北美控制釋放肥料市場趨勢

補貼和其他政府財政支持有助於擴大田間作物

• 北美的農場種植多種作物，以田間作物為主。玉米、棉花、水稻、大豆和小麥是該地區的主要田間作物。美國、加拿大和墨西哥對該地區的農業生產貢獻巨大。 2022 年，田間作物約佔北美總種植面積的 97.6%，其中穀物和油籽佔據市場主導地位。
• 從國家來看，美國佔據市場主導地位，研究期間的作物總種植面積為 1.357 億公頃。其中，大田作物和園藝佔了大部分面積，2022年分別佔97.2%和2.8%。然而，2018年至2019年間，該國作物面積大幅下降，主要原因是不利的環境條件導致德克薩斯和休士頓等地區發生嚴重洪澇災害。
• 最大的栽培作物是玉米，大部分種植在美國中西部傳統上被稱為「玉米帶」的地區，該地區涵蓋印第安納州西部、伊利諾伊州、愛荷華州、密蘇裡州、內布拉斯加州東部和堪薩斯州東部的大部分地區，玉米和大豆是主要作物。該地區也是米的主要出口區，水稻種植主要集中在四個地區：因此，隨著該地區田間作物市場潛力的增加以及政府資金投入和保護的增加，該地區田間作物種植面積預計會增加。

在主要營養元素中，氮肥在田間作物中的應用更為頻繁。

• 水稻、玉米、小麥和油菜籽等田間作物是該地區主要的作物消耗作物。 2022 年，水稻將消耗約 140.85 公斤/公頃的主要養分，其次是油菜籽/油菜籽，消耗 118.40 公斤/公頃的主要養分。預計穀物將消耗最多的氮肥。由於該地區的集約化耕作，土壤養分耗盡，需要大量肥料來補充生長。
• 主要養分中，氮肥施用量最大，2022年約佔74.0%，相當於田間作物229.8公斤/公頃。然而，氮缺乏是該地區最常見的作物營養問題之一。因此，大部分的氮供應是透過土壤施用提供。當施入土壤時，氮會轉化為礦物質硝酸鹽，以便植物輕鬆吸收。油菜籽是一種主要的氮消耗作物，在美國廣泛種植。
• 油菜籽可用於提取潤滑油、液壓油和塑膠等工業用油。施肥率取決於土壤品質和降雨量，但氮需求量為每英畝 100 至 150 磅。磷肥和鉀肥的施用量也因土壤而異。然而，根據 AgMRC 的建議施用量為每英畝 0-80 磅和每英畝 0-140 磅。
• 由於初級養分是各種作物養分的主要來源，由於土壤貧化和淋溶，其施用量預計將逐年大幅增加。

Initiatives toward achieving right amount of nutrients at the right time will increase the CRFs adoption in the region

• Between 2017 and 2022, the North American controlled-release fertilizers market witnessed a CAGR of 15.0%. Precision farming, a widely embraced approach in the region, prioritizes timely and precise nutrient delivery to crops. Controlled-release fertilizers, in this context, assume a pivotal role, ensuring crops receive optimal nutrient dosages, thus becoming integral to precision farming.
• In 2022, field crops dominated the North American controlled-release fertilizers market, capturing 88.4% of the market share. Horticultural crops accounted for 3.7%. Controlled-release fertilizers found extensive usage in high-value crops like cereals, grains, vegetables, orchards, and nurseries. While specialty chemical adoption in row crops is not yet widespread, it is gradually rising due to surging grain prices, heightened environmental concerns, and stricter nutrient application regulations.
• In 2022, the United States led the consumption of controlled-release fertilizers, accounting for 69.9%. This dominance can be attributed to the nation's regulations governing nutrient application rates and fertilizer pollution control.
• Recognizing the technological strides in the fertilizer industry, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) have collaborated with key stakeholders like The Fertilizer Institute (TFI), the International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC), The Nature Conservancy (TNC), and the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA). Their collective aim is to raise awareness about controlled-release fertilizers among farmers, with a positive ripple effect anticipated on the country's field crop production.

