"Controlled-release Fertilizers Market, By Type (Slow-release (Urea-formaldehyde, Urea-isobutyraldehyde, Urea-acetaldehyde, and Other slow-release fertilizers (Crotonylidenediurea)), Coated & encapsulated (Sulfur coatings, Polymer coatings, Sulfur-polymer coatings, and Other Coated Fertilizers (Condensation Polymers, Drying Oils, Waxes, and Bitumen)), and Nitrogen Stabilizers (N-Stabilizers) (Nitrification inhibitors and Urease inhibitors)), By Application (Grains & Cereals, Pulses & Oilseeds, Commercial Crops, Fruits & Vegetables, Turf & Ornamentals, and Other Applications), and By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) - Trends, Analysis and Forecast till 2034”.

Key Highlights:

In August 2019, Yara International ASA entered into a collaboration agreement with Nel Hydrogen Electrolyser, a division of Nel ASA, for low-carbon-footprint fertilizer production at Yara’s existing plant in Porsgrunn, Norway. This project was funded by the Research Council of Norway, Innovation Norway, and Enova through the PILOT-E program.
In March 2019, Yara International ASA developed Yaralix, a tool for precision farming. It allows farmers to measure crop nitrogen requirements using their smartphones. The system is embedded with a free-to-download application which is designed to handle the smartphone camera to regulate nitrogen requirements for different crops in the early growth stages.

Analyst View:

In the current scenario there is a serious need for improving the efficiency of fertilizer, therefore the anticipated benefits from the controlled release fertilizers are projected to propel the market over the forecast period. Controlled release fertilizers result in the need for fewer benefits, which thereby decreases equipment costs and labor. Further, product differentiation offers a good marketing opportunity for organizations. With less frequent application required, there is a more uniform growth response from crops, allowing techs to perform other duties during their scheduled stops.

Key Market Insights from the report:

The controlled-release fertilizers market accounted for US$ 2.3 billion in 2024 and is estimated to be US$ 6.3 billion by 2034 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.70%. The market report has been segmented on the basis of type, application, and region.

By type, the slow-release segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment. Urea-formaldehyde fertilizers are almost effective in high temperatures. Hence, they are used in regions having warm climatic conditions such as the southwestern region of the US and the Asia Pacific Mediterranean region in Europe.
By application, the controlled-release fertigation demand has been mostly concentrated in high-value crops such as plantation crops (cocoa, pepper, and rubber), fiber crops (jute and cotton), and ornamentals, as they require the application of fertilizers to increase the crop yield and quality.
By region, The Asia Pacific estimates for the highest share in terms of value & volume, and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. Rapid growth of high-value crops and increasing awareness among farmers about the environmental benefits of controlled-release fertilizers are projected to offer more lucrative scope for the target market expansion.
