Mounting Concerns over Food Security Worldwide to Benefit the Agrochemicals Segment
On the basis of type, the market has been divided into agrochemicals, dyes & pigments (which held a market share of 22.5% in 2020), construction chemicals, specialty polymers, textile chemicals, base ingredients, surfactants, functional ingredients, water treatment, and others. Among these, the agrochemicals segment is expected to dominate the market on account of the skyrocketing demand for specialty chemicals in the agriculture industry to boost farm yield.
The underlying cause for this is the intensifying concerns surrounding food security in many parts of the world, driven by increasing populations and depleting resources. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), food production will need to be increased by 70% between 2005 and 2050 to feed the global population, which is projected to surpass 9 billion over the next three decades. Agrochemicals are set to play a significant role in enabling governments and international organizations to meet the productivity requirements in the farming sector.
