Weeds compete with desirable plants for nutrients and moisture. Whether they are toxic, unpleasant to eat, or look unattractive, they interfere with the production and maintenance of crops and pastures. Preventative weed control strategies include using only certified weed-free seeds, only transporting hay that has been treated for weeds and screening irrigation water to prevent the spread of weed seeds. Agricultural weed control methods include tillage and mowing.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing global food demand are advancements in weed control technologies are anticipated to drive the growth of the global weed control market over the forecast period. Moreover, expansion of agriculture and landscaping industries and growing concerns about invasive species are also expected to boost the growth of the global weed control market over the forecast period. Biologically-based weed control, precision weed control technologies, herbicide-tolerant crop traits, and integrated weed management solutions are expected to create growth opportunities for the global weed control market during the forecast period.
However, herbicide resistance, environmental concerns, public perception, and consumer preferences are expected to hamper the growth of the weed control market over the forecast period.
