Market Overview

Global Specialty Fertilizers Market is poised to report 6.45%year-on-year growth in 2019, driven by several factors
including shrinking arable land, declining working people in farms, growing population and adoption of precision
farming. Increasing investments by the market players for the development of novel specialty fertilizers is anticipated
to boost the market demand over the upcoming years.

Increasing demand for specialty nutrients owing to shifting consumer preference towards healthy lifestyles is the key
opportunity for the growth of speciality fertilizers market. Growing concerns regarding environmental degradation
owing to usage of synthetic fertilizers is compelling the farmers to adopt high efficiency fertilizers. This factor is
expected to offer tremendous growth opportunities for the companies operating in speciality fertilizers industry to
boosts their investments.
Specialty fertilizers are used as best alternative to conventional fertilizers owing to their eco-friendly nature and
labour-saving characteristics. However, the use of these fertilizers is limited primarily to few crop applications due to
their high cost compared to conventional fertilizers. Therefore, this factor is restraining the global specialty fertilizers
market.

Mono ammonium phosphate market is the major segment type in global specialty fertilizers market
The report analyses the global specialty fertilizers market based on type as monoammonium phosphate,
monopotassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, potassium chloride, potassium nitrate, phosphoric
acid, UAN, urea and others.

Of these fertilizers, monoammonium phosphate fertilizer (MAP) is the dominant segment owing to its wide usage as a
source of phosphorous and nitrogen at rapid rate by the farmers in agricultural fields. Due to its high purity and
water solubility nature, MAP is used as an ideal fertilizer in foliar and fertigation applications. Moreover, this
fertilizer also allows plant uptake of phosphorous from soil naturally and improves crop yield. Therefore, all these
factors drive the MAP segment in global specialty fertilizers market.

Turf & ornamentals market is the leading crop type in global specialty fertilizers market
Turf & ornamentals is the fastest growing crop type owing to wide usage of specialty fertilizers by farmers in these
crops to enhance nutrient content of soil and to improve crop yield. Increasing number of these crop fields globally
due to shifting consumer preference towards turf lawns outside their houses, in sports grounds and other areas. On the
other hand, these turf lawns offer environmental benefits such as reducing air pollution, improves soil health and also
generates oxygen. All these factors enable the high production of these crops, which in turn propels the high
consumption of specialty fertilizers.
Cereals & grains segment is also expected to grow during the forecast period owing to growing population coupled
with rising demand for high nutrient cereals & grains.
Further, the global specialty fertilizers market is segmented into fruits & vegetables and others

Slow release fertilizer market remains as the dominant action segment

Excellent cost to performance ratio and ease of availability are driving the slow release fertilizers segment in global
specialty fertilizers market. Furthermore, slow release fertilizers are widely used owing to their easy spreadable

Specialty Fertilizers
nature and suitable for covering broad areas. Therefore, slow release fertilizers are preferred at rapid rate by the
farmers, which in turn fuels the overall market growth.
In addition to slow release fertilizers, the global specialty fertilizers market is segmented intocontrolled release
fertilizers, micronutrient fertilizers, nitrification & urease inhibitors and others.

North America emerged as the largest market for speciality fertilizers

North America speciality fertilizers market is the fastest growing market followed by Asia Pacific in global specialty
fertilizers market and is expected to grow during the forecast period. North America accounts for largest market
share due to presence of well-established market leaders of specialty fertilizers that include Agrium Inc. and the
Scotts Company in the region. Growing awareness levels regarding the speciality fertilizers benefits is another factor
driving the North America speciality fertilizers market.

Further, the global specialty fertilizers market is also analysed for countries across Europe, South & Central America,
and Middle East & Africa.

Competitive landscape for global specialty fertilizers market:

Agrium Inc. (Canada), Clariant (Switzerland), Eurochem (Switzerland), Haifa Chemicals (Israel), Israel Chemical
Limited (Israel), Sinochem Group (China), Sociedad Quimica y Minera S.A. (Chile), The Mosaic Company (United
States), The Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. (Canada), and Yara International ASA (Norway).
