The herbicides segment of the Crop protection chemicals is projected to account for the largest share, by type

Herbicides are substances that kill or inhibit growth of unwanted plants (weeds). They are widely used in weed control, which helps in enhancing crop productivity and quality of output. Herbicides help in reducing soil erosion and increase soil fertility and crop yield. They are used to control or kill unwanted plants and are often known as weed killers. Use of herbicides in agroecosystems may change composition of weed populations. In wildlands, herbicides may increase the diversity of native species. Threats to plant biodiversity caused by habitat loss and invasive species are far greater than threats by use of herbicides. Some non-selective pesticides are used in weed waste grounds, industrial sites, railways, and railway embankments. Herbicides are heavily consumed in the agricultural sector and in landscape turf management.

The synthetic segment dominated the market for Crop protection chemicals by source.

Synthetic crop protection chemicals are manufactured in laboratories and are mixtures of chemicals that intend to avert, kill, repel, or destroy any pests. Synthetic crop protection chemicals are perceived to be toxic and dangerous if proper chemicals are not used. However, since the past 60 years, various innovative synthetic crop protection chemicals have been developed which are less toxic and more effective on crops. Due to innovative product development by the leading crop protection chemical manufacturing companies such as BASF SE (Germany), various new and more pest-specific synthetic crop protection chemicals are being developed, which cause less damage to the environment.

By source, the malt extract segment is estimated to hold the largest share in the brewing ingredients market

The market includes five major sources: malt extract, adjuncts/grains, hops, beer yeast, and beer additives. The malt extract segment is further bifurcated into standard malt and specialty malts. Brewing-grade malt extracts are made with the highest-quality brewing malts and get additional colors and flavors from using specialty malts. This gives beer the unique character and flavor desired for the particular style brew. These malts often have a longer time in the kiln, at higher temperatures, or get roasted to add depth, complexity, and flavor to the resulting beer. Specialty malts include less in the way of sugars but have a greater influence on the color of the beer. These malts are widely used in craft beers.

By brewery size, the craft brewery is estimated to grow at a higher growth rate in the brewing ingredients market.

According to the Brewers Association, an American craft brewer is a small and independent brewer, where small breweries have an annual production of 6 million barrels of beer or less. The craft brewing industry contributed USD 82.9 billion to the US economy in 2019, with more than 580,000 employees. The average alcohol by volume (ABV) content of a craft beer is 5% to 10%, but some of the most popular craft beers have an ABV of as high as 40%. On the other hand, beer produced in bulk by macro breweries has an ABV of 4% to 6% and as little as 2%. Craft breweries offer different flavors, which allow consumers with different tastes to cater to their preferences. These factors are driving the growth of the craft brewery segment in the global market.

Health Benefits of Chocolates

Chocolates have a long history of being used as a health food. In the 18th century, a chocolaty drink was used in England to prevent and cure stomach aches. Today, ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) is used to compare the antioxidant capacity of different foods. Chocolates, along with apples and blueberries, are considered to be one of the best ORAC rating foods. Instead of relying on medication, consumers prefer to incorporate ingredients that improve their health into their normal diet. Dark chocolate is becoming more popular among consumers due to its high cocoa content and flavonoids, especially a subtype known as flavanols that is linked to a lower risk of heart disease. Additionally, those who consume dark chocolate or high cocoa content have a lower chance of developing insulin resistance and high blood pressure. Thus, the health benefits associated with cocoa and its products are the biggest driver for the cocoa and chocolate market.

Seasonal and Festive-related Sales

Chocolate is considered a traditional gift on special occasions and festivals such as Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and Valentine’s Day in American and European countries, a trend which is now adopted in some Asian countries such as India, China, and Japan. Chocolate sales shoot up during festive seasons. Keeping this seasonal effect of sales in mind, companies trying to venture into developing economies, such as India and China, are focusing on specialty products for traditional festivals such as the Chinese New Year, Raksha Bandhan, and Diwali in India. Currently, the seasonal and festive sales of chocolate products highly impact the market as a large portion of chocolate products are consumed in this segment. Depending on the situation, they are produced in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and product materials. Thus, this high demand for chocolates and its products during festivals would enhance the market for cocoa and chocolate.

Large Number of Applications

The market for the dry segment is projected to account for the largest share during the forecast period, by form

By form, the dry segment accounted for the highest market share as well as the highest growth rate in the global market due to the factors such as easy handling and storability, usage in a wide range of livestock applications, and lower manufacturing costs. Feed premixes in the dry form are easier to mix with feed and provide a longer shelf life than in the liquid form, due to which they witness high preference among feed manufacturers.

By livestock, the poultry segment dominated the global feed premix market

The poultry industry consists of four main areas of production—broiler, eggs, pullets, and breeders. It is a fast-evolving industry due to the rapid increase in demand for poultry meat, particularly in India and many Islamic countries. In these countries, the consumption of porcine and livestock meat (India) is projected to be low due to religious beliefs, which, in turn, increases the demand for poultry meat.

In addition, the global demand for poultry meat is further set to rise in the coming years due to the increased cost and reduced availability due to the rise in demand for beef and pig meat. Poultry, the most traded meat category, accounts for over 40% of the total meat trade. According to the FAO, global poultry meat production was nearly 111.8 million tons in 2015. Furthermore, the demand for poultry meat is projected to remain high in developing economies.
