Report Description


The global soil amendments market size was around USD 3.7 Bn in 2022 and is estimated to reach USD 7.9 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 10.8% during the forecast period, 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to increasing population resulting in rising demand for food & agriculture.

Soil amendments widen the gap between soil particles, allowing the soil to absorb and retain more water. Soil supplements, which comprise soil conditioners and fertilizers, improve plant development and water retention by making the soil more appropriate for plant growth. Soil additives can be used to improve native, disturbed, or compacted soils.

Global Soil Amendments Market Outlook

Pollutants can be removed from amended soils by precipitation, filtration, and bacterial and chemical degradation. Farmers can boost soil health and reduce the usage of conventional fertilizers and synthetic which create an environmentally aware agricultural experience. Using amendments can reduce fossil fuel use and air pollution. It improves the coarse-textured soils by increasing the water and nutrient-holding capacity. Furthermore, soil amendments are usually used to increase soil structure, microbiological activity, and nutrient composition of the soil.

The Covid-19 pandemic affected the market growth owing to a decline in the demand and supply of soil amendments.  The launch of vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period. The demand and supply of construction materials are affected due to restrictions imposed around the world to stop the outbreak. This interrupts manufacturing procedures across the world.

Soil Amendments Market Dynamics

Key Drivers

Easy availability of humic compounds is projected to drive the market during the forecast period. Humic substances circulate organic carbon-containing materials in aquatic and terrestrial environments.

Growing concerns regarding soil health issues and climate change and the increasing demand for high-margin crops are fuelling market growth. The manufacturers of soil amendment are mixing new types of soil amendments into fertilizer formulations.

The rising number of landfills, superfund sites, and mining sites leads to the degradation of soil in North America. This results in great damage to crop productivity as degraded soil does not have enough nutrients and organic content. Thus, soil amendments are expected to replace such fertilizers worldwide.

Global Soil Amendments Market Dynamics

Existing Restraints

Increasing supply of contaminated and low-quality products is expected to hamper the soil amendments market. Moreover, the availability of counterfeit products and lack of awareness among farmers about soil amendments is likely to restrain the market in the coming years. The low shelf life of soil amendments is projected to restrain the market. Soil amendments are important for plants but market conditions make it problematic to find accurate amendments for consumer needs. This hampers the market.

Emerging Opportunities

R&D investments in the field of agriculture are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players. The rapid expansion of innovation in the agriculture sector, the development of agricultural practices, and the demand for enhanced soil treatment products are fueling the market. Furthermore, increasing initiatives by government agencies to promote organic amendments are likely to propel the market.

Market Segment Insights

In terms of type, the soil amendments market is fragmented into inorganic, polysaccharide derivatives, lime, gypsum, biofertilizers, seaweed, humic acid, and organic. The organic segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market during the forecast period. Increasing demand for organic soil additives to address chemical, biological, and physical aspects of soil is driving the market.

Organic matter improves soil nutrient and water content, nutrient and water retention capabilities, and cation exchange capacity. It improves the pH and texture of the soil and provides energy to microorganisms.

Global Soil Amendments Market Type

On the basis of soil type, the market is segregated into slit, clay, loam, and sand. The loam segment is expected to expand at a significant growth rate during the projection period, owing to the rising usage of loamy soil in cultivating high-value crops, notably fruits, and vegetables. Loamy soil is a mixture of silt, clay, and sand with a variety of soil particle sizes.

This soil allows water to flow slowly, due to its porous nature. Loose soil allows air to mingle with the soil, which is necessary for plant growth. Rotational farming is typically performed on loamy fields, which is estimated to boost demand for agrochemicals such as soil supplements.

The clay segment is anticipated to grow at a significant pace in the coming years. Clay has a great molding capacity. Thus, it can be molded in various shapes by adding water, and organic & inorganic land conditioners to it. It is extensively used in the ceramic industry for making household appliances, pots, and pipes. Furthermore, it is used for making walls, ceramic tiles, and floors.

According to the article published by Prasar Bharti, in April 2022, India achieved a record of USD 3,464 million in exporting ceramics and glassware products between 2021 and 2022. Moreover, clay soil is used in land amendments to increase the pores, stop erosion, and prevent crusting.

Based on crop type, the soil amendments market is segmented into fruits & vegetables, oilseeds & pulses, and cereals & grains. The oilseeds & pulses segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the projected period, due to the increasing usage of oilseeds, such as soybean, to feed animals in different forms and for the manufacturing of renewable chemicals and biodiesel. This is one of the primary reasons for boosting soybean yields, which drives the use of biofertilizers as soil amendments.

Global Soil Amendments Market Crop Type

On the basis of form, the market is bifurcated into liquid and dry. The liquid segment is expected to register a robust growth rate during the assessment period, owing to the large availability of soil supplements in the liquid form and longer shelf life. Benefits associated such as better efficacy rate and application capability of liquid form are likely to boost the segment.

In terms of region, the global soil amendments market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to dominate the market during the projection period. One of the major causes contributing to soil deterioration in North America is the increase in industrial events. Furthermore, North America is home to various mines, which are liable for bare soil land and causes rain and wind erosion
