Multiple manufacturing facilities of players are still in operation. The service providers are providing biofertizer products by following safety and sanitation measures.

Opportunity: New target markets: Asia Pacific & Africa

The Asia Pacific and African regions are the largest consumers of fertilizers. The increasing rate of population, especially in Asia, has resulted in the increasing demand for food, which would, in turn, lead to the increased consumption of fertilizers. However, the major concerns in this region are pollution and contamination of soil as well as their harmful effects on human beings. To combat the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers, governments in these regions are emphasizing on the use of environmental-friendly fertilizers, such as biofertilizers and organic manure.

Challenge: Lack of awareness & low adoption rate of biofertilizers

The lack of awareness in farmers about biofertilizers in underdeveloped and developing countries is creating a challenge for the biofertilizers market. They prefer using chemical fertilizers, as they are easy to handle. This can be attributed to a lack of training and information. Furthermore, the established nature of the chemical fertilizers market is also one of the reasons for the slow adoption of biofertilizers, as conventional fertilizer companies hold a wide range of product offerings and have a strong distribution network.

Higher consumption of biofertilizers for organic fruits & vegetables contributes to the growth of the biofertilizers market in this segment

Biofertilizers have proved to be useful in numerous ways, including improving the quality, shelf-life, and yield of fruits & vegetables. The increasing trend of consumer preferences for organic fruits & vegetables due to changing lifestyle and rising per capita income is the primary factor driving market growth. A rising trend in the cultivation of organic fruits & vegetables and those under IPM practices have also created a positive impact on the growth of the biofertilizers market.

On the basis of form, the dry segment accounted for a larger market share in 2015. The dry form dominated the oryzenin market as it is easy to handle and can be transported easily with lower expenses, which has increased the demand for dry oryzenin powder. In addition, the liquid form needs further processing to be extracted from the dry form, thus increasing the investment.

The rapid growth of economies in Europe has led to the increase in demand for protein. This factor has resulted in the growth of low-cost protein sources such as vegetable proteins that can be used as substitutes for other protein ingredients. European consumers are emphasizing more on healthier lifestyles; hence, protein product manufacturers need to focus on reducing consumer fears concerning its allergies and safety issues. Gluten is found to cause allergies and it has been estimated that up to 90% of protein in wheat is gluten. Amongst northern European consumers, 30% carry genes for gluten intolerance. This creates tremendous opportunity for other sources of proteins which are free from gluten such as rice protein.
