Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka are the key sales hub in Southern India. Porter’s Five Forces analysis depicts an overall market scenario. A brief description of the drivers that helps the sector to prosper includes large subsidies, capitalization of opportunity presented by low consumption, increase in food grain production and appropriate monsoon. Cost of production of fertilizers is high owing to its inputs like naptha or even natural gas. Fertilizers manufacturing is a tedious process that usually ends up having high costs. In order to prevent reduced profitability due to high input costs, players hike prices transferring the increased cost burden to end consumers. This has a negative impact on the domestic fertilizer market as small farmers face acute affordability issues. The Indian Government witnessed this trend and offered large subsidies to the players in a bid to keep the prices moderate and result in off-takes. It has insulated the farmers from price hikes even in times of price rise in raw materials thereby keeping it more within the reach of them. Even though India has witnessed a rise in fertilizer consumption over the period of time, it is still low against the global average. Countries including China, Malaysia and Bangladesh rank above India in terms of fertilizer consumption. Low usage poses as opportunity that can be capitalized by the players both from the perspective of production and consumption. Fertilizers find its usage in enhancing food productivity and thereby as food grain production increases, fertilizers also witness an upward movement. Finally, good monsoon acts as a potential stimulant for the growth of the sector. As agriculture in India is predominantly monsoon dependent, good spells of rainfall gets translated into higher usage of fertilizers with the purpose of enhancing crop yields. Whereas, factors identified as a hindrance to the market include increased prices of raw materials, price hike in natural gas and environmental degradation by fertilizers. The next section talks about Government regulation in the sector and primarily includes Department of Fertilizers, nutrient based subsidy and certain Government schemes.

Crop Protection Chemicals Market by Type (Herbicides, Fungicides, Insecticides, Bio-pesticides and Adjuvants), Geography, Price Trends and Global Forecasts (2011-2016) Price Single User $4,650.00 Multi User $5,650.00 Corporate Licence $7,150.00 Enterprise Site Licence $9,000.00 Publication Date: Sep-2011 Format: PDF Pages: 438 Publisher: MarketsandMarkets Table of Contents The global crop protection market consists of crop protection chemicals or agrochemicals, seeds, and genetically modified (GM) crops. Crop protection chemicals are the most dominating segment of this market in terms of market share as well as product innovations. Crop protection chemicals are further classified as pesticides (herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides), bio-pesticides, micronutrients, and adjuvants. As the latter three segments hold very minor market share, in general practice, pesticides are referred to as crop protection chemicals. Pesticides are basically segmented further as synthetic pesticides and bio-based pesticides. Bio-based pesticides, as the name suggests, are made up of renewable resources and contain no synthetic active ingredients. These pesticides have a much more positive impact on the environment than their synthetic counterparts and are expected to be amongst the fastest growing pesticide segments in the near future.

Global Fertilizers Market: Focus on Compound Fertilizers Price: $800.00 (€630.51) ($960.00 (€756.62) Including VAT at 20%) Publication Date: 01-Jun-2010 Format: PDF Pages: 40 Publisher: Koncept Analytics Compound fertilizers typically contain a minimum of two primary nutrients which are obtained by chemical reaction, blending or a combination of both. The basic fertilizer materials used for the manufacturing of NPK fertilizers include ammonia, ammonium phosphate, urea, sulphur and potassium salts. There has been a notable surge in the demand for compound fertilizers in the past few years, mainly as a result of deteriorating soil fertility and increasing demand for organic/green food. Asia accounts for the majority portion of the global NPK capacity with China as the leading regional market. The other main markets include Western Europe, Eurasia and Central Europe. The demand for compound fertilizer has been particularly influenced by several interrelated and changing factors like population, economic growth, agricultural production, prices and government policies. Industry experts opine that increasing income, urbanization and shifting consumer preferences have collectively altered dietary patterns, particularly in the developing countries. Therefore, improvement of the grain yield has been highly important to meet the rising food demand which is growing as a result of the growing global population. Meanwhile, the improved grain yield will have a positive impact on the market for compound fertilizers. The shifting patter of demand of compound fertilizers is also attributed to the rising environmental concerns. The recent past witnessed farmers placing higher requirements on compound fertilizers for the cultivation of high-end cash crops. Moreover, increasing energy prices have highly supported the usage of biofuels such as bio-ethanol (made from sugar or corn) and biodiesel (made from oilseeds) which require major cereals as inputs, and will further increase demand for compound fertilizers. Among the various companies engaged in the production of NPK fertilizers, Yara is the undisputable market leader. The other major players include Acron, SACF and BASF.The current report covers the overview, market size and segmentation of the global compound fertilizers market. The various drivers and the challenges faced by the market are also discussed in detail. The competitive aspect of the market is also highlighted and the key players are profiled with their strategies for this market.

Global Crop Protection (Pesticides) Market: Opportunities and Challenges Price: $900.00 (€709.33) ($1,080.00 (€851.19) Including VAT at 20%) Publication Date: 01-Jan-2009 Format: PDF Email Pages: 45 Publisher: Koncept Analytics At a time of rising food prices, population growth and concerns over global food security, there is a growing need for using every available technology - including plant protection products, to meet future food needs and tackle the emerging challenges of climate change and resource conservation. Plant protection products, also called pesticides, are chemical or biological substances used to control pests that harm food, health or environment. There are mainly three types of pesticides: they are herbicide, insecticide and fungicide. As compared to 2006, the crop protection recorded increasing demand in 2007, on account of increasing demand for food, energy and feed plants coupled with declining inventories. Increased demand and calorie intake in emerging markets also helped accelerate the industry’s growth. Geographically, in terms of sale Europe accounts for the largest share of the market, followed by Asia Pacific and the NAFTA region. Among the three types of agrochemicals, herbicide accounts for the largest market share globally, followed by insecticide and fungicides. Although, the crop protection market has been recording growth over the years due to increasing per capita consumption, migration to urban areas and decreasing cultivable land, in the coming years, the industry is expected to be riddled by the new EU and FAO regulations. Already, in countries such as Germany and France, many companies are facing restrictions regarding the usage of their products. In addition to the regulations, banning of many active ingredients globally and increased research and development measures are expected to adversely impact the industry. Apart from the registration and regulation problem, the industry is also facing the problem of piracy and counterfeit products. These issues are expected to affect the revenue generation of the industry in the coming years. On the whole, the report analyzes the various markets of the crop protection industry and assesses market opportunities available for the players. The growth drivers and challenges for the industry have also been analyzed. The report focuses on the growth of this industry in the different regions of the world and individual markets, such as the US and China among others. Further, the report highlights the strategies of top global agrochemical companies – Bayer, Syngenta, BASF, Dow and Monsanto. Table of Contents/List of Tables/List of Figures
