Herbicides market size is projected to present a 6% CAGR to reach USD 50 billion by 2030. Herbicides are crop protection chemicals, grouped under pesticides, which help in the growth of crops by eliminating or restricting the growth of weeds in the field. Adequate application of herbicides in the field positively impacts crop growth, yield quality, and quantity of yield. Surging demand for food across the globe and rising awareness regarding the benefits of applying herbicides pre- and post-cultivation of crops are the significant determinants driving the growth of the global herbicides market. Additionally, the rising adoption of better agricultural practices and integrated pest management technologies are also catalyzing market growth. However, the implementation of stringent regulations against the use of certain herbicides in the developed nations is hampering the market growth herbicides. Germany, France, Switzerland, and the US are amongst the prominent country-level markets with stringent regulations against the use of synthetic herbicides due to their carcinogenic characteristics. Owing to such regulations, market players are focusing on their R&D and introducing bioherbicides in the global market, which, in turn, is paving the way for several growth opportunities for the market players. However, herbicide manufacturers must comply with the stringent approval procedures to commercialize their products, creating challenges in their growth.
