Description

The agriculture films market in Russia has evolved steadily over the past four decades, driven by the country’s efforts to modernize agriculture and enhance crop productivity in diverse climatic regions. Initial adoption began in the 1980s, primarily in greenhouse cultivation and open-field vegetable farming in regions such as Krasnodar Krai, Rostov Oblast, and Moscow Oblast, where low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films were used for mulching to conserve soil moisture, regulate temperature, and suppress weeds. During the 1990s, greenhouse farming expanded significantly to support year-round cultivation of high-value vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers, with the introduction of EVA/EBA copolymer films improving light transmission, thermal insulation, and film durability. Concurrently, the livestock sector, particularly dairy and cattle farming in regions such as Tatarstan, Voronezh, and Belgorod, drove demand for silage films to preserve forage quality and minimize feed spoilage during long storage periods. The 2000s saw technological advancements such as multilayer extrusion, UV stabilization, and enhanced mechanical properties, which extended the lifespan and efficiency of agricultural films under Russia’s extreme climatic conditions, including cold winters and hot summers. In recent years, environmental and regulatory considerations, including waste management policies and recycling initiatives, have influenced market evolution, leading to gradual adoption of biodegradable and recyclable films. Today, Russia’s agriculture films market reflects a combination of traditional polyethylene usage for cost-effective applications and advanced copolymer films for greenhouse and silage operations, supporting the country’s objectives of improving agricultural output, ensuring food security, and complying with emerging environmental sustainability standards.

According to the research report ""Russia Agriculture Films Market Overview, 2030,”published by Bonafide Research, the Russia Agriculture Films market is anticipated to grow at more than 8.92% CAGR from 2025 to 2030. The regulatory and environmental framework in Russia significantly shapes the agriculture films market, guided by national policies on plastic usage, waste management, and sustainability. Russia enforces regulations to manage plastic consumption and disposal, with government oversight promoting proper collection and recycling of used agricultural plastics to mitigate soil contamination and environmental hazards. While formal standards for biodegradable and compostable films are still developing domestically, international frameworks, including EU Green Deal directives, US EPA guidelines, and global best practices, influence manufacturers and importers to adopt eco-friendly materials and certified biodegradable films. Government subsidies and policy incentives encourage investment in advanced agricultural technologies, including high-performance greenhouse, mulching, and silage films, while promoting the gradual introduction of environmentally sustainable alternatives. The Russian government also supports initiatives aimed at enhancing crop productivity and reducing resource wastage, which indirectly drives adoption of water-efficient and long-lasting agriculture films. Waste management and circular economy practices are being strengthened, with increased emphasis on the collection, recycling, and reprocessing of polyethylene films, often facilitated by agricultural cooperatives and industry associations. These initiatives help ensure that used films are either recycled into secondary products or safely disposed of, reducing environmental impact. Additionally, environmental awareness campaigns and policy encouragement for sustainable farming practices are fostering interest in biodegradable and compostable film alternatives, aligning Russia’s agriculture films market with global sustainability trends.

In Russia, the agriculture films market is predominantly driven by polyethylene-based materials, with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) accounting for the largest share due to their affordability, flexibility, and versatility across greenhouse, mulching, and silage applications. LDPE is extensively used for open-field mulching in regions such as Krasnodar Krai, Rostov Oblast, and Moscow Oblast, where it helps regulate soil temperature, retain moisture, and suppress weeds, thereby enhancing crop yields in vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and root crops. LLDPE has gained prominence for greenhouse coverings and silage films due to its higher tensile strength, puncture resistance, and durability under Russia’s extreme climatic conditions, which include cold winters and hot summers. High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is employed in niche applications requiring rigidity and chemical resistance, such as protective covers, heavy-duty silage films, and irrigation infrastructure. EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) and EBA (ethylene-butyl acrylate) copolymers are increasingly utilized in advanced greenhouse films, providing superior light transmission, thermal insulation, elasticity, and UV stability, enabling year-round cultivation of high-value crops. Reclaims, or recycled polyethylene films, are gradually gaining adoption in cost-sensitive mulching and silage applications, supported by emerging recycling initiatives, though performance limitations restrict their use in premium applications. Other specialty materials, including biodegradable and compostable films, are in early-stage adoption, driven by environmental awareness and alignment with international sustainability standards.

In Russia, agriculture films are widely applied across greenhouse, mulching, and silage segments, reflecting the country’s focus on enhancing crop productivity, supporting livestock farming, and adopting modern agricultural practices. Greenhouse films represent a major portion of demand, particularly in regions such as Krasnodar Krai, Rostov Oblast, Moscow Oblast, and Tatarstan, where controlled-environment agriculture enables year-round cultivation of high-value vegetables, including tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and berries for domestic and export markets. Multilayer polyethylene and EVA/EBA copolymer films are commonly used for greenhouses, providing superior light transmission, thermal insulation, and UV resistance, optimizing growing conditions and energy efficiency in commercial operations. Mulching films are extensively applied in open-field cultivation across central and southern Russia, improving soil moisture retention, regulating temperature, and suppressing weed growth, which enhances yields and reduces water usage for crops such as carrots, potatoes, and leafy vegetables. The adoption of biodegradable mulching films is gradually increasing, driven by environmental awareness and international sustainability standards, although penetration remains limited. Silage films are critical for livestock and dairy farming in regions such as Tatarstan, Voronezh, and Belgorod, where preserving forage quality and minimizing spoilage during long-term storage are essential for maintaining livestock nutrition. Farmers increasingly rely on multilayer silage wraps and oxygen barrier films to enhance durability, storage life, and protection against harsh climatic conditions. Overall, the application segmentation in Russia demonstrates a balanced approach: greenhouse films support high-value and technologically advanced cultivation, mulching films improve open-field productivity and water efficiency, and silage films ensure livestock feed preservation, collectively sustaining agricultural efficiency and compliance with emerging environmental standards.
