Market Trends of Asia-Pacific Agricultural Disinfectants Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the APAC Agricultural Disinfectants Market according to our research experts:
Growing Area Under Protected Cultivation
Various systems of protected cultivation, such as indoor farming, vertical farming, hydroponics, etc., also reduce biotic stresses on crops, such as attacks by pests and pathogens. Taking advantage of this fact, protected cultivation has provided benefits such as crops with little or no pesticide residues. While the susceptibility of crops attacked by pathogens is minimal in protected cultivation, maintenance of the protected cultivation facility to be free from pathogens borne from both the construction material as well as equipment has become a necessity. This is to have 100% pest and pathogen control. Disinfectants have an important role to play in sanitizing the protected cultivation facilities and equipment in the pre-planting stage to enable the crop to be free of pests and pathogens in its growth stage. The increased area under protected cultivation globally is expected to influence the positive growth of the market for agricultural disinfectants
Liquid Disinfectants Dominates the Market
The liquid disinfectant segment is anticipated to dominate the market as they are highly effective against different types of virulent compounds. Additionally, liquid disinfectants include a wide range of applications including footbaths, foot dips, foam-based sprays, aerial disinfection, and water-system disinfection procedures.
The liquid disinfectants help in curbing the diseases by controlling the spread of pathogens, which thereby leads to the rise in the demand of liquid animal disinfectants, globally. For instance, in intensive modern housing where high density and high productivity increases the infection pressure, Thorough cleaning and adapted disinfection decrease the pathogen level and prevent or break the disease cycle which further escalates the need for liquid animal disinfectants thereby adding to the revenues of the same in the forecast period. There are numerous products catering to the liquid animal disinfectants category in the global market. Some of them are Rescue (Virox Animal Health), Fuzion Cleaner Disinfectant (The Clorox Company), Vetacide (Animal Health Direct Limited), and others.
