Grain Protectants Market Research Report: by Type (Chemical [Insecticides, Rodenticides, Others], Biological, Physical), Target Pest (Rodents, Insects [Beetles, Grain Borers, Weevils, Others], Others), Grain Type (Rice, Wheat, Corn, Others) and Region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World) - Forecast till 2027

Grain Protectants Market Scenario

Grain Protectants Market is expected to garner revenue of USD 1.2 Billion by 2027 at a CAGR of approximately 5.31%during the forecast period of 2021–2027. The notable market growth can be attributed to the need for storing grains to overcome the impact of fluctuating market prices of grains. Farmers, traders, and stockists store their grains in warehouses until desirable market prices are received and demand for grains exceeds the supply. Another challenge faced during the storage of grains is the post-harvest loss caused during the storage due to pest infestation. To overcome such a challenge, grain protectants are widely being used to protect the grains from pest loss during storage, which, in turn, is driving the market growth of grain protectants. However, frequent usage of chemical grain protectants has led to increasing insecticide resistance in insects, thus hampering the sales of chemical insecticides and growth of market. The major challenge being faced by the market players is the availability of chemical residues used to protect the grains. The market is expected to emerge lucrative for the vendors active in the market due to the launch of innovative products that overcome the limitations of banned grain protection chemicals.
