Physical Form – Segment Analysis
Liquid dicamba herbicide holds the largest share in the global market for dicamba in 2018, due to an increase in spray hoses, air sprayers and aerosol sprays in agricultural processes. Liquid formulations are easy to mix, apply and measure with hose end sprayers or compressed air sprayers.
Crop Type – Segment Analysis
Cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses pastures & forage crops and others, including sugarcane, tea, coffee, fruits and vegetables, are the main types of crops for which dicamba herbicides are used. The segment of oilseeds & pulses is expected to be the fastest growing industry during the forecast period. The cereals & grains segment holds the largest share in the global dicamba market in 2018. The need for dicamba herbicides is driven by rising demand for cereals & grains and high crop loss due to hazardous herbs and weeds.
Geography – Segment Analysis
North America holds the largest share in the global dicamba market in 2018 up to 29%. Glyphosate is commonly used as an herbicide in North America. However, the emergence of glyphosate-resistant weeds has propelled the farmers to adopt dicamba as an alternative herbicide. In addition, the International Agency for Research on Cancer has identified glyphosate with carcinogenic characteristics. This, in turn, has triggered the demand for dicamba herbicide in the region.
Drivers – Dicamba Market
Reduction in arable land and an increase in food demand.
With construction increasing on agricultural lands, the area under crop cultivation is declining. The decrease in arable land is expected to be met by increasing crop yield and production. To satisfy the food needs of the growing population, farmers are using more crop protection chemicals including herbicides, to increase corresponding crop yields per hectare. The use of dicamba herbicides globally as a pre-emergence herbicide in agriculture is significantly increased due to its ability to suppress the growth of perennial weeds in cropland.
Challenges – Dicamba Market
Awaiting Regulatory Consents
Pending regulatory approvals are slowing market growth for new dicamba formulations. For instance, Monsanto and BASF have developed new dicamba mixtures Mon 1661 and Engenia respectively, which can be used on dicamba resistant soybean and cotton that are awaiting EPA approval.
