What Is a Agricultural Surfactants and Applications?
Agricultural surfactants are emerging as highly active and efficient components in
agricultural practices. The high incidence of environmental hazards and soil
contamination from excessive application of chemical-based products on crops is
expected to be a prominent driver for the increasing demand of bio-based
surfactants. The increasing focus on sustainability is also fostering the demand for
agricultural surfactants in conventional agricultural practices as part of integrated
crop management.
The growing pressure on the agricultural sector to increase production is promoting
the need for novel technologies and fertilizer solutions, which in turn is influencing
the demand for bio stimulants. The use of such technologies and solutions benefits
farmers by optimizing their investments with the added benefit of reducing
environmental impacts. Moreover, non-toxicity and low ecological footprint are
among key drivers for the growth of the bio-based agricultural surfactants market.
