概要

Stratistics MRCによると、土壌肥沃度試験の世界市場は、2022年に50億1,566万米ドルを占め、2028年には71億5,518万米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間中に6.1%のCAGRで成長するとされています。

土壌の肥沃度を検査することで、栄養不足、過剰施肥による毒性、微量ミネラル阻害物質などを浮き彫りにし、その成長の可能性を特定することができます。ここ数年、土壌肥沃度検査は、畑の収量と収益を増やす手段として、農業界で広く受け入れられています。土壌検査なしに、作物に対する適切な肥料の散布を保証し、最良の収量を得ることは非常に困難です。作物を育てる土地は、繰り返し使用することで枯渇する可能性があるため、土壌サンプリングは環境にも貢献することができます。

2018年に国連が発表した報告書によると、地球の20%が以前のように食料を生産していないそうです。この問題は、欧州の土地の5%に影響を及ぼしているだけでなく、さらに10%の土地が深刻なストレスにさらされています。そのため、EUでは土壌保護だけでなく、土壌の品質向上のためのさまざまな規制と政策が形成されています。

市場力学:

促進要因

促進要因:成長促進のための作物の栄養分に関する政府の厳しい規制

良い農業は、土壌の肥沃度検査から始まる。どこの国でも土の種類は違います。栽培する作物や使用する肥料などの要因により、農場の土壌組成は近隣の農場と異なることさえあります。したがって、植え付け前に土壌を検査することが不可欠です。これにより、土壌のpHや栄養素の構成が大まかに把握できます。作物の生産と肥料の散布をコントロールするための最も重要な手順が土壌検査です。土壌検査なしに、作物に合った肥料の正しい散布を保証し、最良の収穫を得ることは非常に困難です。また、作物を栽培する土地は、繰り返し使用することで劣化していく可能性があるため、土壌検査は環境にとっても有益です。農作物に対する需要の高まり、生産量の増加、土壌検査を繰り返し行う必要性から、土壌肥沃度検査市場は堅調に回復すると予想されます。

抑制要因

時間がかかり、繰り返し検査が必要

ほとんどの場合、サンプルを検査するラボは、サンプルを採取しなければならない場所の近くにはありません。研究所での土壌検査が完了した後、専門家が調査結果を分析し、不備があれば対策を提案するため、プロセス全体が面倒で時間がかかります。また、定期的にこの作業を行う必要があります。これらの要素は、土壌肥沃度検査の世界の市場拡大を制限する可能性があります。

機会

サンプル検査のニーズが高まっている

農業が商業化されている国では、農産物の輸出拡大を維持するための手段として、サンプルテストの人気が高まっています。標準化された種子検査手順の作成と普及を目的とした世界の組織が、国際種子検査協会(ISTA)です。現在では、種子検査と現代の種子取引動向を調整するための重要なツールとして、多くの国で認知されています。農業のサプライチェーンや食の安全におけるさまざまな問題や課題に対処する必要性が高まった結果、農業検査製品の市場ポテンシャルが高まっています。農作物の生産量を増やすため、中国やインドをはじめとする多くの発展途上国が農業分野に投資しています。これにより、土壌肥沃度検査サービスに対する需要が増加すると考えられます。

脅威:

多様な土壌タイプに適した手法の入手が困難

土壌分析には、様々な土壌タイプに適した方法を見つける難しさ、フィールド内の土壌のばらつきによるサンプリングの問題、次のシーズンの環境条件の影響を予測する難しさなどの欠点があります。このような要素は、土壌肥沃度検査の世界の市場拡大を制限する可能性があります。

COVID-19の影響:

COVID-19の発生は、労働力の減少、農業活動の鈍化、不安定なサプライチェーン、貿易移動の制限などにより、土壌肥沃度検査の市場に混乱をもたらしました。国内外の国境が突然閉鎖されたことで、アウトブレイクの結果、業務効率が歪められ、バリューチェーンが混乱しました。しかし、今後数カ月は、経済活動の再開に向けた準備のため、土壌肥沃度検査の需要は世界的に増加すると予想されます。また、COVID-19患者の増加により、栄養豊富で免疫力を高める食品、健康的な食用作物、果物、野菜への需要が高まり、土壌肥沃度検査市場の拡大が見込まれます。

