Segments - North America Soil Treatment Market by Technologies (Biological Treatment, Thermal Treatment, and Physiochemical Treatment), Types (pH Adjusters, Organic Amendments, and Soil Protection), and Geography (The US, Canada, Mexico, and Rest of North America) - North America Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2023 – 2031
The North America soil treatment market size was valued at USD 44.51 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 76.62 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 6.22% during the forecast period, 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to agricultural advancement in many developed nations, rising concerns about shrinking of arable lands, and growing demand for high-quality food products.
Soil treatment methods involve improvement of soil content to enhance the biological and physical quality of soil. The quality of soil is degrading due to increasing industrialization resulting into the soil pollution.
Soil pollution is mainly caused by use of chemical pesticides, urban waste, and industrial waste that includes the presence of toxic chemicals. The chemicals released from industries includes particulate matter, chemical oxides, and impure oils along with other chemical mixtures that makes the soil infertile and further affect the growth of crops adversely.
Soil treatment in present times, mainly includes increasing nutritional value of the soil to improve the quality and fertility of the soil along with increasing organic contents of the soil in order to enhance the texture of the soil and its water holding capacity.
Soil treatment acts as a fruitful solution for increasing cultivation yield, managing the biodiversity, and saving the ecosystem. The use of soil treatment products helps in balancing the pH level of the soil, improving the moisture retention capacity of the soil, and restoring the microbial activity in the soil.
Soil treatment method such as bioremediation is used to break down the organic contaminants with the help of micro-organisms. A process called bioventing is also used with bioremediation to speed up the process by blowing oxygen into the soil, and thereby helping the organisms to grow better.
Soil vapor extraction, soil washing, soil incineration, and natural attenuation are some of the widely used methods to treat the soil. However, the bioremediation is the mosteco-friendly method of soil cleaning and is adopted by many small scale farmers to enhance the fertility of the soil.

Based on technologies, the market is segregated into biological treatment, thermal treatment, and physiochemical treatment. The thermal treatment segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period owing to the cleaning of the contaminated soil in less amount of time.
Moreover, the thermal treatment of the soil allows desorption of the soil without physical excavation and transportation, which results into cost savings at a major degree. Conversely, the biological treatment segment is anticipated to hold a considerable market share in coming years owing to cost-effective and reliable results due to its eco-friendly methods.
On the basis of types, the North America soil treatment market is divided into pH adjusters, organic amendments, and soil protection. The organic amendments segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the projected period due to its multiple benefits to the soil including betterment in plant growth and provision for better environment for roots.
Additional, the use of organic amendments to the soil improves the structure of the soil and its water holding capacity is the major factor that aids the growth of the market segment in the coming years.
However, the soil treatment segment is anticipated to exhibit a substantial growth during the forecast period owing to the high demand for arable land that results into the large scale use of soil treatment products.
In terms of geography, the market is classified as the US, Canada, Mexico, and Rest of North America. The US is anticipated to constitute a key share of the market during the projected period owing to large amount of soil contamination in the country.
Moreover, the wood preservation method that involves the use complex chemicals, resulting into soil contamination due to chemical leaks is one of the major reasons behind the rapid expansion of the soil treatment market in the country.
Additionally, the composed pesticides of lead-arsenate and many other remnants of the build-up of contaminants also contribute to the growth of the soil treatment market in the US country. However, the market in Canada is anticipated to exhibit a robust CAGR during the forecast period due to advanced farming practices and large-scale use of organic amendments in the country.
