The Global Biofertilizers Market-valued at USD 2.97 billion in 2024-is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.40%, reaching USD 5.38 billion by 2030. Biofertilizers are microbial products containing living organisms that improve soil fertility and stimulate plant growth by enhancing nutrient availability. Market growth is primarily fueled by rising environmental concerns linked to synthetic fertilizers, increasing consumer demand for organic foods, and the broader shift toward sustainable agriculture.

Key Market Drivers
Growing Adoption of Organic and Sustainable Farming
Consumer preference for chemical-free, eco-friendly food products is reshaping agricultural practices worldwide. Farmers are increasingly adopting sustainable methods that prioritize environmental health, pushing demand for biological inputs like biofertilizers. Compliance with organic certification standards further reinforces this trend. As reported in the Soil Association's Organic Market Report 2024, the UK organic sector grew by 2% in 2023, reaching £3.2 billion, signaling sustained interest in organic produce and heightening the need for compatible biofertilizer solutions.
Key Market Challenges
The limited stability of microbial formulations remains a major obstacle. Biofertilizers often require controlled storage conditions-sometimes including cold-chain facilities-to preserve microbial viability. These requirements complicate logistics and increase handling costs, particularly in regions with underdeveloped infrastructure. As a result, farmers may face risks of reduced product effectiveness if storage protocols are not properly maintained.
Such complications hinder the broader expansion of sustainable farming. According to Soil Association Certification, the total organic land area in the UK declined by 2.1% in 2023, reflecting broader challenges in managing specialized inputs such as biofertilizers that require careful storage and handling.
Key Market Trends
Advancements in Microbial Consortia
A major trend shaping the market is the development of next-generation microbial consortia-precisely engineered combinations of microorganisms designed to improve product performance, stability, and adaptability across various environments. Notably, in July 2024, Syngenta Biologicals and Intrinsyx Bio introduced innovative endophyte-based formulations capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen directly within plants, reducing dependence on synthetic fertilizers. This rising technological sophistication is mirrored by increased market participation, with 54% of ag retailers offering biological products in 2025, up 13% from 2024, according to a CropLife survey.
