Microbials play a vital component of sustainable agriculture and offer a key role in maintaining the health of the plants by acting against pathogens as well as promoting growth. Agriculture microbials are essential to increase and maintain soil fertility and thereby promoting crop production. Soil microbials also produce antimicrobial agents and enzymes that are used for the physiological as well as the reproductive growth of the plants. These microbials augment the plant growth by producing various plant growth hormones, siderophores, and various hydrolytic enzymes. Agriculture microbials include naturally occurring microorganisms including Fungi, Viruses, Protozoa; this microbiota presents a key role in host health and development. At the present times, it has been well recognized that agriculture microbial inoculants are considered as a prime element of integrated nutrient management by this means leading to a sustainable environment. Agriculture microbials are gaining popularity over conventional chemical pesticides due to environmental hazards associated with synthetic fertilizers such as soil contamination, and loss of soil fertility loss. Furthermore, the necessity to improve the agricultural production supply owing to rising population and reducing cultivatable land area is shifting the preference towards naturally occurring microbials.
These microbials are widely used in the production of cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables, and other range of crops in the form of dry including dry granules, water-dispersible granules, and wettable powders and liquid comprising emulsifiable concentrates, suspension concentrates among others. These factors are expected to promote the market growth over the forecast period.The Global Agricultural Microbials market is categorized on the basis of types, crop types, functions, applications, and formulations and region.
