Pesticides are chemicals used to eliminate or control variety of
pests related to agriculture that can change crop and livestock
and reduce farm productivity. Agricultural chemical (also
known as agrochemicals) are chemical agents such as
fungicides, herbicides and insecticides that are used to control
crop harming organisms. (e.g; fungi, mites, insects, insect egg
INTRODUCTION and larvae) or viruses.
Other agricultural chemicals are agricultural agent such as
rodenticides, nematicides, bactericides and other to control
crop harming organisms such as rodents, nematodes, bacteria
and others
Pesticides are not recent inventions. Many ancient civilization
used pesticides to protect their crop from insects and pests.
Ancient sumerians used elemental sulfur to protect their crops
A BRIEF HISTORY from insects. Whereas, medieval farmers experimented with
chemicals using arsenic, lead on common crops.
However, twenty years later, due to biological effect and humans
safety, DDT has been banned in almost 86 countries.
The pesticides manufacturing market consist of the sales
of pesticides by entities(organizations, sole traders or
partnership) that formulate and prepare agricultural and
PESTICIDES MARKET household pest control chemicals(except fertilizers). The
DEFINITION pesticide and other agricultural chemical
industry/companies comprises establishments that
primarily engage in thee formulation and preparation of
agricultural and household pest control chemicals.
INTENSIVE FARMING TECHNIQUES:
MARKET DRIVERS land through means such as heavy use of pesticides and chemical
fertilizers. These techniques help to meet the rising demand for
food from the growing population and prevent food shortages.
Intensive farming techniques such as monoculture drive the
demand for pesticides. Monoculture is a practice of growing one
type crop intensively over a large area, depleting the nutrients in
the soil and making it heavily depending on pesticides.
Revenue from conventional pesticides, including crop
protection chemicals, herbicides, insecticides and
fungicides, collectively totaled more than us$103.5 Bn as of
2020, respresenting a decline of 3.4% compared to the
CONSUMPTION ANALYSIS OF previous year.
PESTICIDES
Extensive adoption rate of modern farming methods and
policy support from government and policy support from
government agencies is expected to elevate demand for
agrochemicals, including pesticides, over the forecast
period of 2021-2031.
Increasing deforestation and urbanization directly contributes to a decline in
cultivable area, and one way to do this is by using crop protection chemicals.
Advancement in new and innovative technologies improve the yield as well as
lifespan of crops for this, genetic transformation and modification to increase the
KEY production of crops and increase life are done. Adoption of new and innovative
