The glyphosate segment, by type, is projected to have the highest CAGR during 2016 to 2022.

The glyphosate segment is projected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This is due to the fact that glyphosate-based products are being widely adopted in various forms such as gels and powders, which are more convenient to use.

Non-selective segment, by mode of action, is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during 2016 to 2022.

Non-selective herbicides, based on the mode of action, are projected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Since non-selective herbicides are formulated for both broadleaf and grass weeds, they find wider application on almost all vegetation types and are preferred more than selective herbicides.

The cereals & grains segment accounted for largest market share in 2015.

Herbicides are applied on a wide scale to most cereal crops to control weeds. Cereals are grown widely across the world, but growth is projected to be higher in the Asia-Pacific region due to increased consumption of rice in the daily diets here. The global demand for herbicides in this segment is high and is projected to grow as producers are focusing on increasing the per unit yield.
