Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
Nano fertilizers aid in enhancing an agricultural manufacturer's nutritional benefit. Due to their affordability and lower usage requirements, nano fertilizers are more advantageous than chemical fertilizers. Farmers may use nano fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers due to reported incorrect usage of chemical fertilizers and their effects on the agroecosystem.
The urge to switch from chemical fertilizers to nano fertilizers is helping the market for nano fertilizers to grow, as projected in the upcoming years. The agricultural sector is among the most important industries that must run smoothly and properly. There is a growing demand for fertilizers as environmental toxicity rises. The innovative development of nanotechnology has paved the way for the large-scale synthesis of the nanoparticles used to create nano-fertilizers. Furthermore, the expansion of the global market for nano fertilizers over the next five years would be aided by the growing world population. In the upcoming five years, rising demand for crops with higher yields will further support the expansion of the worldwide nano fertilizers industry.
Additionally, ongoing research into novel approaches has resulted in the creation of novel nanomaterials, providing a potent tool for creating new technology products that are effectively supplied via soil application method and supporting the sub-growth segment as well as the expansion of the global market.
The nano fertilizer market is segmented on the raw materials, methods of applications and application. Based on raw materials, the market is segmented into nitrogen, silver, carbon, zinc and others. Based on the methods of applications, the nano fertilizer market is segmented into a spray or foliar and soil. Based on applications, the nano fertilizer market is segmented into cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables and others.
The market's leading segment is oilseeds & pulses. This is due to their stable molecular arrangement, low toxicity, and uniform dispersion, which makes them great fertilizer carriers. In addition, they are also used as light converters for supplementing the photosynthesis of plants. All these factors contribute to increased demand for carbon-based nanomaterials. Among the carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon tubes witnessed more traction in the agricultural sector. The carbon tubes embed the ability to nano transport cross plant cell walls, impact plant growth regulation, and act as a medium for biosensors. Thus, they can act as both plant growth boosters and slow-release fertilizers.
Carbon grabbed the highest revenue share, and it is anticipated that they will continue to hold that position during the anticipated time. This is due to their stable molecular arrangement, low toxicity, and uniform dispersion, which makes them great fertilizer carriers.

Thus, they can act as both plant growth boosters and slow-release fertilizers.
The North American nano fertilizer market is expected to register the highest market share in revenue soon. This is because of emerging economies such as India, China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The rise of India and China as the leading global producers of rice, wheat, cotton, and tea remains a major driver of growth in the region. Furthermore, Indonesia and Vietnam remain among the top 5 producers of coffee beans. This has led to an urgent need in the region to increase productivity.
Furthermore, sustainability drives to meet the rising food demand of the region is, in turn, driving the demand for nano fertilizers in the region. In addition, Asia Pacific is projected to grow rapidly in the global nano fertilizer market. This is because of emerging economies such as India, China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The rise of India and China as the leading global producers of rice, wheat, cotton, and tea remains a major driver of growth in the region. Furthermore, sustainability drives to meet the rising food demand of the region, in turn driving the demand for nano fertilizers.
