate fertilizers, where it is used as an excellent source of plant nutrient and increases plant productivity. This factor is expected to create remunerative opportunities in the coming years.
The phosphate fertilizer market is segmented by type, application, and region. By type, it is classified into single superphosphate (SSP), triple superphosphate (TSP), monoammonium phosphate (MAP), di-ammonium phosphate (DSP), and others. By application, it is divided cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, oil seeds, and pulses. Region-wise, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The major companies profiled in this report include Nutrien Ltd., Green Agri Solution, Gayatri Fertiplants International Pvt. Ltd, Rama Phosphates Ltd. APEX AGRO INDUSTRIES, OCP, Indorama Corporation, Silverline, ICL, and PhosAgro Group.
The  Asia-Pacific market accounted for a major market share in 2021, and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period and. The utilization of phosphate fertilizer chemicals in sectors such as agriculture, horticulture, gardening, and others is the major key market trend in Asia-Pacific.
Proliferating demand from the agriculture sector has surged the demand for phosphate fertilizer during the forecast period. Phosphate fertilizer is used to increase the photosynthesis capacity of plants, to increase the crop productivity, and enhances plant maturation. This is anticipated to increase demand for the phosphate fertilizer market in the Asia-Pacific region.
In 2021, the Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DSP) phosphate segment was the largest revenue generator and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period. This is attributed to the fact that growing population across the globe and rise in awareness about consumption of organic and healthy food have enhanced the demand for pulses.
For instance, according to an article published by FAO in 2023, India is the largest producer (25% of global production), consumer (27% of world consumption) and importer (14%) of pulses in the world. DAP is widely used as fertilizer for pulses where less nitrogen and higher phosphorus is required as starter dose. Since phosphorus is immobile in soil, its source (DAP) should be placed at a distance where plant roots can easily reach. This factor is projected to foster the market during the forecast period
By application, the market is divided into cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, and oil seeds & pulses. The cereals and grains segment is dominating the global market, in terms of revenue in 2021 with 40% share in the global market. Cereals include all the dietary properties that exhibit carbohydrate, proteins, minerals, and others. Cereals are widely consumed across the globe where phosphate fertilizer is employed on the cereals production, helps in plant intake of essential nutrients, and enhances plant vigor.
The factors such as rise in population, growth in demand for food, and import & export trade have surged the demand for cereals. Phosphate fertilizer helps in root development, plant maturation, and seed development due to which it has enhanced the potential sales of phosphate fertilizer during the forecast period.
Key Strategic Development :
In February 2022, PhosAgro announced the launch of a new regional company, PhosAgro-Sibir. The company is part of PhosAgro and provides direct supplies of a wide range of mineral fertilizers to agricultural producers in the Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts.
In December 2020, PhosAgro-Region and Exact Farming have signed a cooperation agreement on the development of digital services for Russian customers of PhosAgro’s mineral fertilizers. The companies plan to jointly develop applications for remote monitoring, for evaluating and improving the performance of mineral nutrition systems based on PhosAgro products, and for developing and distributing agronomic expertise.
