Mancozeb Market Size, Growth & Forecast 2030

[Research Report] The mancozeb market size was valued at US$ 1,148.81 million in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 1,569.57 million by 2030; it is expected to record a CAGR of 4.0% from 2022 to 2030.

MARKET ANALYSIS

Mancozeb is a widely used fungicide and protectant in agriculture and horticulture applications. The chemical compound belongs to the ethylene bis dithiocarbamate (EBDC) class. Mancozeb is known for its broad-spectrum fungicidal properties, making it effective against a wide range of fungal diseases that affect crops. It works by inhibiting fungal growth and development, ultimately protecting plants from infection. This fungicide is often applied as a foliar spray, seed treatment, or mixed into the soil depending on the crop and the specific disease to be controlled. It is also used in turf management for disease prevention on golf courses, lawns, and sports fields. Mancozeb forms a protective barrier on plant surfaces, preventing fungal spores from germinating and spreading. It is commonly used on various crops, including vegetables, fruits, and grains.

GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES

Increasing use of mancozeb for crop protection and yield improvement is the leading factor driving the market. Pesticides, which are used to control insects and weeds, are indispensable in agricultural practices. According to the article "Agricultural Development, Pesticide Application, and Its Impact on the Environment," there would be a 78% loss in fruit production, a 54% decrease in vegetable production, and a 32% decrease in cereal production. This implies the critical role of pesticides in reducing diseases and increasing crop yields. The United Nations estimates that the global population will increase by 2 billion people in the next 30 years; it will increase from 8 billion in 2022 to 9.7 billion by 2050. The population would peak at ~10.4 billion in the 2100. It has also led to a surge in the agricultural sector due to increasing food demand. With a rise in the global population and a consequent rise in the demand for food, agriculturists across the world are focusing on modifying farming practices to obtain high crop yields from smaller cultivation areas. Thus, crop protection and yield enhancement are the key focus areas of the agricultural sector, which signifies the continuous need for fertilizers and pesticides in farming.

Mancozeb enhances crop protection by effectively controlling a wide range of fungal pathogens. This capability provides farmers with a reliable means to safeguard their crops from diseases such as late blight, downy mildew, and rust. With the rise in global food demand, the protection of crops becomes paramount, and mancozeb plays a crucial role in ensuring that crop losses due to fungal infections are minimized. In addition, the use of mancozeb contributes to yield improvement. Preventing or mitigating the damage caused by fungal diseases allows crops to grow more vigorously and produce higher yields. This has a direct positive impact on a farmer's income and food production capacity. Yield improvement is a key factor in addressing the growing global population's demand for food, significantly aiding in the growth of the mancozeb market. However, government regulations play a crucial role in shaping the dynamics of the mancozeb market to ensure public safety, environmental protection, and effective pest control. Mancozeb is a broad-spectrum fungicide used in agriculture, and its usage is subject to various restrictions and guidelines. This leads to a decrease in demand for mancozeb, thereby hindering the market expansion.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 Pandemic/IMPACT OF GEOPOLITICAL SCENARIO/IMPACT OF RECESSION

Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business shutdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected economies and industries in various countries across the globe. The crisis disturbed supply chains, manufacturing activities, delivery schedules, and essential and nonessential product sales. These disruptions restricted the availability of mancozeb. It caused delays in production and increased costs, negatively impacting the overall supply of mancozeb. Many manufacturing facilities were temporarily halted or scaled back during the COVID-19 pandemic to comply with lockdown measures and ensure the safety of workers. In addition, the pandemic impacted the global economy, leading to fluctuations in commodity prices and reduced demand for fungicides.

The global marketplace is recovering from the losses as governments of different countries have announced relaxation in the restrictions. Manufacturing activities are rebounding as countries gradually recover from the pandemic and vaccination efforts continue. Manufacturers are permitted to operate at full capacity to overcome the supply gap. Thus, the global mancozeb market is anticipated to grow significantly during the forecast period.
