Natural soil conditioners, with respect to type, is projected to dominate the soil conditioners market
Natural soil conditioners segment dominated the market as their usage in soil conditioning is traced traditionally for several years. Natural soil conditioners properties such as improving soil structure and reduced compaction in soil along with ease of local availability and trending organic farming concepts are the key factors that are driving this segment market. Within natural soil conditioners, polysaccharide derivatives accounted for the major share in 2016.
Agricultural applications are driving the soil conditioners market globally
The agricultural applications segment accounted for a larger share in the soil conditioners market in terms of both, value and volume, in 2016. Soil conditioners plays a prominent role for agricultural application with their ability to improve the soil fertility, texture, and quality. Moreover, soil conditioners are also used for tunneling and mining purposes to loosen the soil for easy excavation and to stabilize the excavated soil.
Clay soil segment is projected to be the fastest growing in the soil conditioners market
The application of soil conditioners in clay soils is projected to grow at the highest rates compared to other soil types as clay soil gets easily compacted and requires loosening of soil particles to support the better plant growth and increased water infiltration rate. Other soil types such as sandy and peat soils require soil conditioners for enhanced water holding capacity.
