In 2019, the global agricultural fumigants market size was valued at >1,600 million. Increased use of improved methods for agricultural practices to protect nematodes, agricultural production, rodents, soil from pests, moles, and soil insects over the past few years has increased popularity of agricultural fumigants. The use of agricultural fumigants is both pre-harvest and post-harvest. Fumigants are introduced into the soil to destroy fungi or insects in seeds, grains, etc. during pre-harvest. It is used in post-harvest to reduce any damage from bugs, insects, termites to harvested crops by filling the space with toxic gases.
Increasing awareness among farmers of contamination-free food has resulted in increasing product adoption, which over the projected period is likely to have a positive effect on the demand for agricultural fumigants. Improved storage technology by virtue of increasing concerns about the saving of post-harvest crops will make an effective contribution to the market size of agricultural fumigants in the coming years. However, strict government regulations against the consumption of the product use as it contains toxic gases that can cause serious harm to humans are expected to hinder the demand for agricultural fumigants over the forecast period.

Increasing penetration of agricultural fumigants for storage and production of cereals, rising concern on reducing post-harvest losses, technological advancement in storage and farming practices and methods, and rising insects due to climate changes are expected to open new opportunities for agricultural fumigants industry over the forecast period. Increasing global population followed by increasing government support for strengthening agricultural production in Asia Pacific region is expected to open new avenues for agricultural fumigants industry over the coming years. Rapid research & development and investment over the past few years has developed many efficient and less toxic products and the trend is expected to continue over the coming years. Increasing population, rising consumer inclination towards agricultural output and advanced storage technologies are expected to increase market reach. For instance, according to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the global agricultural output is expected to see tremendous growth by 2050.
Form Segment
In terms of the form, the market is segmented into solid, liquid, and gas form. Solid form for agriculture fumigants includes tablets, pellets, and powder form. Solid form is expected to dominate agriculture fumigants market over the forecast period by virtue of ease of sprinkling and safer for environment as compared to gas and liquid form. Soluble materials used to remove moulds, insects, and rodents, among others, are part of the liquid form. Using traditional sprayers, they are normally sprayed over the desired land area. When it is done in either enclosed chambers or fully open outdoor areas, this method of fumigation is typically considered the safest.
Product Segment
In terms of the product, the market is segmented into chloropicrin, dimethyl disulfide, methyl bromide, metam sodium, 1,3-dichloropropene, and others. Chloropicrin product accounted for nearly 20% of the overall agriculture fumigants market in 2019. Chloropicrin is increasingly used as an alternative to methyl bromide. Additionally, it is combined with 1,3-dichloropropene for better results. 1,3-dichloropropene product is expected to show promising future in coming years by virtue of its high level of sorption coefficient, low vapor pressure, and high degradation rates.
The North America region dominated the overall market in 2019 and it is projected to keep its position during the forecast years 2018-2028. The market growth in this region is mostly ascribed to presence of well-established agrochemical manufacturers such as Agrium, Yara International ASA, Potash Corporation, Monsanto, Bayer Crop Science, Dow Agro Sciences, and BASF SE. Increasing government regulations to protect farming in U.S. and Canada followed by technological enhancement in the area of agricultural practices is further expected to drive the market over the coming years.
Leading companies engaged in agricultural fumigants market are Rentokil, Degesch America, The DOW Chemical Company, UPL, Arkema, BASF, Nufarm, Nippon Chemical Industrial Co., Ltd, Syngenta, AMVAC, FMC Corporation, and Adama. Key companies present in the market are adopting new product development, technological advancement, research & development, investment, merger & acquisition, and partnerships to form strategies in order to stay competitive in the industry and strengthen their distribution network in order to increase their customer base.
