US Lawn & Garden Fertilizer
Description
US Lawn & Garden Fertilizer
Demand for lawn and garden fertilizer products is projected to advance less than 1.0% annually to nearly $4.1 billion in 2026. A significant moderation in consumer demand following pandemic-related gains in 2020 and 2021 will restrain growth. Professional end users will drive gains as more consumers return to using professional services for their lawn and garden maintenance.
Nonresidential Markets Will Dominate Advances
The residential market will continue to account for a large majority – about 75% – of fertilizer demand. However, nonresidential markets will be responsible for most of the market gains posted through 2026. While the significant golf course market will grow at a slow rate as the number of courses in the US continues to decline, the government and institutional market will grow at a healthy rate due to an expansion in government spending, including additional investment from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Also, the commercial and industrial market will be boosted by the increasing installation of green roofs to improve the eco-friendliness of these structures.
Liquid Formulations Find Increased Favor; New Packaging Supports Dry Formulations
Dry and granular fertilizer formulations will remain the leading format for packaged fertilizer products, but greater advances are anticipated for liquid iterations. This is especially true for ready-to-use products and those that are packaged in easy-use formats – for example, containers with attached sprayers – that eliminate or minimize contact with hazardous or unpleasant chemicals.
Dry fertilizer formats will also benefit from product and packaging format innovations, such as extended time-release fertilizers that make single applications effective for longer periods; improved handling characteristics; and specialized spreaders that are designed to work with packages and eliminate the need to handle dry fertilizers.
Study Description
This Freedonia industry study analyzes the $3.9 billion US packaged lawn and garden fertilizer industry. It presents historical demand data (2011, 2016, and 2021) and forecasts (2026 and 2031) by media (dry, liquid), application (lawn and turf, gardens and borders, and other applications), market (residential, golf courses, government and institutional, and commercial and industrial), and end user (consumer, service firms, and other professional users). The study includes year-by-year annual data and consumer survey data. The study also evaluates company market share and competitive analysis on industry competitors including Central Garden & Pet, Nutrien, Scotts Miracle-Gro, and Simplot.
