Which Major Growth Factors Are Shaping the Agricultural Microbial Market?
Rising awareness about organic farming is expected to propel the growth of the agricultural microbial market going forward. Organic farming is a type of farming that does not use chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or other additives in farming. Organic farming makes use of a varied community of microorganisms to protect plants from illness and maintain soil health and productivity. For instance, in February 2024, according to the IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements), a Germany-based an international organization, the global area under organic farming expanded by 2.5 million hectares in 2023, bringing the total to nearly 99 million hectares. Meanwhile, global sales of organic food rose to approximately 136 billion euros that same year. Therefore, raising awareness about organic farming drives the agricultural microbials market.