Environmental concerns about excessive use of fertilizers and reduced nitrogen use by major crops may drive the CRF market

• In 2022, the United States recorded a 69.9% share of the CRF market. The market grew by a CAGR of 14.0% during the study period. Polymer coating emerged as the leader, commanding a 76.4% share in 2022. Around 69% of the US cropland is dedicated to field crops, including barley, corn, cotton, oats, peanuts, sorghum, soybeans, and wheat. Given the high nitrogen requirements of these crops, the adoption of polymer-coated urea, known for its nitrogen efficiency, is on the rise, further bolstering the market share of polymer-coated fertilizers.
• Canada is witnessing a surge in the cultivation of field crops like wheat, canola, and maize. To support this trend, the Canadian government, through initiatives like Farm Credit Canada, is facilitating increased credit accessibility for farmers, specifically for inputs like controlled-release fertilizers. This favorable environment is poised to propel the controlled-release fertilizer market in Canada in the coming years.
• In 2021, the Mexican legislature approved a USD 2.70 billion budget for the Secretariat of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER) in its 2022 Federal Government Budget. Around 70% of this allocation was earmarked for fertilizer subsidies. This is expected to be a key driver for the controlled-release fertilizer market in Mexico.
• The Rest of North America is witnessing a surge in the adoption of controlled-release fertilizers driven by the push for precision agriculture practices and climate-smart initiatives. These measures address environmental concerns and promote sustainable farming practices.
• Across the region, the imperative to boost field crop production, coupled with robust government initiatives and growing farmer awareness, sets the stage for a promising market outlook in the coming years.

North America Controlled Release Fertilizer Market Trends

The financial support by the government such as subsidies has contributed to the expansion of field crops

• A wide array of crops are grown on North American farms, mainly covering field crops. Corn, Cotton, Rice, Soybean, and Wheat are some of the dominating field crops across the region. The United States, Canada, and Mexico are major contributors to the region's agricultural output. In 2022, field crops covered around 97.6% of the overall cultivation in North America, with cereals and oilseeds dominating the market.
• By country, the United States dominates the market, covering 135.7 million hectares of the overall area under crop cultivation during the study period. Among them, field crops and horticulture are covering the majority of the area and accounted for 97.2% and 2.8% in 2022. However, between 2018-2019, the country witnessed a significant dip in crop acreages which is majorly due to unfavorable environmental conditions resulting in heavy floods in areas like Texas and Houston.
• The largest crop cultivated is corn, the majority of which is grown in a region known as the 'Corn Belt' traditional area in the midwestern United States, roughly covering western Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, eastern Nebraska, and eastern Kansas, in which corn (maize) and soybeans are the dominant crops. Also, It is the major rice exporter, and the rice cultivation in the region is mainly concentrated within 4 regions with three in the South and one in California. Therefore, the increased market potential for the region's field crop, coupled with the increased government funding and protection is anticipated to positively drive the area under field crop cultivation in the region.

Among all the primary nutrients, nitrogen is applied in a higher quantity for field crops

• Field crops, such as rice, corn/maize, wheat, and rapeseed/canola, are some of the major primary nutrient-consuming crops in the region. In 2022, about 140.85 kg/hectare of primary nutrients were consumed by rice, followed by 118.40 kg/hectare consumed by rapeseed/canola. Cereals are anticipated to consume the maximum amount of nitrogen fertilizer. As they are grown intensively in the region, they deplete the nutrients in the soil and require more fertilizers to supplement growth.
• Among all the primary nutrients, nitrogen is applied in a higher quantity, accounting for about 74.0% in 2022, equivalent to 229.8 kg/hectare for field crops. Nitrogen deficiency, however, is one of the most prevalent crop nutrient problems in the region. Hence, most of the nitrogen supplement is provided through soil application. When applied to the soil, nitrogen is converted to mineral nitrate for the plants to absorb easily. Rapeseed, the major nitrogen-consuming crop, is widely grown in the United States.
• Rapeseed is used for extracting oil for industrial applications, like lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and plastics. While fertilizer usage is based on soil quality and rainfall potential, its nitrogen requirements range from 100 to 150 lbs/acre. Phosphorus and potassium fertility rates also vary from soil to soil. However, the recommended rates range from 0 to 80 lbs/acre and 0 to 140 lbs/acre, as per the AgMRC.
• Since primary nutrients are the major sources of nutrients for various crops, their application rates are anticipated to grow significantly over the years due to soil depletion, leaching, etc.
