Global Sulfur Fertilizers Market is valued approximately USD 4.5 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 2.2% over the forecast period 2020-2027. Sulfur fertilizers is an essential plant nutrient required by all crops for optimum production. Sulfur fertilizers helps in the formation of chlorophyll that permits photosynthesis through which plants produce starch, sugars, oils, fats, vitamins, and other compounds. These fertilizers are useful in the activation of enzymes, which aid in biochemical reactions in the plant as well as helps in synthesis in oil. The global sulfur fertilizer market is facing challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic as temporary lockdown in various countries. But the government introduced plans and initiatives to ensure that soil nutrients are available to farmers during the upcoming rabi (summer-sown) season, amid the COVID-19 outbreak. For instance, tThe Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers of India has constituted a team to prepare a road map in order to reforms and achieve higher growth in the fertilizer sector. The increase in sulfur deficiency in soils, increase in preference for high-quality crops, strict regulations on sulfur emission regulations increases the demand for added sulfur and high consumption of traditional sulfate fertilizers are the few factors responsible for growth of the market over the forecast period. Furthermore, introduction of innovative products and other strategic alliance by the market players will create a lucrative demand for the market. For instance, in March 2020, US based Mosaic Company has announced an agreement with the Financial Technology Research Centre (FTRC) to focus on enhancement of fertilizer efficiency in Australia. However, growing trend of consuming organic fertilizers to reduce the demand for sulfur fertilizers is the major factor restraining the growth of global Sulfur Fertilizers market during the forecast period.
