Mexico Fertilizer Market Overview, 2027

"Mexico, blessed with various agricultural landscapes and a strong agricultural tradition, has a robust fertiliser industry that is critical to the country's agricultural production and food security. Mexico provides a unique setting for agricultural development, spanning from lush plains to high-altitude plateaus, due to its extensive arable areas and diverse climatic conditions. The Mexican fertiliser industry includes a diverse variety of products, including organic and inorganic fertilisers adapted to particular nutritional requirements of different crops and soil types. As Mexico prioritises sustainable farming practises and environmental stewardship, there is a growing need for environmentally friendly fertilisers that increase soil health, reduce environmental impact, and boost crop yields. The market provides a varied array of fertilisers, such as nitrogen-based, phosphorous-based, and potassium-based versions, as well as specialised formulations to treat particular nutritional deficits. With an increased emphasis on precision agriculture and the use of new agricultural technology, Mexico has seen an increase in the usage of novel fertilisers such as controlled-release and foliar fertilisers, which maximise nutrient efficiency and minimise nutrient losses. Furthermore, the Mexican fertiliser market is distinguished by a robust network of domestic and foreign producers, which ensures a consistent supply of high-quality fertilisers while encouraging healthy competition in the industry. Agriculture is an important industry for Mexico's economic growth and food security, and the fertiliser market is evolving as a result of advances in agricultural research, increased awareness of sustainable farming practises, and the desire of higher crop yields. The Mexican fertiliser market is prepared to make a substantial contribution to the country's agricultural growth, assisting farmers in their pursuit of increased productivity and sustainable agricultural practises. According to the report titled """"Mexico Fertilizer Market Overview, 2027"""", published by Bonafide Research, the consumption of the Mexico fertiliser market is expected to grow steadily over the forecast period. Nitrogenous fertilisers dominate the market, while complex fertiliser use is expected to grow in the coming years. However, high prices of complex fertilisers are still a restraint, resulting in low demand from farmers. Cereals and grains have maximum application of fertilizers, while over the forecast period it is expected that fertilisers will be used more to produce oilseeds and pulses. Cereal and grain demands are rising to meet the proportionately growing population around the country. Increased demand for rice, wheat, barley, maize, paddy, and other crops means increased demand for fertilisers to increase yields that are both more in number and also quality. Dry fertilisers dominate the market as they are easy to store and do not require special conditions as they can be kept at room temperature. They are more effective at pre-plantation time as they are slowly released to the seeds. It is cost-effective when buying bulk quantities of fertilizer. Granular fertilisers vary in size and consistency based on the brand and the source of the product. Moreover, dry fertilisers have a longer shelf life. Most dry fertilisers will last an eternity if stored away from moisture and direct sunlight. The rise in demand for dry fertilisers by consumers has generated significant demand for fertilizers. However, uncontrolled use of fertilisers results in pollution of the soil and crops, which affects their growth.

The decrease in arable land in the country is driving the market for fertilizers. Increasing urbanisation and commercialization is another factor resulting in a declining land area for agriculture. Fertilizers are demanded more with the rising food demand from the ever increasing population of the country, and water soluble fertilisers in the forecast period. However, organic fertilisers challenge the demand for chemical fertilizers. Since the farmers are uneducated in developing countries, they lack optimum utilisation of the fertilizers. The recent government regulations pertaining to the use of fertilisers for agricultural purposes act as a growth hindrance. The rise in awareness campaigns to educate farmers regarding the benefits of fertilizers, such as promoting the use of fertilisers via television advertisements and workshops, is estimated to drive the fertiliser demand. COVID-19 Impact: Agriculture was an essential activity and so was exempted from government regulations during the pandemic. But the restrictions on the movement of people and goods created challenges for the industry, halting the supply of fertilizers. Due to non-availability, the farmers were not able to sow the seeds at the proper time and the food production came to a standstill. Due to the shortage of labour and the shutdown of a few fertiliser plants located in the integrated chemical complexes, shipments were affected in the initial lockdown process. China, a major fertiliser supplier to the world markets, was not able to export fertilisers to other countries, which created scarcity and a price hike in fertilizers. However, government initiatives and subsidies after the pandemic have eased the farmers' burdens, giving them relief for fertiliser purchases.
