This method is specially used to enhance the crop productivity as well as protect the crops, which is applicable to fruits & vegetables, cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, and other horticulture crops. Continuously growing population coupled with rise in the demand for food is driving the growth of global crop protection market. Additionally, factors such as soil degradation, limited farmland, and erratic climatic conditions along with rising awareness about advantages of crop-protection chemicals have led to an increase in the demand for Crop Protection chemicals.

By crop type, market can be segmented as fruits & vegetables, cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses and others. By mode of application, market can be segmented as seed treatment, foliar spray and soil treatment. Seed treatment segment dominates the crop protection market owing to rise in demand for seeds treated with crop protection chemicals. By origin type, market can be segmented as synthetic and bio-based. Bio-based pesticides segment is anticipated to exhibit higher growth rate due to rise in awareness about them being eco-friendly and less toxic during the forecast period. By form type, market can be segmented as liquid form and solid form. In addition, by type of pesticides used for crop protection are fungicides, herbicides, insecticides and others.
