/EIN News/ -- Dublin, Oct. 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Biostimulants Market 2019-2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to the author, the global biostimulants market is expected to display a positive market trend over the forecast period of 2019-2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.46% and a CAGR of 11.05% in terms of revenue and in terms of volume, respectively.

The growing demand for organic food and rising sustainable farming help increase the adoption of biostimulants, thus, driving the growth of this market. Biostimulants have a major role to play in organic farming & gardening, and they are also witnessing healthy growth in conventional agriculture.

The expanding health-conscious consumer base around the globe is opting for organic food, to avoid adverse health effects caused by chemical preservatives or genetically modified ingredients of inorganic food. In response to the consumer demand for healthy food products with minimal environmental repercussions, farmers are looking for more efficient ways to use synthetic chemicals and mineral fertilizers.

Pesticides or fertilizers are not used in the production of organic food products; this has raised the demand for plant biostimulants. The need for bio-based agrochemicals and encouragement from European governments promoting sustainable agriculture are key opportunities helping the market to grow further. However, the market faces certain restraints and challenges, such as, insufficient knowledge regarding the use of biostimulants and the lack of standardization, which considerably limit the market growth.

Regional Outlook

North America, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Europe and the Middle East and Africa are the regions covered by the global biostimulants market.

APAC is the fastest-growing region in the global biostimulants market. China, Japan, India, Korea and Australia are the major contributors to the growth of this region. South Korea is anticipated to be the fastest-growing country in the Asia-Pacific market during forecast period 2019-2027.

The growing the importance of organic farming, need for enhanced productivity and the rising demand for high-quality agricultural products are the most significant factors that are expected to increase the use of biostimulants in the region, particularly in China, Japan and India.

A number of unauthorized or local players are operating in this market, due to absence of stringent regulations. Key leading players are introducing new, innovative biostimulants and taking initiatives to spread awareness about the benefits of utilizing sustainable agriculture inputs.
