"China, the world's most populous country and an agricultural powerhouse, has a growing fertiliser business that is critical to the country's agricultural sector. China relies on fertilisers to improve soil fertility, raise crop yields, and fulfil the country's ever-increasing need for food and agricultural goods, owing to its large and diversified agricultural terrain. The Chinese fertiliser market provides a diverse range of products, including nitrogen-based, phosphorus-based, and potassium-based fertilisers, as well as sophisticated mixes customised to specific crop needs. As the country modernises its agricultural practises and implements more sustainable farming methods, there is a rising emphasis on ecologically friendly fertilisers that minimise nutrient loss and have a low environmental effect. The Chinese government's initiatives to promote balanced fertilization and improve soil quality have further propelled the demand for efficient and eco-friendly fertilizer products. Moreover, technological advancements and innovations have led to the development of precision fertilization techniques, allowing farmers to optimize nutrient application and minimize waste. China's fertilizer market is characterized by a strong network of domestic manufacturers and international players, offering a competitive landscape that fosters innovation and product diversification. With an increasing emphasis on food security and sustainable agriculture, the Chinese fertilizer market continues to evolve, contributing to the nation's agricultural development and its position as a global agricultural leader. According to the report titled """"""""China Fertilizer Market Overview, 2027"""""""", published by Bonafide Research, the consumption of the China 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.

Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and listing out the companies that are present in the market. The secondary research consists of third party sources such as press releases, annual report of companies, analysing the government generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources primary research was conducted by making telephonic interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducted trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this we have started doing primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting consumers in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us we have started verifying the details obtained from secondary sources. Intended audience This report can be useful to industry consultants, manufacturers, suppliers, associations & organizations related to fertilizer industry, government bodies and other stakeholders to align their market-centric strategies. In addition to marketing & presentations, it will also increase competitive knowledge about the industry. Please get in touch with our sales team to find out more."""" """
