Potassium Humate Market Outlook:
Potassium Humate Market size was over USD 976.6 million in 2025 and is poised to exceed USD 1.38 billion by 2035, witnessing over 3.5% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of potassium humate is estimated at USD 1.01 billion.
The rising awareness of risks associated with chemical fertilizers such as soil degradation, water pollution, and negative impacts on human health, is driving the growth of the market. As per a report, by 2050, nearly 90% of Earth's soils may have deteriorated from their current state of 33% degradation. Potassium humate offers a sustainable alternative as it is derived from natural sources, promotes soil health, enhances nutrient uptake by plants, and reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, thus appealing to environmentally conscious consumers and agricultural practices.
Due to the growing global use of fertilizers, where it is anticipated that there will be a significant demand for fertilizers over the evaluation period. This potassium humate fertilizer, which is composed of humic and fulvic acid as well as raw humates (plant matter), is an incredibly effective solution for sustainable agriculture. It also helps to increase nitrogen efficiency, which makes it a possible urea supplement. Thus, the addition of these basic materials to humate fertilizer improves the soil's capacity to retain nutrients, thereby bolstering nutrient absorption.