予測期間中、化学検査分野が最大となる見込み

化学検査分野は、2020年に最大の市場シェアを占め、予測期間中も最大のシェアを維持すると予想されています。モニタリングツールとして、化学的土壌検査は農業システムへの過剰栄養投入を防ぐために普及しています。 pHメーター、塩分測定用機器、テストキット、試薬はすべて化学検査に含まれるものです。化学的土壌検査では、その他の物理的特性や、リン、窒素、カリウム、腐植質、利用可能な石灰、有機物、硫黄、微量元素といった植物に必須の栄養素の濃度も明らかにされます。特定の収穫量に対する土壌の栄養素の含有量に基づいて、高収量と高品質の収穫を達成するために必要な肥料の量を決定することは、化学検査の助けを借りて、より簡単です。このような要因が、この分野の成長を後押ししています。

予測期間中、オフサイトセグメンテーションのCAGRが最も高くなると予想されます。

オフライン分野は、予測期間中に全体として大きな成長を遂げると予想されています。土壌の状態や管理に関する知識、肥料支出を減らすための土壌肥沃度管理の必要性、過剰施肥を避け土壌の劣化を防ぐための戦略などを提供する土壌肥沃度検査のためのラボ手法によって、このセグメントの成長はさらに促進されます。

最もシェアの高い地域

予測期間中、欧州が土壌肥沃度検査市場を独占すると予想されます。同地域の市場拡大は、厳格な食品安全、環境、農業規制の存在や、栄養成分、化学物質、ラベル表示に関する法律の適用に起因しています。また、この地域の市場は、耕作可能な土地の増加や土壌肥沃度検査サービスを提供する企業の急増によって拡大しています。さらに、現在利用可能な土地からより高い収量を生み出すことに注目が集まっているため、市場は拡大しています。

CAGRが最も高い地域:

予測期間中、アジア太平洋地域は大きく拡大すると予測されています。アジア太平洋地域の土壌肥沃度検査市場の主な促進要因は、食品を媒介とする疾病の発生率の増加、土壌肥沃度を向上させる技術の出現、作物の栄養分に関する政府の厳しい規制です。アジア太平洋地域の企業は、競争の激しい市場での地位を維持するために、製品の発売や拡張などの有機的な成長戦略に注力しています。例えば、SGS SAは、中国市場向けに土壌、灌漑水、植物組織の検査や肥料の推奨サービスを提供することで、世界展開のための能力を強化し続けています。

主な発展を遂げる:

2022年10月、AgroCaresはケニアでDigiFarmと提携します。AgroCaresとDigiFarmは、ケニアで零細農家の土壌検査を支援するために協力することを約束しました。DigiFarmが主導するパイロットプロジェクトでは、ケニアの東部、リフト地方、西部地域の特定のパイロット郡にAgroCaresの技術を導入します。これにより、土壌検査に対する認識と需要が高まり、ケニアの農家はスキャナーの恩恵を受け、土壌の状態を即座に知ることができるようになります。このサービスは、まもなくDigiFarmのプラットフォームで利用できるようになる予定です。

2022年6月、ブルゴスにあるAGROLAB Ibericaの真新しいラボ棟の落成式が行われました。この広いラボの敷地には、スペインで最も豊富な分析項目が用意されています。典型的な分析パラメータに加え、残留物分析の全領域を提供することができるようになりました。さらに、この新しい試験所は、GMP+の認定を受け、すべての試験を社内で行っているスペインでも数少ない試験所のひとつです。

Product Code: SMRC22745

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Soil Fertility Testing Market is accounted for $5,015.66 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $7,155.18 million by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period. Testing the fertility of the soil can help identify its growth potential by highlighting nutrient deficiencies, the toxic effects of overfertilization, and trace mineral inhibitors. In the last few years, soil fertility testing has gained widespread acceptance in the agricultural industry as a means of increasing field yields and revenues. Without soil testing, it is very challenging to guarantee the proper application of fertilizers for the crop and obtain the best yield. Since the land on which we grow crops can become depleted with repeated use, soil sampling can also benefit the environment.

