Increase in the global trade of rodenticides

Germany is one of the global leaders engaged in the export of rodenticides. It is followed by India, the US, the UK, Belgium, and Italy. Germany has a presence of major chemical companies, such as Bayer AG and BASF SE, which have a wide portfolio of insect pest control products. The country is a major exporter of rodenticides to countries, such as the Netherlands, the UK, and France. These countries import rodenticides due to their high-quality standards, fewer transportation costs, and easy accessibility. India is emerging as a potential export hub for high-quality rodenticides due to low-cost manufacturing and the security of patented new active ingredients. India majorly exports rodenticides to countries, such as Brazil, the US, and the Netherlands. China is a dominant exporter of rodenticides to Southeast Asian countries, such as Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia. This increase in demand for rodenticides across the globe is attributed to factors, such as government initiatives for health awareness programs, an increase in crop losses, and a rise in health concerns due to rodent attacks.

Sprays are Permitted for use only by Professional Pest Applicators

Most fumigants include phosphide compounds, such as zinc and aluminum phosphides. Bromides are also used for rodent treatment in a few countries. Carbon dioxide is also used as a fumigant against commensal mice. Fumigants or rodenticides in the spray form are used in warehouses, along with minimal use in agricultural fields. Sprays cannot be used in urban areas because they cause health concerns in humans and other non-target animals. Fumigants are used for destroying rodent burrows through gassing. It involves the insertion of either pellets or tablets in the rodent burrow, which are then sealed with soil. The gases evolved to build up to concentrations that are lethal to the rodents occupying the burrows

North America and Asia Pacific are the major exporters of crops across the globe. High quantities of grains are stored in warehouses, and fumigants, are majorly used in these warehouses for rodent control. In addition, sprays of zinc phosphide are used against mouse plagues in Australia.

Opportunity: Rapid growth in the biopesticides market and organic agriculture

Biopesticides are pesticides produced naturally, with minimum usage of chemicals. Since growing environmental considerations and the pollution potential and health hazards from many conventional pesticides are on an increase, the demand for biopesticides has been rising steadily in all parts of the world. Biopesticides are growing in popularity, due to their less or non-toxic nature as compared to synthetic pesticides. Moreover, biopesticides provide more targeted activity to desired pests, unlike conventional pesticides that often affect a broad spectrum of insects, birds, and mammalian species. Further, biopesticides can be very effective in small quantities, offering lower exposure and are quickly decomposable; they leave virtually no harmful residue after application.

The liquid segment, by form, is estimated to hold the largest share in the Crop protection chemicals during the forecast period.

Liquid forms of crop protection chemical products are preferred more by suppliers as well as end-users. Liquid forms offer a longer shelf-life with easy handling, transportation, and application. Also, they are cost-effective, eco-friendly, and sustainable. Companies are investing in the technological development of crop protection chemicals in liquid forms. The liquid forms of crop protection chemicals can either be water-based, oil-based, polymer-based, or their combinations. Typical liquid formulating lines consist of storage tanks or containers to hold active ingredients, inert materials, and a mixing tank for formulating the crop protection chemical products. Water-based formulations require inert ingredients such as stabilizers, stickers, surfactants, coloring agents, anti-freeze compounds, and additional nutrients. Examples of liquid forms are suspension concentrate, suspo-emulsions, and capsule suspension.

Cereals & grains, by crop type, is estimated to account for the largest market share during the forecast period.

The cereals & oilseeds segment accounted for the largest market share in terms of value; this is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The demand for cereals & oilseeds is increasing significantly across the globe owing to the increasing demand for food.

South America is estimated to hold the largest market share during the forecast period.

South America is an emerging agricultural powerhouse, growing at a rapid pace above the global growth average. Growth in this region is significantly contributed by the growth in Brazil and Argentina, which are the world’s most potent agricultural producers and are expected to grow well above the regional average. The economic growth in South America has been stimulated by democratization, economic reforms, and the foundation of the two trading blocs namely, Mercosur and the Andean Pact.

Regulatory framework in South America is quite weak as compared to North America and Europe. The South American Pesticide Action Network controls the regulatory issues in the region. The international trade system from the WTO for regional and bilateral trade deals also undermines national pesticide laws and threatens the ability of South American nations to prohibit dangerous chemicals from being used. This is especially observed in the case of WTOs demand for establishing certain common minimum standards for pesticides among countries. For instance, if a country wants to implement a stricter standard on pesticides as compared to the WTO, it could be recognized as a technical barrier to trade.
