Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2025959 | Category : Agriculture | Delivery Format: /

The global market for potash fertilizer is projected to have a considerable CAGR of around 4.6% during the forecast period. Potash is commonly used to describe potassium-containing salts used as fertilizer. As a source of soluble potassium, potash is vital to the agricultural industry as a primary plant nutrient. Potash increases water retention in plants, influences the taste, and improves crop yields, texture, and nutritional value of many plants. Governments globally are focusing on boosting their agriculture sector. Government laws, such as the Indian government's Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN), will enable the agriculture sector to develop. All farmer groups across the country will receive income support of Rs.6000/- per year in three equal installments of Rs.2000/- every four months under the Scheme, which will financially assist the farmers and allow them to focus more on farming. With the expansion of the agricultural sector, the market for Potash Fertilizers will expand as well.

Impact of COVID-19 on Potash Fertilizer Market 

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the market. During the initial lockdown, shipments were hampered by a labour shortage and the closure of a few fertilizers’ units located in the integrated chemical complexes. China, being the epicentre of the pandemic, was greatly impacted, however, the country's situation has stabilized, and all fertilizer production rates have increased. As a result, COVID-19's overall impact on the potash fertilizers business appears to be minimal.

Segmental Outlook  

The global potash fertilizer market is segmented based on types, and applications. Based on the types, the market is further classified into muriate of potash, sulfate of potash, nitrate of potash, and permanganate of potash. Further, based on the application the market is classified into grains and cereals, pulses and oilseeds, commercial crops, fruits and vegetables, and others.

Global Potash Fertilizer Market Share by types, 2020(%)

Global Potash Fertilizer Market Share by types

The Muriate of Potash Segment is Considered as the Dominating Segment in the Global Potash Fertilizer Market. 

Among types, the muriate of potash segment is estimated as dominating segment during the forecast period as the most common form of potash fertilizers used by farmers across the world is muriate of potash. Muriate of potash, also known as potassium chloride contains 60% potash. It plays a vital role in the production of proteins and sugars and mixes well with most fertilizers. It also protects against draught by maintaining plants' water content which in turn is a benefit for photosynthesis as leaves maintain their shape and vigor. Additionally, it is the most commonly used potash fertilizer and can be used to farm a variety of foods, particularly chloride-loving vegetables.

Regional Outlook 

Geographically, the global Potash Fertilizer market is classified into four major regions including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of the World (Latin America and the Middle East and Africa (MEA)). North America is projected to have a significant CAGR in the potash fertilizer market. The growth is attributed to the increased farmer awareness of the need for nutrients and crop production, decreasing agricultural land area are the two factors driving the market growth. On the contrary factors such as increasing demand for organic farming and rising environmental issues are likely to refrain the market growth.

Global Potash Fertilizer Market Growth, by region

Asia-Pacific to hold a considerable CAGR in the global Potash Fertilizer market

Geographically, Asia-Pacific is projected to hold a significant CAGR global potash fertilizer market. The Asia-Pacific region's population is rapidly growing. As the world's population grows, so does the demand for food. The factors such as the need for agricultural intensification while pursuing increasingly sustainable methods and seeking biological alternatives to enhance productivity while reducing environmental pressure to close the yield gap are the key reasons driving potash fertilizer demand. According to the FAO, fertilizer consumption is projected to increase by 1% in South Asia every year up to 2030 to increase agricultural productivity.

Market Players Outlook

The key players in the Potash Fertilizer market contribute significantly by providing different types of products and increasing their geographical presence across the globe. The key players of the market include Nutrien Ltd, The Mosaic Co, ICL Group, Uralkali PJSC. among others. These market players adopt various strategies such as product launches, partnerships, collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions to sustain a strong position in the market., In May 2018, the Mosaic Company launched a new micronutrient fertilizer product called Aspire. The product consists of two forms of boron with potassium. Aspire is the first-of-its-kind micronutrient enhanced potash fertilizer. Formed using Nutriform technology, Aspire combines potassium and boron in each granule to help achieve uniform nutrient distribution of B. The higher yield with Aspire compared to other treatments demonstrates the advantages of uniform nutrient distribution with a premium potash fertilizer containing boron.
