農業用石灰石市場の2030年までの予測：製品タイプ、用途、エンドユーザー、地域別の世界分析

Stratistics MRCによると、世界の農業用石灰石市場は2024年に1億6,036万米ドルを占め、2030年には2億3,398万米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間中のCAGRは6.5%です。

重要な農業サプリメントである石灰石は、主に炭酸カルシウムで構成され、植物の生育に適した環境を作るために酸性土壌を中和するために使用されます。石灰石は、カリウム、リン、窒素などの植物に不可欠な栄養素の利用可能性を高めるために、pHレベルを上げます。さらに、土壌中の有機物の分解を促し、微生物の活動をより健全にし、土壌構造を改善します。

米国農業協会によれば、持続可能な農法は、長期的な食糧安全保障を確保しつつ、土壌の健全性と生物多様性を維持するために不可欠です。

持続可能性と土壌の健全性に関する知識の高まり

土壌の劣化や環境の持続可能性に対する懸念の高まりから、農家やその他の農業利害関係者の間で、土壌の健康を維持することの重要性に対する認識が高まっています。さらに、石灰石は土壌構造の改善と酸性土壌の中和に貢献し、栄養分の利用可能性と保水性を高めます。このような理解から、石灰石は生態系の健全性と長期的な土壌生産性を向上させる持続可能な方法として、農業に広く使用されるようになってきています。

土壌改良の代替方法

土壌改良には、石灰石に加え、石膏や有機堆肥の2つの選択肢があります。特定の土壌要件や作物のニーズによっては、石灰石よりもこれらの代替資材が好まれる場合もあります。さらに、農家が土壌改良のためのさまざまな選択肢の長所と短所を評価するため、農業用石灰石市場の成長は、これらの代替品との競合によって妨げられる可能性があります。

発展途上地域における農業の成長

農業活動の拡大は、発展途上地域における人口増加と経済発展によって推進されています。これらの地域の農家が生産性と作物収量の増加に目を向けているため、土壌肥沃度を高め、持続可能な農業慣行をサポートすることができる石灰石のような土壌改良材の需要が高まっています。さらに、石灰石のサプライヤーは、これらの地域への市場拡大の結果、新たな市場に手を伸ばし、現地での流通や施用サービスのための提携を結ぶチャンスを持っています。

土壌改良剤の競合

石灰石は、農業セクターにおいて石膏、有機堆肥、バイオ炭などの代替土壌改良材の利用可能性と使用との競合に直面しています。農家の特定の土壌条件や作物要件にもよるが、これらの代替資材は、土壌構造の強化、保水性の向上、微量栄養素の濃縮といった特定の利点をもたらすため、魅力的な場合があります。さらに、石灰石市場の成長は、これらの代替品との競合によって妨げられる可能性があります。特に、代替改良材が好まれたり、補助金や農業改良普及プログラムによって支援されている地域ではなおさらです。

COVID-19の影響：

農業に使用される石灰石市場において、COVID-19の大流行はさまざまな影響を及ぼしました。石灰石製品の流通と入手は当初、人員不足、物流の困難、サプライチェーンの混乱によって妨げられました。農業活動の低下と農家の需要の変動は、封鎖措置と経済の不確実性によって引き起こされ、市場力学を変化させました。加えて、加工工場や鉱山の一時的な閉鎖による供給のひずみもあった。

予測期間中、粒状／パレタイズド・セグメントが最大となる見込み

農業用石灰石市場では通常、粒状またはパレット状の石灰石セグメントが最大のシェアを占めています。農家やその他の農業関係者は、粒状またはパレット状の石灰石製品を好みます。これらの製品は、小さな粒やペレットに細かく粉砕されているため、大きくて粗い形態の石灰石よりも土壌に溶けやすいです。さらに、酸性土壌をより簡単かつ迅速に中和し、土壌肥沃度を向上させ、その過程で作物の健全な生育を促します。

土壌pH管理セグメントは予測期間中最も高いCAGRが見込まれる

予測CAGRが最も高い分野は土壌pH管理です。石灰石は、作物の生育に不可欠なpHレベルを維持・調整するために土壌に施用されます。作物の養分吸収を妨げる可能性のある酸性土壌を迅速かつ効率的に中和するため、土壌pH管理に使用される石灰石製品は細かく粉砕されています。さらに、農家が作物の生産性を最大化する上で土壌pHの重要性を認識するようになり、バランスのとれた土壌状態を維持することの長期的な利点がこの市場を牽引しています。

最大のシェアを持つ地域

北米は通常、農業用石灰石市場で最大のシェアを占めています。この地域では、土壌pHを制御し、作物の生産性を向上させるために石灰石に大きく依存する広範な農業慣行が、この優位性の主な原因です。北米の農家は、一部の地域で一般的な酸性土壌に対抗するために石灰石を頻繁に使用し、作物の栄養利用率を高め、より健全な植物の成長を促しています。さらに、この地域の石灰石製品に対する需要は、現代的な農業技術の採用と持続可能な農法の重視によってさらに支えられています。

