[174+ Pages Research Report] Global Agricultural Microbials Market to surpass USD 12.3 billion by 2030 from USD 8.1 billion in 2020 at a CAGR of 14.94% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-30.
Product Overview
Agricultural microbial means the microorganisms used in farming to improve crop productivity and yield quality. Agriculture's microbial inoculants have target-specific roles, making them ideal for use in a variety of crops. Agricultural microorganisms are naturally occurring organisms like moulds and bacteria that provide plants with nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen. These microorganisms also help to boost soil structure, nutrient processing, ecological balance, and plant productivity and sustainability.
Market Highlights
Global Agricultural Microbials Market is expected to project a notable CAGR of 14.94% in 2030.
One of the driving forces for the agricultural and microbial market is the growing need to nourish an ever-increasing world population combined with increasing demand for sustainable farming practices and public concern for environmental safety. Another driver for the use of microbial products is the public's problem over environmental safety. The forces which drive microbial demand involve the need to increase crop yields per acre while promoting increasingly sustainable practices, finding biological alternatives to boost environmental production with a reduction in environmental pressure, or supplementing integrated practices.

In agriculture, the use of biofertilizers and biopesticides in agriculture has increased because they produce higher and healthier yields sustainably.
Market Dynamics
Drivers
Need to satisfy the demand of growing demography
One of the driving forces for the agricultural and microbial market is the growing need to nourish an ever-increasing world population combined with increasing demand for sustainable farming practices and public concern for environmental safety. One of the major drivers for the use of microbial products is the public's problem over environmental safety. The forces which drive microbial demand involve the need to increase crop yields per acre while promoting increasingly sustainable practices, finding biological alternatives to boost environmental production with a reduction in environmental pressure, or supplementing integrated practices.
Key component of IPM practices
Microorganisms are becoming increasingly important as a crucial constituent of integrated pest management practices (IPM), which, due to the proliferation of IPM among farmers, in turn, has a positive effect on the growth of the agricultural microbial sector. Consumer demand for organic food and the growing use of organic farming also propel the market growth of agricultural microbials.
Restraint
High cost and counterfeit products
The high cost of use and delayed consequences of microbial inoculants in comparison to traditional chemical agrochemicals are the key factors hindering the market growth and acceptance of agricultural microbials. The presence of many counterfeit goods on the market and the introduction of government regulations are presenting manufacturers with several challenges in their development.
