Growing environmental concern, increasing demand for organic food, advancement in manufacturing process of organic fertilisers, availability of organic waste, are some of the factors driving the Organic fertilisers Market.
The Overview
The growth of the Organic fertilisers Market is driven by rising environmental awareness. The global population is quickly increasing, necessitating an increase in agricultural production to meet the growing population’s food needs. Chemical fertilisers have become widely used to increase agricultural production all over the globe. Because of their negative impacts on plant physiology, soil quality, animals, and humans, the increased use of agrochemical inputs has been a source of dispute for a long time.
Ammonia, methane, nitrous oxide, and elemental nitrogen are all released into the environment when residues are left in the soil. Agricultural pesticides have been associated with a wide range of human health risks, including short-term effects like headaches and nausea, as well as long-term effects including cancer, reproductive harm, and endocrine disruption. fertilisers include nitrogen and other chemicals that can contaminate groundwater and cause blue baby syndrome if consumed. As a result of the negative environmental effects of chemical fertilisers, growers are increasingly turning to organic fertilisers as a safe alternative to chemical fertilisers. To improve agricultural productivity, organic fertilisers are made from natural plant leftovers and trash, animal manures and excreta, microorganisms, and botanical extracts.
Organic fertilisers disintegrate quickly and have no detrimental impact on surface or groundwater, making them safer for humans, animals, birds, and anything else that comes into contact with them. These fertilisers have a long shelf life and improve soil structure while enhancing water and nutrient retention capacity. They are favoured for producing residue-free agricultural produce since they are slow-releasing, non-toxic fertilisers that do not leave any residues in the food. As a result, factors such as the growing need to increase agricultural production and increased awareness of the negative impacts of chemical inputs and the benefits of organic fertilisers help to drive significant growth of the Organic fertiliser Market.
