Ammonium Nitrate Market, By Application (Mining, Quarrying, Civil Construction, and Others), By End-use Industry (Agriculture, Mining, Pharmaceutical, Plastics, Pulp and Paper, and Others), By Grade (Agriculture Grade, Industrial Grade, Food Grade, Techni

The global ammonium nitrate market has been witnessing steady growth over the past few years owing to increasing demand from the agriculture and construction industries. Ammonium nitrate is one of the widely used fertilizers globally as it contains high amount of nitrogen which is the essential nutrient required for healthy growth of plants. It helps in increasing crop yields substantially. Moreover, ammonium nitrate also finds applications as an oxidizing agent in explosives and propellants used in mining and construction activities. Wide range of end-use industries, growing population globally increasing demand for food, and rapid infrastructure growth in developing nations are some of the key factors expected to drive the demand for ammonium nitrate in the coming years. However, stringent regulations regarding the storage and transportation of ammonium nitrate due to its hazardous nature can slightly hamper the market growth.

Market Dynamics

The global ammonium nitrate market is expected to witness steady growth over the forecast period owing to growing demand from the agriculture and construction sectors. Rapid growth in world population coupled with rising disposable income has increased the demand for food globally, which, in turn, is driving the need for ammonium nitrate as fertilizer. According to UN data 2021, the world population is expected to reach around 9.7 billion by 2050 which will expand agricultural activities significantly. This is a major growth driver for the ammonium nitrate market. On the construction side, increasing infrastructure development activities in emerging economies of Asia Pacific and the Middle East countries are fueling the demand for ammonium nitrate for mining and quarrying applications.