CAGRが最も高い地域：

アジア太平洋は通常、農業用石灰石市場で最も高いCAGRを有しています。この成長には、農業活動の拡大、土壌の健康管理に対する一般市民の意識の高まり、中国、インド、東南アジアなどの国々における現代的な農業技術の広範な採用など、数多くの要因が寄与しています。石灰石は、作物の収量を上げ、土壌のpHレベルを上げ、作物の栄養利用性を改善するために、これらの地域でますます使用されています。さらに、農業における石灰石の需要は、食糧安全保障を改善し、持続可能な農業を奨励する政府の取り組みもあって増加しています。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Limestone for Agriculture Market is accounted for $160.36 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $233.98 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. A vital agricultural supplement, limestone is primarily made up of calcium carbonate and is used to neutralize acidic soils in order to create an environment that is more conducive to plant growth. Limestone raises pH levels in order to increase the availability of essential plant nutrients such as potassium, phosphorus, and nitrogen. Moreover, it also encourages the breakdown of organic matter in the soil, which in turn promotes healthier microbial activity and improves soil structure.

According to the American Agricultural Association, sustainable farming practices are essential for preserving soil health and biodiversity while ensuring long-term food security.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing knowledge of sustainability and soil health

Growing awareness of the significance of preserving soil health is occurring among farmers and other agricultural stakeholders due to growing concerns about soil degradation and environmental sustainability. Additionally, limestone contributes to improved soil structure and acidic soil neutralization, which enhances nutrient availability and water retention. Because of this understanding, limestone is becoming more widely used in agriculture as a sustainable method of improving ecosystem health and long-term soil productivity.

Restraint:

Alternative amendments to the soil

For soil amendment, gypsum or organic compost are two options in addition to limestone. These substitutes may occasionally be preferred over limestone, depending on the particular soil requirements and crop needs. Furthermore, the growth of the limestone for agriculture market may be hindered by competition from these alternatives as farmers evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of various options for soil amendment.

Opportunity:

Growth in agricultural practices in developing areas

The expansion of agricultural activities is being driven by population growth and economic development in developing regions. The demand for soil amendments like limestone, which can increase soil fertility and support sustainable agriculture practices, is rising as farmers in these regions look to increase productivity and crop yields. Moreover, suppliers of limestone have the chance to reach out to new markets and form alliances for local distribution and application services as a result of market expansion into these areas.

Threat:

Alternative soil amendment competition

Limestone faces competition from the availability and use of substitute soil amendments like gypsum, organic compost, and biochar in the agricultural sector. Depending on the particular soil conditions and crop requirements of the farmer, these alternatives may be appealing because they provide specific benefits like enhanced soil structure, better water retention, or micronutrient enrichment. Additionally, the growth of the limestone market may be hampered by competition from these alternatives, especially in areas where alternative amendments are favored or supported by subsidies or agricultural extension programs.

Covid-19 Impact:

On the market for limestone used in agriculture, the COVID-19 pandemic had a variety of effects. The distribution and availability of limestone products were initially hampered by personnel shortages, logistical difficulties, and supply chain disruptions. Reduced agricultural activity and varying farmer demand were caused by lockdown measures and economic uncertainty, which changed market dynamics. Additionally, strain on supply came from the temporary closure of processing plants and mines.

The Granular/Palletized segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The granular or palletized limestone segment usually holds the largest share of the limestone for agriculture market. Farmers and other agricultural professionals prefer granular or palletized limestone products because of their uniform spreading and ease of application. These products dissolve more easily in soil than larger, coarse forms of limestone because they are finely ground into small granules or pellets. Furthermore, this makes it easier and faster to neutralize acidic soils, improving soil fertility and encouraging healthier crop growth in the process.

The Soil pH Management segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The segment with the highest projected CAGR is expected to be soil pH management. Limestone is applied to the soil in order to maintain and adjust its pH level, which is essential for the best possible crop growth. In order to ensure prompt and efficient neutralization of acidic soils, which can otherwise impede crop nutrient uptake, limestone products used for soil pH management are finely ground. Moreover, farmers growing awareness of the significance of soil pH in maximizing crop productivity and the long-term advantages of maintaining balanced soil conditions is what is driving this market.

Region with largest share:

North America usually holds the largest share of the limestone for agriculture market. The region's extensive agricultural practices, which heavily rely on limestone to control soil pH and increase crop productivity, are the main cause of this dominance. Farmers in North America frequently use limestone to counteract acidic soils that are common in some regions, which increases crop nutrient availability and encourages healthier plant growth. Furthermore, the demand for limestone products in this region is further supported by the adoption of contemporary agricultural techniques and the emphasis on sustainable farming practices.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia-Pacific usually has the highest CAGR in the limestone for agriculture market. Numerous factors are contributing to this growth, such as the expansion of agricultural activities, growing public awareness of soil health management, and the widespread adoption of contemporary farming techniques in nations like China, India, and Southeast Asia. Limestone is being used more and more in these areas to raise crop yields, raise soil pH levels, and improve crop nutrient availability. Moreover, limestone demand in agriculture is rising due in part to government initiatives to improve food security and encourage sustainable agriculture.
