The Sustainable Phosphorus Market Size was valued at USD 13.8 Bn in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 20.3 Bn by 2031 at a 5.1% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
The sustainable phosphorus market is emerging as a critical segment within the agricultural and environmental sectors, driven by the need to manage phosphorus resources more efficiently and sustainably. Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for plant growth, making it a key component in fertilizers. However, traditional phosphorus mining and use have led to environmental concerns, including water pollution and the depletion of finite phosphorus reserves. The market for sustainable phosphorus focuses on developing technologies and practices that reduce waste, recycle phosphorus from waste streams, and improve the efficiency of phosphorus use in agriculture. This includes innovations in precision agriculture, the development of phosphorus-efficient crops, and the recycling of phosphorus from wastewater and agricultural runoff. Growth in this market is driven by increasing awareness of the environmental impact of phosphorus use and the need for sustainable agricultural practices to ensure long-term food security. Regulatory pressures in regions like Europe, where there is a strong focus on environmental protection, are also driving the adoption of sustainable phosphorus solutions.
However, the market faces challenges such as high costs associated with developing and implementing new technologies and the need for widespread adoption of sustainable practices. Despite these challenges, the sustainable phosphorus market is poised for growth, supported by technological advancements and a growing emphasis on sustainability in agriculture.

Market Segmentation:
The sustainable phosphorus market is segmented based on source, application, and end-use. Based on source, the market is segmented into phosphate rock, recycled phosphorous, organic phosphorous, inorganic phosphorous, and others. The market is segmented by application into fertilizers, animal feed, detergents, flame retardants, food additives, nutritional supplements, pharmaceutical ingredients, water treatment, and others. By end use, the market is segmented into agriculture, chemicals, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Based on Application, the Fertilizers Segment is Accounted as a Major Contributor to the Sustainable Phosphorus Market.
The fertilizers category will hold a significant share of the global sustainable phosphorus market in 2023. This is due to phosphorus's essential role in crop growth and agricultural productivity. Phosphorus is a key nutrient in fertilizers, necessary for developing strong roots, flowering, and fruiting in plants. As global food demand rises, the agricultural sector relies heavily on phosphorus-based fertilizers to enhance crop yields and ensure food security. The dominance of fertilizers in this market is further reinforced by the need to improve phosphorus use efficiency and reduce environmental impacts such as eutrophication. Sustainable phosphorus solutions, including precision agriculture and phosphorus recycling from waste, are increasingly being integrated into fertilizer applications to address these challenges.
The Organic Phosphorous Segment Witnessed Growth at a Rapid Rate
The organic phosphorous segment is projected to grow at a rapid rate in the global sustainable phosphorus market due to increasing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable agricultural practices. These sources, derived from natural materials like compost and manure, reduce environmental impact and enhance soil health. The rising popularity of organic farming and regulatory support for sustainable agriculture further drive the growth of organic phosphorus sources.
In the Region, the North American Sustainable Phosphorus Market Holds a Significant Revenue Share.
The North American sustainable phosphorus market is expected to register the highest market share in terms of revenue in the near future. This can be due to its advanced agricultural sector, strong regulatory frameworks, and significant investments in sustainable farming practices. The region’s emphasis on environmental protection and efficient resource management drives the adoption of innovative phosphorus recycling and management technologies. Additionally, the presence of leading agricultural research institutions and companies accelerates the development and implementation of sustainable phosphorus solutions. In addition, Asia Pacific is projected to grow at a rapid rate in the global Sustainable Phosphorus market due to the rapid population growth, increasing food demand, and the need for sustainable agriculture.
Recent Developments:
- In June 2024, Novozymes has been actively developing enzymes that improve phosphorus availability in animal feed, reducing the need for inorganic phosphorus supplements. Novozymes entered into a strategic partnership with a major agricultural company to enhance sustainable farming practices through better phosphorus management.
