The agricultural coatings market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.83 billion in 2023 to $4.2 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including an increased demand for crop protection measures, compliance with regulatory standards, efforts to enhance productivity, global agricultural trends, and the expansion of the market.
The agricultural coatings market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.83 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the adoption of sustainable agriculture practices, efforts to adapt to climate change, the increasing use of bio-based and organic coatings, global population growth, and ongoing market innovation and research. Key trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in formulations and technologies, a shift towards sustainable and eco-friendly solutions, the integration of precision agriculture, the adoption of smart coatings and IoT (Internet of Things) integration, and customization to cater to various agricultural applications.
The anticipated increase in food demand is poised to propel the growth of the agricultural coatings market in the coming years. Food, essential for proper growth and nutrition in organisms, has witnessed a surge in demand globally. Agricultural coatings play a crucial role in ensuring food safety by providing chemical resistance, preventing the transmission of potentially harmful chemicals through food products when machinery passes through them. As highlighted in a July 2022 article by the Food and Agriculture Organization, approximately 828 million people worldwide were affected by hunger in 2021, marking an increase of 46 million people compared to 2020. Additionally, a report from the World Food Programme, published in February 2022, projected that 345.2 million people would be food insecure in 2023, doubling compared to 2020 and representing an increase of 200 million people compared to pre-pandemic levels. This dire situation underscores the global food crisis, and the increasing demand for food is a significant driver for the growth of the agricultural coatings market.
The surge in the adoption of precision farming is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the agricultural coatings market. Precision farming involves the monitoring, analysis, and reaction to various inter- and intra-field variable inputs in modern agriculture. Agricultural coatings play a vital role in precision farming practices by reducing pesticide usage and enhancing functionality. According to the USDA, 25% of farms used precision agriculture practices in 2021, a figure that increased to 27% in 2022. The growing adoption of precision farming is a key factor driving the demand for agricultural coatings as farmers seek more efficient and sustainable agricultural practices. This trend is expected to further fuel the growth of the agricultural coatings market.
Technological advancements are a pivotal trend in the agricultural coatings market, with major players actively pursuing the development and integration of new technologies to enhance their market position. A notable example is the initiative taken by Germains Seed Technology, a UK-based provider of seed technology solutions. In March 2022, Germains Seed Technology introduced Spinach Goseed, a cutting-edge nutrient-rich coating technology and bio-stimulant specifically designed for spinach. This technology aims to enable plants to more effectively handle abiotic stress during their emergence and early growth stages. Spinach Goseed, with a focus on enhancing early plant nutrition, has demonstrated impressive results in trials, producing an average of 21% more final yields, 30% better plant stand, and 31% better emergence. By incorporating carefully selected nutrients with bio-stimulants and other micro-ingredients, this technology represents the next generation of seed health solutions, providing more natural and effective plant support.
Major companies in the agricultural coatings market are also emphasizing the development of sustainable products, including plant-based edible coatings designed to enhance produce freshness. A plant-based edible coating is a thin layer of natural, edible materials derived from plants applied to the surface of food items. AgroFresh Solutions, a US-based producer of freshness solutions, exemplifies this trend with the launch of VitaFresh Botanicals, Life Ultra, in April 2021. This plant-based edible coating, tailored for fruits such as avocados and mangoes, utilizes nano-emulsion technology from Brazilian collaborators. Acting as a protective membrane, Life Ultra reduces dehydration, minimizes food loss, and offers sustainability benefits by enabling quick fruit drying, thus lowering energy usage and operational costs.
In August 2022, Kansai Helios, a Germany-based paint and coatings manufacturer, acquired Wefa, a Germany-based agricultural coatings manufacturer. This acquisition not only brings Kansai Helios Wefa's expertise in water-based coatings but also provides opportunities for business expansion and new product development.