According to a report published by United Nations in 2018, 20% of the earth is not producing food as before. This problem is affecting 5% of European land as well as another 10% of land is under severe stress. Therefore, various regulations and policies have been formed in the EU for soil protection as well as for soil quality improvement.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Strict government regulations regarding crop nutrient content to promote growth

Good farming starts with soil fertility testing. Everywhere has a different type of soil. Farms' soil composition may even differ from that of their neighboring ones due to factors like the crops they grow and the fertilizers they use. Therefore, it is essential to test the soil before planting. This will give a general idea of the pH and nutrient makeup of the soil. The most crucial procedure for controlling crop production and fertilizer application is soil testing. It is very difficult to guarantee the correct application of fertilizers for the crop and obtain the best yield without soil testing. The environment can also benefit from soil sampling because the land where we grow our crops can become degraded with repeated use. With rising demand for agricultural products, increased production, and the requirement for recurring soil testing, the market for soil fertility testing is anticipated to experience a robust recovery.

Restraint:

Time-consuming and repeated tests

The majority of the time, the labs where samples must be tested are not close to the location where samples must be collected. The entire process is tedious and time-consuming because after the laboratory soil tests are completed, experts analyze the findings and recommend actions to be taken to address any deficiencies. Periodically, this exercise needs to be done again. These elements may limit the market expansion for soil fertility testing worldwide.

Opportunity:

Rising need for sample testing

In countries with commercialized agriculture, sample testing has grown in popularity as a means of sustaining the expansion of agricultural commodity exports. A global organization with the goal of creating and disseminating standardized seed testing procedures is the International Seed Testing Association (ISTA). It is now recognized in many nations as a crucial tool for coordinating seed testing and contemporary seed trade trends. The market potential for agricultural testing products has grown as a result of the growing need to address various problems and challenges in the agricultural supply chain and food safety. To increase crop production, a number of developing nations, including China and India, are investing in the agricultural sector. This will increase the demand for soil fertility testing services.

Threat:

Difficulty of obtaining methods suited to varied soil types

The difficulty of finding methods appropriate for various soil types, issues with sampling because of soil variation across a field, and challenges estimating the likely effects of environmental conditions in the upcoming season are some drawbacks of soil analyses. Such elements may limit the market expansion for soil fertility testing globally.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 outbreak has caused market disruption in soil fertility testing due to, among other things, a decrease in labor availability, a slowdown in agricultural activity, unstable supply chains, restrictions on trade movements, and others. The sudden closure of national and international borders has distorted operational efficiencies and disrupted value chains as a result of the outbreak. The demand for soil fertility testing is anticipated to increase globally in the upcoming months, though, as economies prepare to restart their operations. A rise in COVID-19 cases has also increased the demand for nutrient-rich and immunity-boosting food products, as well as for healthy food crops, fruits, and vegetables, which will help the soil fertility testing market to expand.

The Chemical testing segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The chemical testing segment held the largest market share in 2020 and is expected to hold the largest share over the forecast period. As a monitoring tool, chemical soil tests have become popular for preventing overnutrient input into farming systems. pH meters, equipment for measuring salinity, test kits, and reagents are all included in the chemical testing. The chemical soil test also reveals other physical characteristics and the concentration of essential plant nutrients like phosphorus, nitrogen, potassium, humus content, available lime, organic matter, sulphur, and trace elements. Based on the nutrient content of the soil for a particular yield, it is simpler to determine the amount of fertilizer required to achieve high and quality yields with the aid of a chemical test. Such factors are driving the segments growth.

The Offsite segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The offline segment is anticipated to grow at a significant rate as a whole during the projection period. The segment's growth is further fueled by laboratory methods for soil fertility testing, which provide knowledge about the condition and management of soil, the need to manage soil fertility to reduce fertilizer spending, and strategies for avoiding over-fertilization and preventing soil deterioration.

Region with highest share:

Over the forecast period, Europe is anticipated to dominate the soil fertility testing market. Market expansion in the region is attributed to the existence of strict food safety, environmental, and agricultural regulations as well as the application of laws pertaining to nutritional content, chemicals, and labeling. Additionally, the region's market is expanding due to the increased availability of arable land and the proliferation of companies offering soil fertility testing services. Furthermore, the market is expanding due to the increasing focus on generating higher yields from the land that is currently available.

Region with highest CAGR:

During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to expand significantly. The major factors driving the Asia Pacific soil fertility testing market are the growing incidence of food-borne diseases, emerging technologies to improve soil fertility, and strict government regulations regarding crop nutrient content. Asia Pacific businesses are focusing on organic growth strategies like product launches and expansions to keep their positions in the competitive market. By providing soil, irrigation water, and plant tissue testing as well as fertilizer recommendation services for the Chinese market, SGS SA, for instance, continued to strengthen its abilities for global expansion.
