北美特種肥料市場趨勢

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。大田作物和園藝佔種植面積的大部分，2022年的比例分別為97.2%和2.8%。然而，在2018-2019年，惡劣的環境條件導致德克薩斯和休士頓等地區發生嚴重洪災，導致作物種植面積大幅減少。
• 傳統上，該區是美國中西部的一個地區，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。它也是米的主要出口國，該地區的水稻種植主要集中在四個主要地區。該地區田間作物的市場潛力不斷增加，加上政府資金投入和保護力度加大，預計將增加該地區田間作物的種植面積。

在主要養分中，氮肥是田間作物施用量較大的肥料，相當於每公頃229.8公斤。

• 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，消耗量為118.40公斤/公頃。預計穀物作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。
• 在主要養分中，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。

• Liquid fertilizers secured the second-largest market share at 45.9% in 2022. Given the acidic nature of arable lands in the region, there's a growing preference for liquid-based specialty fertilizers like ammonium nitrate. These fertilizers not only help maintain soil pH levels but also address concerns about nitrogen leaching, a key issue for both environmentalists and farmers.
• Controlled-release fertilizers, with a modest 4.9% market share, play a pivotal role in precision farming. By ensuring crops receive precise nutrient dosages, they have become indispensable in modern agriculture.
• In 2022, the US accounted for a significant chunk, 67.1%, of the North American specialty fertilizer market. Water-soluble and liquid fertilizers were the dominant segments in the US market. Likewise, the study period revealed a strong preference for foliar and fertigation modes in the US, a trend attributed to the country's well-established irrigation infrastructure.
• With a well-developed irrigation system and growing demand for field crops, turfs, and ornamentals, the specialty fertilizer market in the US is poised for growth in the coming years.

The United States dominates the market due to well-developed agricultural systems and larger cultivation area across the country

• In 2022, the United States held a dominant position in the North American specialty fertilizers market. Water-soluble fertilizers, liquid fertilizers, and CRF accounted for 48.0%, 46.3%, and 5.1% of the market share, respectively. Slow-release fertilizers had a smaller share of 0.6%, primarily due to limited adoption in major crops like wheat, maize, and cereals. However, the segment's growth is expected to be bolstered by the country's developing micro-irrigation system. In 2022, the total irrigated cropland in the US spanned 18.3 million hectares.
• In North America, Canada has the second-largest specialty fertilizer market, followed by the United States. During 2023-2030, the country's specialty fertilizer market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.4%.
• Mexico held a 16.0% share of the North American specialty fertilizers market in 2022. Notably, Mexico's field crops saw a volume of 2.2 million metric tons in 2022, with an expected rise to 2.8 million metric tons by 2030.
• Specialty fertilizers experienced a notable decline in both value and volume in 2019 and 2020, primarily due to disruptions in the supply chain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the market rebounded in 2021, driven by rising raw material prices and increased demand.
• The growing adoption of precision technologies is expected to drive the demand for specialty fertilizers. Precision farming, which emphasizes optimal fertilizer application, aligns well with the characteristics of specialty fertilizers like controlled-release and slow-release variants. As a result, the North American specialty fertilizers market is projected to register a CAGR of 5.6% during 2023-2030.

North America Specialty Fertilizer Market Trends

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. Field crops and horticulture covered the majority of the area and accounted for shares of 97.2% and 2.8% in 2022. However, between 2018 and 2019, the country witnessed a significant dip in crop acreages 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,' It is a 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 rice cultivation in the region is mainly concentrated within four regions, with three in the South and one in California. The increased market potential for the region's field crops, coupled with 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 to field crops, which is equivalent to 229.8 kg/hectare

• 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-based fertilizers. 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.
