Latin America Agriculture Biologicals Market by Type (Biopesticides, Biofertilizers And Biostimulants), Application, Geography - Analysis and Forecast to 2019

The Latin American Agricultural Biologicals market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 15.8%, from 2014 to 2019. Agricultural biologicals are used as a part of Integrated Pest Management (IPM), wherein these substances are used in combination with new synthetic crop chemistries. Agricultural biologicals present a new mode of action for weeds, mildew, and insects and protect plants from these. The usage of agricultural biologicals assists farmers in maximizing yield and reducing plant stress, thereby increasing plant productivity. Advantages of using such Agricultural biologicals for crops are that they allow growers to save time involved in crop harvest required due to the use of conventional chemicals.

Agricultural Biologicals are used in cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, oilseed & pulses, and rest crops. The concept of organic farming signifies the production of healthy crops, without harming the natural environment. Agricultural Biologicals are essential tools utilized in organic farming for the purposes, such as methods to build effective soil structure and fertility that affects crop growth, and crop protection techniques which help in the prevention of plant damage from pests, weeds, and other related crop diseases.

In 2014, the Latin American agricultural biologicals market was dominated by Brazil, followed by Argentina. The Agricultural biologicals are used more in cereals and grains than any other crop type in Latin America. The market for organic products in Latin America is growing at a substantial rate due to the increasing consumer interest. The main reasons for the increased demand in the organic food market are growth in the number of health conscious individuals, increasing concern about the environment, and support provided by the government.

The Latin American Agricultural Biologicals market is competitive, with firms such as BASF SE (Germany), Bayer CropScience AG (Germany), Marrone Bio Innovations, Inc. (U.S.), Isagro (Italy), and Novozymes A/S (Denmark), among others, which are expanding their market share in the concerned market. To gain market share, these companies are adopting a number of market strategies such as innovative product development, partnerships, mergers & acquisitions, and expansion of existing facilities.

According to the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), an agricultural biologicals system is defined as an ecologically, socially, and economically sustainable agricultural production system, which promotes safe products minimizing environmental adverse consequences and the use of non-renewable natural resources.

In other words, agricultural biologicals are organic and ecological agriculture systems, which discourage the use of synthetic and chemical fertilizers, thereby helping in conserving the environment. In these agriculture systems, the use of synthetic fertilizers such as biocides, genetic modifications, and other chemical fertilizers are avoided. The whole biological system is based on organic green manure/residues/animal manure and other ecological methods (bio-control methods) and techniques.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the Latin American market for agricultural biologicals. This report includes revenue forecasts, market trends, and opportunities for the period from 2014 to 2019. The analysis has been conducted on the various market segments derived on the basis of type, application, and geography. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into biopesticides, biostimulants, and biofertilizers; the main applications of the market include cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables, and rest (crops). The geographical analysis includes Brazil, Argentina, and others. The report also includes the key market drivers and inhibitors, along with their impact, in detail.

The Latin American agricultural biologicals market was valued at $565.27 million in 2014 and is projected to reach $1,178.42 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 15.8% during the forecast period. The market, by application, is led by cereals and grains in 2014. In Latin America, Brazil held the largest share in the agricultural biologicals market. It constitutes 39.66% of the total Latin American agricultural biologicals market. Biopesticides are mostly consumed in Latin America than other biological types.
