Drivers & Restraints-
Rising Concern over Declining Soil Quality to Augment Growth

The use of chemicals and acidic fertilizers such as calcium nitrate, monoammonium phosphate, and others has resulted in degradation of soil quality. Over the years, this has led to less crop cultivation, eventually leading to the land getting barren. This has propelled the need for organic fertilizers, thereby augmenting the global biofertilizers market growth. Besides this, biofertilizers consist of living microorganisms that help the plants to grow naturally by supplying essential nutrients. It also helps to increase the fertility of the soil. The aforementioned factors are also contributing to the growth of the market.

On the contrary, biofertilizers have high production costs and this may pose a major challenge to the farmers, thereby causing hindrance to the growth of the market. In addition to this, they have a lower shelf-life as compared to chemical fertilizers and have lower versatility. This may also hamper the growth of the market in the forecast years.

Nevertheless, government support in terms of agricultural awareness programs and promotion and distribution of bio-fertilizers are expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for the market in the coming years.
