North America Organic Fertilizers Market

North America Organic Fertilizers Market (Product Type: Phosphate Fertilizers, Nitrogen Fertilizers, Potassium Fertilizers, Zinc Fertilizers, Ferrous Fertilizers, and Others; Crop Type: Cereals & Grains, Oilseeds & Pulses, Fruits & Vegetables, Landscaping/Gardens, and Others; Source: Plant, Animal, Mineral, and Others; and Form: Dry and Liquid) - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2020 - 2030

Transportation and Supply Chain Bottlenecks Affect Revenue Streams amidst COVID-19 Crisis

The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic has created challenges for companies in the North America organic fertilizers market. Since agriculture is seasonal, supply disruptions act as hurdles for companies in the North America organic fertilizers market, thus impacting food supply in the upcoming months. The U.S. fertilizer manufacturers are taking cues from the ECOFI (European Consortium of the Organic-Based Fertilizer Industry) and are contacting its members to identify coronavirus-related challenges that are affecting the production and supply of organic fertilizers.

Although food chain businesses were immediately classified as essential in most countries, workforce challenges remain constant in the market. Hence, companies are providing personal protective equipment (PPE) to workers to ensure their safety. Other bottlenecks such as the lack of transporters despite a decline in fuel prices has affected the supply of organic fertilizers.

Nutrient Recycling Practices Augment Consistent Nutrient Concentration in Organic Fertilizers

Organic fertilizer manufacturers are adopting various strategies such as nutrient recycling in order to facilitate consistent nutrient concentration in manure. The North America organic fertilizers market is expected to flourish at a CAGR of ~7%, where many companies and startups are actively pursuing potassium, phosphorous, and nitrogen as key elements to practice nutrient recycling. As such, nutrient recycling is supporting the act of sustainable agriculture practices and circular economy.

Companies in the North America organic fertilizers market are streamlining their production activities by taking cues from other manufacturing companies. For instance, ICL Fertilizers— a subsidiary of parent company Israel Chemicals, has built a strong portfolio in nutrient recycling for manure, which is replacing traditional organic fertilizers. Manufacturers are replacing mined phosphates with the phosphates that are sourced from a variety of ash materials.

Potassium Fertilizers Boost Maize Yields Due to Soil Amendment Properties

Potassium forms of organic fertilizers are being highly publicized to increase the yield of maize and other crops. As such, potassium is advantageous in effective element management strategy for maintaining favorable nitrogen uptake in the soil, which helps to bolster maize yields. Companies in the North America organic fertilizers market are increasing their R&D activities to analyze how compost aids in the management of carbon and nitrogen to deploy highly intensive agricultural production. Such trends are bolstering revenue growth for the North America organic fertilizers market.

Farmers are becoming increasingly aware that organic fertilizers act as excellent soil amendment agents that help to maintain a balance of nutrients in the soil. Hence, manufacturers in the North America organic fertilizers market are increasing their production capacities to increase the availability of compost.

Awareness about Soil Microbiome Helps Increase Apple and Banana Yields

Farmers are adopting various soil management strategies to improve soil quality in order to achieve higher yields of bananas and sugarcane. Lime application is one of the soil management strategies that helps to increase yields of mango and cassava. However, lime is subject to decreased magnesium (Mg) concentration in soil. Hence, companies in the North America organic fertilizers market are increasing awareness about organic amendments that help to enhance soil quality and effectively ameliorate soil acidity.

The concept of soil microbiome is growing popular in the North America organic fertilizers market. Farmers and cultivators are becoming aware that organic fertilizers help to increase soluble solids in apple trees, as there is a worldwide demand for organic and premium-quality produce. Manufacturers should aim toward increasing their distribution channels and tap into incremental opportunities in China where banana is cultivated on a large scale.

Analysts’ Viewpoint

Due to a gradual increase in the rate of retail garden centers in most cities of North America, small- and medium-scale suppliers of organic fertilizers are finding it difficult to stabilize their business amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, companies in the North America organic fertilizers market are tapping into incremental opportunities with organic liquid fertilizers that are made from humic acid of plant and animal waste. However, conventional organic fertilizers are susceptible to plant deficiency problems. Hence, manufacturers should increase the availability of anti-deficiency foliar fertilizers that help to overcome issues of plant deficiencies and aid in fast growing of crops in order to achieve higher yields.

North America Organic Fertilizers Market: Overview

  • Organic fertilizers are obtained from natural sources. These are employed to increase productivity and quality of plants. Organic fertilizers may be obtained from plants, animals, or minerals. These fertilizers can be categorized into plant-based, animal-based, and mineral-based depending on the source of the raw material.
