June 19, 2017

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “Global
Crop Protection Market: Industry Analysis & Outlook (2017-2021)”
report to their offering.

Crop protection is an agriculture science or practice to protect crops
from insect attack, weed growth and plant diseases. Agrochemical is the
technical term for chemicals used in crop protection. Agrochemicals help
to improve crop production and protection. They are applied on seeds,
soil and crops to prevent crop damage. Agrochemicals can be broadly
classified into 4 types that include insecticides, herbicides,
fungicides and others. Herbicides are used to kill weed or unwanted
plants and fungicides are mostly used in fruits and vegetables crops to
kill fungus. Insecticides prevent the insect attack and control their
populations.

Herbicides market held a significant share of the global crop protection
market supported by rising demand for bio-herbicides. Fungicides market
is expected to witness growth due to increasing development of organic
fungicides.

The Americas region is a major contributor to the global crop protection
market supported by favorable climatic conditions and high availability
of farming land. Asia-Oceania is likely to experience further growth in
crop protection market due to increased adoption of new farming
techniques and rising demand for food grains.

The global crop protection market is expected to grow in future with
increasing population, urbanization, rising global economy, decreasing
arable land and growing agriculture production. Key trends of this
market include rising demand for animal feed, increasing demand for
bio-herbicides and changing dietary preferences. However, there are some
factors which can hinder growth of the market including increasing
adoption of genetically modified crops, stringent norms and availability
of non-genuine products.
