Detailed Segmentation of Controlled-release Fertilizers Market

• Type- On the basis of type, the market is categorized into N-stabilizers, coated & encapsulated, and slow-release. Among these, the coated and encapsulated fertilizer segment emerged dominant on account of their broad availability and wide adoption throughout developing and developed nations. Utilizing a variety of synthetic and organic polymer coating for encapsulated fertilizers is a significant method of promoting the healthy growth of the plant and boosting the nutrient uptake in them. Moreover, the increasing research activities on the production of cost-efficient and biodegradable coating polymers for fertilizers are likely to help attract high delayed-release fertilizers market revenue in the forecast period.


• Application –  Based on application, the market is segmented into fruits & vegetables, oilseeds & pulses, cereals, and others. The others segment includes plantation crops, ornamentals, and turf. As per CRF fertilizer market analysis, the others segment is likely to emerge as the leading segment since these fertilizers release nutrients to the plant within a time span of 3 to 24 months, thus graduating towards a slow growth process. On the other side, the fruits and vegetable segment is likely to witness the fastest growth on account of the rise in concern over food security and increasing demand for smart and efficient fertilizers.


• Region – In terms of geographical segmentation, the global controlled-release fertilizer market is widespread into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, South America, and the Middle East and Africa. Each of these regions is further sub-classified into nations. Among these, North America held the largest CRF fertilizer market share owing to the high use of these fertilizers from the horticultural sector in nations such as Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. On the other side, Asia Pacific is likely to emerge as the fastest-growing region with a CAGR of 7.1% between 2019 and 2026. This is attributable to the rise in population in Asian nations especially India and China, ultimately adding a boost to the demand for food in the region.
