Organic fertilizers are derived from organic compounds, which include human waste, animal waste, or vegetable matter (usually rotten or non-consumable by humans) and serve as an ideal source of primary nutrients for plants. These fertilizers are considered as soil refiners, as they improve the macro & microelement contents in the soil, increase the organic & humus content in the soil, and restore the physical–chemical characteristics of the soil. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, organic fertilizers do not destroy the microorganisms present in the soil, thereby enhancing its fertility. Furthermore, they reduce the risk of environmental damage, as they are extracted from naturally occurring substances. Prominent organic fertilizers available in the market include blood meal, bone meal, composites, earthworm castings, bat guano, fish emulsion, alfalfa meal, feather meal, and rock phosphate. Selection of organic fertilizers is done after determining the nutrients required by the crop.
Government support coupled with increase in awareness toward the use of organic fertilizers drive the growth of the European organic fertilizer market. Furthermore, implementation of stringent regulations by the governing bodies on the use of synthetic fertilizers and harmful effects caused by prolonged use of chemical fertilizers fuel the adoption of organic fertilizers. However, ongoing R&D activities on synthetic fertilizers and lower nutrient content of organic fertilizers as compared to synthetic fertilizers restrict the market growth. On the contrary, upsurge in demand for organic food in the European region is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the market growth.

Executive Summary
According to a new report titled, Europe Organic Fertilizer Market by Source, Crop Type, Form, and Country: Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2017-2023, the Europe organic fertilizer market was valued at $2,451 million in 2016, and is projected to reach at $3,260 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2017 to 2023.Fertilizers that are derived from an organic source such as flora, fauna, and naturally occurring minerals are organic fertilizers. Alfalfa meal, corn gluten meal, cottonseed meal, kelp/seaweed, soybean meal, and humus are the common plant sources, whereas the animal sources include fish extracts, manure, and compost. Organic fertilizers offer several advantages over inorganic fertilizers. The former does not have acid content that has adverse effect on the environment and human health. In addition, organic fertilizers help improve the structure of the soil and increase its water & nutrient holding capacity.
Increased awareness regarding the benefits of organic fertilizers majorly fuels the growth of the Europe organic fertilizer market. Also, the strict guidelines by the governing bodies on the usage of inorganic fertilizers augments the demand for organic fertilizers. However, continuous R&D activities on inorganic fertilizers restrict the market growth. Nevertheless, the upsurge in demand for organic products offers numerous growth opportunity for the market.
Based on source, the market for Europe organic fertilizer is divided into plant, animal, and mineral. The mineral-based source for organic fertilizer is projected to be the highest growing segment during the forecast period.
