Segmental Analysis

The global fungicides market has been segmented based on type, crop type, mode of application, and region.

Based on type the global market has been segmented into chemical fungicides and biofungicides. The chemical fungicides segment accounted for the largest market share of 87.60% in 2020 and is projected to register a 4.12% CAGR during the forecast period. Chemical fungicides segment is further segmented as benzimidazoles, dithiocarbamates, triazoles, phenylamides, and others. Chemical fungicides are the biocidal materials which helps in killing or preventing the growth of the fungi and their developmental spores. These fungicides controls the deadly fungal infections of the plants such as mildews, rusts and blights. There are various types of chemical fungicides such as benzimidazoles, dithiocarbamates, triazoles, phenylamides.

Based on crop type, the global fungicides market has been segmented into cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables, and others. The cereals & grains segment accounted for the largest market share of 40.86% in 2020 and is projected to register a 4.14% CAGR during the forecast period. In farming, fungicides are commonly used for treating cereals and grains. In wheat, the early growth stagings for foliar fungicides are usually done for protecting from leaf spot diseases such as septoria nodorum blotch, tanspot and septoria tritici blotch. These diseases are trash-borne, owing to which they tend to migrate up from the bottom to the top. Moreover, intensive use of fungicides for controlling major diseases in wheat such as septoria leaf blotch, powdery mildew and eyespot has over the years been found to develop resistance in fungicide in relation to benzimidazols, DMIs and strobilurins.

Based on mode of application, the global fungicides market has been segmented into Fungicides, foliar, soil treatment, and others. The Fungicides segment accounted for the largest market share of 48.41% in 2020 and is projected to register a 3.88% CAGR during the forecast period. Fungicides are applied to seed prior to planting for providing effective protection against many seed and soil-borne plant pathogens. Fungicide treatment protects seeds against the various seed rots and seedling blights that occur during storage or after planting. Fungicidal Fungicides is divided into three categories, depending on the nature and purpose of the treatment. These categories are seed disinfection, seed disinfestation, and seed protection.
