The global biostimulants market size is expected to reach USD 4.6 billion by 2030, as per the new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2023 to 2030. This is attributable to surging consumption of the product in several end-use applications such as foliar, seed, and soil treatment. Foliar treatment held the largest market share in the global market on account of its vast adoption across the agricultural sector. The treatment is highly performance efficient on account of the direct application of the product onto the leaves of the plant. The application procedure is highly labor-intensive but also leads to the minimal wastage of biostimulant. Its extensive benefits over other application techniques have resulted in augmented demand for the product.Synthetic fertilizer is presently used in large amounts in most regions for soil amendment. However, the growing focus on providing environmental sustainability, improving the soil, and crop yield as well as enhancing the overall productivity has caused a shift toward biobased solutions such as biostimulants. This is expected to have a positive impact on the market in the near future.
