Market Scenario
Biostimulant is a diverse formulation of compounds, substances and micro-organisms used to improve crop yield, quality and tolerance of abiotic stresses. They can be applied either to plant or soil to foster plant growth and development throughout the crop life cycle from seed germination to plant maturity.
Biostimulants enhance soil fertility, particularly by fostering the development of complementary soil micro-organisms. Moreover, they are used to restore degraded soils by regulating soil pH and help in soil management. Inclination towards organic products among the rising population owing to negative side effects from chemical fertilizers will surge the market growth over the forecasted period 2017-2023. Globally the market for biostimulants is estimated to grow at the rate of about 10.92% from 2017 to 2023
