North America Nematicides Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The North America nematicides market size reached USD 277.70 Million in 2024. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.20% between 2025 and 2034, reaching almost USD 419.04 Million by 2034.

The demand for safer crops, stricter laws, more stringent crop protection methods, and the introduction of innovative products are all contributing to the growth of the North America nematicides market

Fruits and vegetables are examples of high-value crops that make up for a substantial portion of North American agriculture. These crops have been particularly prone to nematode damage, resulting in substantially lower quality and output. Nematicides are frequently utilized by farmers to safeguard these vital resources.

However, the growing need for safer and more targeted goods, as well as the increasing regulatory scrutiny on many of the conventional nematicides, are directly linked to this renewed interest in nematicides. As a result, some commonly used fumigant and non-fumigant nematicides (such methyl bromide and aldicarb) have been banned. Growers are now more concerned about the disappearance of conventional nematicides, and the crop protection business has come up with new opportunities as a result of this, as well as a lack of substitute products and more knowledge of the harm that nematodes may do.

In June 2023, California Department of Pesticide Regulation approved MeloCon LC, allowing farmers in the state of California a new product to use in their fields, orchards, and vineyards to combat the danger posed by nematodes. MeloCon LC, a product of Certis Biologicals, prevents or reduces root damage brought on by plant parasitic nematodes, protecting yields in fruit, vegetable, vine, tubers, and many other crops. It may be used in both conventional and organic cropping systems because of its built-in natural fungal parasite, which is extremely efficient against a variety of nematode pests without harming beneficial species.
