Organic Fertilizers Market Segmentation:

Certification Segment Analysis

The conventional (non-certified organic) sub-segment, which is part of the certification segment, is anticipated to hold the highest share of 70.8% in the organic fertilizers market by the end of 2035. The sub-segment’s upliftment is attributed to the comprehensive adoption of organic fertilizers by traditional farmers, not seeking organic certification, but are increasingly implementing these to optimize soil health and diminish their dependency on synthetic chemicals. This is frequently motivated by agronomic and economic advantages, in comparison to market or regulatory demands. For instance, a traditional wheat or corn farmer may utilize manure or compost to reduce erosion, enhance water retention, and rebuild soil organic matter. This eventually diminishes irrigation expenses and improves yield resilience while continuing to make as of synthetic pesticides as per demand.

Form Segment Analysis

The dry segment, which is part of the form, is projected to cater to the second-highest share in the organic fertilizers market by the end of the stipulated timeline. The segment’s growth is highly driven by its ability to improve soil health and ensure plant growth by offering nutrients slowly, boosting biological activity, and enhancing soil structure. According to an article published by NLM in February 2024, Citrullus lanatus, which is well-known as watermelon, is considered an organic fertilizer that can grow to almost 5 m to 6 m. In addition, it requires a temperature ranging between 21 degrees Celsius to 32 degrees Celsius. Besides, the international watermelon production has reached 101.6 million tons, with China readily ranking at the top position, accounting for 59.9% of the overall population. Likewise, the watermelon production in the U.S. is common in California, Texas, Georgia, and Florida, constituting for 75% of the population, thereby suitable for boosting the segment’s exposure.

Application Segment Analysis

Based on the application, the broadcasting segment is predicted to account for the third-highest share in the organic fertilizers market by the end of 2035. The segment’s development is highly propelled by its compatibility with large-scale farming, cost-effectiveness, and operational simplicity. In addition, this involves uniformly spreading dry, frequently granular, organic fertilizers, such as pelletized products, manure, and compost products, which are usually used with a spreader that is readily attached to a tractor. This particular method is exceptionally efficient for covering massive areas of pastures, cereals, and row crops, wherein precision is less severe than soil enrichment. Moreover, the nature of organic fertilizers, along with their primary function, which frequently improves the overall soil structure and health, thereby denoting an optimistic approach for the segment’s growth.
