Global Copper Fungicides Market By Farming Type (Conventional Farming, Organic farming), By application (Grains, fruits, Vegetables), By Region and Key Companies - Industry Segment Outlook, Market Assessment, Competition Scenario, Trends and Forecast 2022–2031

Market.us announces the publication of its most recently generated research report titled, “Global Copper Fungicides Market by farming type (Conventional Farming, Organic farming), By Application (Grains, fruits, vegetables, and other applications) and by Region – Global Forecast to 2031.”, Which offers a holistic view of the global copper fungicides market through systematic segmentation that covers every aspect of the target market.

Copper fungicides contain copper. These are plant protection chemicals used to control fungal infections in crops. The growing popularity of fungal diseases and organic farming can explain the growth in the copper fungicides industry. Organic farming has seen an increase in popularity over the past decade due to growing awareness about the harmful effects of chemicals on the environment and increasing demand for organic foods.

Organic farming is becoming more popular, and so is the need for organic inputs. Organic farming is a popular use of copper fungicides. Organic farming allows these fungicides in the recommended dosages to reduce crop losses and leave little to no chemical residue. The forecast period will see an increase in organic farming, which is expected to boost copper fungicide demand.

The global copper fungicides market is projected to be US$ 1,181.0 Mn in 2022 to reach US$ 1,905.4 Mn by 2032 at a CAGR of 4.9%.

Fungicides are biological organisms or biocidal chemical compounds used to kill parasitic fungi or their spores. A fungicide inhibits the growth of fungi. Fungi can cause severe damage in agriculture, resulting in critical losses of yield, quality, and profit. Copper(Cu) is used for plant protection in agriculture for more than 150 years. Copper Fungicides are used in all major plant crops, important for nutritional, economic, and social aspects globally. Copper fungicides have a low risk of developing resistant fungal strains due to the multilateral mode of action. This property is the reason they have great value in ant-resistant strategy in the suppression of important fungal diseases. Copper product has a great role as plant protection products in organic farming hence they are included in all manuals for Technological support for organic farming, which are published by the Ministry of agriculture, forestry, and food.

Today’s copper fungicides are more active, which reduces the amount of copper applied to crops and soil. Soluble solutions, like copper sulfate pentahydrate, which have copper ions are significantly effective at fractional rates. Solutions insoluble, such as oxychlorides and hydroxides, release copper ions over some time and are hence not immediately available.

The demand for copper fungicide has increased in recent years. The major factor that affects the consumption of copper fungicide is the increased demand for food cultivation. The growing number of fungal diseases affecting the crop is another factor that helps the growth of the copper fungicide market.

Global Copper Fungicides Market Revenue (US$ Mn), 2018–2028 

The growing demand for food and shrinking land is one of the driving factors of copper fungicide growth. According to a report by the UN, the estimated world population will reach around 8.5 billion by 2030 thus increasing the demand for food supply.

Increasing awareness of potential crop production loss due to the non-usage of crop protection chemicals will help the market for copper fungicides to grow in the future.

However, the high research costs associated with the development of a new chemical molecule will restrain market growth. It takes around nine years to develop a new molecule. Nonetheless, the majority of copper fungicide products going off-patent would unleash a great opportunity. It is estimated that around USD 3 billion worth of crop protection chemicals to go off-patent by 2020.

The global copper fungicides market is segmented on the basis of the farming type, application, and region. On the basis of farming type, the market is segmented into conventional farming and organic farming. The organic farming segment accounts for the majority share in the global copper fungicides market, while conventional farming is expected to register a steady growth rate over the forecast period. On the basis of application, the market is segmented into grains, fruits, vegetables, and other applications. Fruits account for a majority share of the global copper fungicides market.

Global Copper Fungicides Market by application, 2018

On the basis of region, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, the Middle East, Africa, and the rest of the world. The Europe region accounts for the majority share in the global copper fungicides market due to an increasing trend toward horticulture will help in the growth of the copper fungicide industry, followed by North America. Emerging economies such as APAC are expected to register the highest growth rate over the forecast period.

The research report on the global copper fungicides market includes profiles of some of the major companies such as MAT Holdings S.L., Nufarm Limited, Adama Agricultural Solutions Limited, UPL Limited, Nordox AS, Albaugh LLC, Bayer Aktiengesellschaft, Zhejiang Hisun Group Co. Ltd. And Mitsui & Co., Ltd.

Copper oxychloride can be used in agriculture to control fungi and is also used in the production of crop protection chemicals. It is an effective fungicide that can be used on crops like tomatoes, potatoes, stone fruits, celery, and grapes as well as citrus, citrus, carnation, coffee, and avocados.

It is expected that it will continue to be the dominant segment throughout the forecast period. Copper oxychloride can be sprayed onto crops to promote healthy growth and prevent disease or infection. It is used as a coloring agent in wall paintings, manuscripts, and illuminations. Copper oxychloride can also be used in the production of commercial feed supplements. It can be found in feed formulations for all animal species, including turkeys, chickens, and dairy cattle. In the production of pyrotechnics, copper oxychloride can be used as a green or blue color agent. It can be used to catalyze many reactions, such as the production of vinyl chloride. Copper oxychloride can also be used as a catalyst in organic synthesis reactions.
