The global agricultural disinfectants market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of nearly 4.0% during the forecast period. Increasing livestock farming and rising awareness regarding animal health has led to the demand for agricultural disinfectants. As per the Eurostat, in EU-28, there were 5.7 million agricultural holdings (farms) with livestock in 2016 than the total 10.5 million farms. This represents that nearly 54.8% of EU farms were keeping livestock. Increasing animal production coupled with the rising demand for meat is the major factor for significant focus on livestock farming across regions. The EU countries have a substantial livestock population, which accounted for 98 million sheep and goats, 148 million pigs, and 87 million bovine animals in 2018.
In 2018, 7.9 million tons of bovine meat (beef and veal) was produced by the EU in 2018, moderate growth of 1.7% over 2017. With the growing livestock population, the increasing prevalence of livestock diseases has been witnessed across the countries. Lack of hygiene is one of the factors for the rising livestock diseases. As a result, the livestock producers are focusing on animal health by vaccination and hygiene measures which support to mitigate the effects of livestock diseases. Preventative biosecurity has been gaining significance in livestock agriculture as a result of the recent disease outbreaks. The use of farm biosecurity facilitates eliminating pathogenic organisms from the farm settings and serves to protect livestock and the human food supply.
Good farm hygiene practices along with cleaners and disinfectants enable to control the transmission of pathogens which acts a cost-effective and potential preventative tool for management and prevention of infectious diseases in farm animals. Under the Biosecurity Program, the use of disinfectants is crucial to eradicate disease-causing pathogens in livestock farms and prevent re-infection on animals. In livestock farms, disinfectants are used in drinking water, on surface, and yards which allows to prevent the attack of harmful diseases. Regular manure removal and frequent cleanliness lead to a better health outcome of the livestock population. This, in turn, is leading to the increasing demand for disinfectants in livestock farming.
Market Segmentation
The global agricultural disinfectants market is segmented into application, type, end-user, and form. Based on application, the market is classified into the surface, water sanitizing, and aerial. Based on type, the market is classified into quaternary ammonium compounds & phenols, hypochlorites & hallogens, oxidizing agents & aldehydes, and others. Based on end-user, the market is classified into livestock farms and agricultural farms. Based on form, the market is classified into liquid, powder, and others.
Surface disinfectants held the largest share in the application segment
In 2019, surface disinfectants accounted for the largest share in the application segment owing to its considerable application in livestock farms and agricultural farms. Fresh from the field, fruits and vegetables have a significant risk of contamination with all kinds of microbes including mould, bacteria, fungi spores, and yeasts. If the microbial contamination is successfully decreased earlier storage commences, the losses resulted due to rot and mould can be cut substantially while increases storage periods enormously. Regular cleaning and disinfecting the surfaces of storage rooms, containers, machines and so on through an agricultural disinfectant enables to protect contamination of freshly harvested agricultural products. This widens the storage life and storage periods. Additionally, in livestock farming, there is an increased need for surface cleaning to remove manure from the field and afterwards surface disinfectants are used to kill harmful pathogens in the area.

Regional Outlook
Geographically, the global agricultural disinfectants market is segmented into four major regions, including North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World. Asia-Pacific is anticipated to hold a considerable share in the market owing to the increasing livestock population and significant focus on animal disease management. As per the National Dairy Development Board, in India, the total livestock population increased from 512.1 million in 2012 to 535.8 million in 2019. Increasing dairy farming is the major factor in the increasing focus on livestock farming in the country. As per the National Institute of Veterinary Epidemiology and Disease Informatics (NIVEDI), during 2016-2017, among screened livestock species in India, high prevalence of diseases in livestock animals was reported in pig (40.19%), followed by sheep (20.82%), cattle (2.73%) goat (2.18%) and buffalo (1.11%). This results in the emerging focus of the country’s livestock farmers towards regular cleaning and disinfecting of livestock sites that supports to prevent such kinds of infections in animals.

Market Players Outlook
The major players in the market include LANXESS AG, Nufarm Ltd., Neogen Corp., Stepan Co., and Laboratoire M2. The strategies adopted by the market players include mergers and acquisitions, product launches, and partnerships and collaborations to expand market share and gain a competitive advantage. Due to the rising incidences of livestock diseases, the companies are focusing on launching new disinfectants for protection against harmful viruses. For instance, in May 2020, LANXESS submitted their premium livestock animal disinfectants, Virkon LSP and Virkon S, for independent evaluation against the virus.
In the Centre for Animal Health Research (CISA) Spain, the testing for the efficacy of both the disinfectants was conducted, according to the EN 14675 test method, which was modified to support testing against the African Swine Fever (ASF) virus. The test results of both the products shown complete inactivation of ASF and killing the pathogen in just 10 minutes. As African Swine Fever (ASF) has been continuously spreading across Southeast Asia, China, and Europe and there is no medical treatment or vaccine available for the treatment of ASF, these disinfectants can help to control the spread of the infection in animals. This, in turn, will support to accelerate the LANXESS market share.
