Plant Growth Regulators (Auxins, Cytokinins, Gibberellins, Ethylene) Market 2017 - Global Forecast to 2022 - Research and Markets

The "Plant Growth Regulators Market by Type (Auxins, Cytokinins, Gibberellins, Ethylene), Crop Type (Cereals & Grains, Fruits & Vegetables, Oilseeds & Pulses, Turf & Ornamentals), Formulation, Function, and Region - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The Plant Growth Regulators Market is Estimated to Be Valued at 2.11 Billion in 2017, And Projected to Grow at a CAGR of 6.8%, to Reach USD 2.93 Billion By 2022.

The market is driven by factors such as increase in crop production, ease of application, increase in need for food security for the increasing population, and rise in consumer demand for organic foods. The change in farming practices (from traditional to conventional), clubbed with advanced technologies and promotion by the governments of many countries across the world also drives the demand for plant growth regulators in the agricultural sector. However, the long approval period for new product is restraining the growth of the plant growth regulators market.

Based on function, the plant growth promoters segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2016. These substances are obtained either synthetically or biologically of which biological plant growth promoters are more effective and safe. Plant growth promoters are used for improving the quality and productivity of crops.

Based on crop type, the cereals & grains segment accounted for the largest share during the forecast period. Plant growth regulators (PGRs) work on cereals & grains in a way that they shorten the height and straw length of the plant. PGRs are widely used on cereals such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and triticale. Cereals form the key segment of the plant growth regulators market as corn, wheat, and rice are grown abundantly in different countries across the Asia Pacific region. The growing demand for wheat, rice, and corn in the Asia Pacific region has contributed to the growth of the plant growth regulators market here.

Europe formed the largest market for plant growth regulators in 2016, whereas the RoW region is projected to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. Owing to the decreasing agricultural land in the European region, the demand for plant growth regulators in Europe is the largest. The rising in investment in agricultural activities in developing countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Chile, contributes to the growing demand for plant growth regulators in the RoW region, thereby marking the region the fastest-growing market in this domain.
