The growth is attributed to the increasing demand for food linked with the growing population, which subsequently drives higher demand for fertilizers and crop protection products. Increasing the use of fertilizers by the farmers to supply nutrients to the crops and enhance their yield is a key factor driving the agrochemicals demand.

The United States is one of the most dominant players in the agrochemicals market. According to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the agricultural utilization of nitrogen fertilizers in the United States witnessed a marginal increase from 11,581.7 thousand metric tons in 2017 to 11,672.4 thousand metric tons in 2019. Similarly, the agricultural use of pesticides remained relatively stable, standing at 407,779 metric tons in 2019.

Amidst escalating demand for nutritious food and the imperative to enhance production and productivity, farmers are compelled to intensify their utilization of fertilizers and pesticides to mitigate crop losses. This underscores the indispensable role of agrochemicals in modern agriculture, serving as indispensable tools to safeguard crop yields and ensure food security amidst evolving agricultural landscapes.
