Glyphosate Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Crop Type (Genetically Modified Crops, Conventional Crops), By Form (Dry, Liquid), By Application (Agriculture, Non- Agriculture) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Glyphosate is a derivative of amino acid glycine and has low toxicity content. It is an organophosphorus compound and a harvest desiccant that provides negligible herbicidal activity in the soil and is used for crop production and foliar spray applications. It is used to prevent the growth of fungi and destroy grasses and broadleaf weeds that strive with crops. Additionally, glyphosate aids in stimulating plant growth & supports the growth of certain crops such as corn, soybean, berry, canola, cotton, and crops. Further, availablity of glyphosate in various formulation such as solid form, liquid concentrate, and ready-to-use liquid, will fuel the product adoption.

The increasing glyphosate usage in soil enhancement is likely to propel the growth of the glyphosate market. The growth is attributed to the rising preference of glyphosate to protect fertility, water quality, and soil erosion. Also, its benefits over the mechanical tillage system including less soil & environment degradation and low cost will further support the glyphosate market expansion. Moreover, rising demand for glyphosate in the agriculture sector, owing to its use to prevent the growth of unwanted broadleaf weed and enhance agricultural production will drive the market during the forecast period.

However, overdosage of glyphosate can cause several severe health issues to humans such as birth defects, liver disease, and reproductive problems in laboratory animals. Further, many controversies related to genetically engineered crops, is anticipated to restrain the market growth.
