In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), agricultural practises heavily depend on crop protection chemicals. These substances are used to protect crops from weeds, diseases, and pests, promoting healthy development. In the United Arab Emirates, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators are frequently used crop protection chemicals.Insecticides are used to control and eliminate insect pests that can damage crops. They target a wide range of pests such as aphids, caterpillars, mites, and beetles. Some commonly used insecticides in the UAE include pyrethroids, neonicotinoids, and organophosphates. Herbicides are chemicals used to control unwanted weeds that compete with crops for nutrients, water, and sunlight. They help maintain the desired crop population and reduce weed pressure. Common herbicides used in the UAE include glyphosate, paraquat, and 2,4-D. Fungicides are used to prevent and treat fungal diseases in crops. Fungal infections can cause yield losses and reduce the quality of agricultural produce. Different types of fungicides are available for specific fungal pathogens affecting various crops. Some commonly used fungicides include triazoles, strobilurins, and dithiocarbamates. Plant growth regulators are chemicals that influence the growth and development of plants. They are used to regulate plant height, flowering, fruit setting, and ripening. Plant growth regulators can enhance crop productivity and improve quality. Examples of plant growth regulators include auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins. According to the report titled, “United Arab Emirates (UAE) Crop protection Chemical Overview, 2027”, published by Bonafide Research the market is segmented by product type, by application, and by country. The UAE has made significant advancements in adopting modern agricultural practices, including the use of crop protection chemicals. These chemicals have played a crucial role in increasing agricultural productivity and ensuring food security in the region. The UAE places importance on sustainable agriculture and is actively working towards reducing the environmental impact of crop protection chemicals. Efforts are being made to promote integrated pest management (IPM) practices, which combine multiple strategies to minimize chemical use and encourage more environmentally friendly alternatives. The UAE faces unique challenges in agriculture due to its arid desert climate. Crop protection chemicals are used to combat pests and diseases that thrive in such conditions. The development and use of specialized chemicals suited for desert agriculture have contributed to the growth of the agricultural sector in the country. The UAE is investing in research and innovation in the field of crop protection chemicals. The country has established research institutes and agricultural centers that focus on developing new and effective chemical formulations, studying the impact of chemicals on the environment, and exploring alternative pest management approaches. The UAE has strict regulations in place to ensure the safe and responsible use of crop protection chemicals. These regulations cover aspects such as registration, labeling, storage, handling, and disposal of chemicals. The aim is to protect human health, safeguard the environment, and prevent the misuse or overuse of these chemicals. The UAE actively participates in international collaborations and partnerships related to crop protection chemicals. This includes sharing knowledge, best practices, and research findings with other countries to improve agricultural practices and promote sustainable crop protection methods. The UAE has been working towards diversifying its crop production to reduce its reliance on food imports. Crop protection chemicals are used to cultivate a variety of crops, including fruits, vegetables, grains, and fodder. This diversification aims to enhance food security and support the country's self-sufficiency goals. On the basis of product type, it is predicted that the herbicides will have the highest growth rate owing to their efficiency in weed removal. This product reduced the cost of weed removal by 96% as earlier weed removal was done majorly through manual processes. The growth of the market is hindered by the increasing awareness amongst the consumer towards he usage of chemical on food items. Further, the improper usage of such products have increased illness amongst the endconsumer. This is one of the major factor obstructing the growth of the market. The government to tackle this problem conducts awareness drive amongst the agricultural farmers making them aware about the right usage of the product in terms of Quantity and application. Along with this the evolution of Super weeds have posed as a problem for the market. Super weeds are those weed plants which have grown immune to crop protection chemicals over a period of constant exposure. COVID-19 Impact The pandemic was a worldwide phenomenon which affected almost every industry vertical in some way or the other. The Crop protection Chemical market was no exception to this. The market was affected moderately as the agricultural practices never really came to a halt. But the negative effect was felt with respect to the supply chain and manufacturing process which was created due to lockdowns and travels restrictions. Considered in the report • Geography: United Arab Emirates (UAE) • Base year: 2021 • Historical year: 2016 • Forecasted year: 2027 Aspects covered in the report • Market Size by Value for the period (2016-2027F) • Market Share by Product Type • Herbicide • Insecticide • Fungicides & Bactericides • Others • Market Share by Application • Cereals & Grains • Oilseeds & Pulses • Fruits & Vegetables • Others • Various drivers and challenges • On-going trends and developments • Top profiled companies • Strategic recommendation The approach of the report: We keep an eye on evolving markets and try to evaluate the potential of the products and services. If we find the market interesting, we start working on it and create the desired table of content, considering all aspects of the business. We start by creating separate questionnaires for C-level executives, national/regional sales personnel, company owners, dealers, distributors, and end-users. Once the questionnaires have been finalized, we start collecting the primary data (mostly through phone calls) and try to understand the market dynamics regionally or tier-wise. This process gives us in-depth details of the market, including all present companies, the top-performing products withreasons why they dominate; we get the details of new players and their innovative approaches; market trends; dynamics; and all the small details of the market. After the collection of primary inputs, we then cross-check the same with secondary sources that include associations, trade journals, annual reports, paid databases, newspapers, magazines, press releases, government sources, etc. From this, we get a rough estimate of the market and start checking existing product price variants, trade, production, raw material scenarios, policies and regulatory landscape, etc. Then, to finalize the market, we start collecting financials of each player present in the market, including limited, private limited, and LLPs. Moreover, we perform cross-industry and cross-regionanalysis of the product, and based on collected primary inputs and using statistical modeling, we start forecasting the market. We follow our forecasting algorithm, which is unique for each product but gives more weight age to primary inputs. At the same time, the content team starts preparing company profiles, market dynamics, market trends, five forces, PEST analysis, etc. Once the data is verified by the data expert, the team (primary team, content team, and data team) together crosscheck the segmentations, validate the market, and then the designing team starts plotting the graphs. Once the file is ready, the content team completes the report and makes sure that all the discussed points have been covered and provides their valuable inputs in the form of strategic recommendations for new as well as existing players. The QC team then checks the overall report that includes spell check, data verification, and makes the same dispatch ready and error-free. Intended Audience: This report can be useful to industry consultants, manufacturers, suppliers, associations & organizations related to the Agriculture industry, government bodies, and other stakeholders to align their market-centric strategies.
