Global Controlled-Release Fertilizer Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Controlled-Release Fertilizer market size is expected to reach $ 2010 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 3.0% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Controlled-release fertilizer (CRF) is a granulated fertilizer that releases nutrients gradually into the soil (i.e., with a controlled release period). The slowness of the release is determined by the low solubility of the chemical compounds in the soil moisture. Since conventional fertilizers are soluble in water, the nutrients can disperse quickly as the fertilizer dissolves. Because controlled-release fertilizers are not water-soluble, their nutrients disperse into the soil more slowly. The fertilizer granules may have an insoluble substrate or a semi-permeable jacket that prevents dissolution while allowing nutrients to flow outward.
Global Controlled-Release Fertilizer key players include Agrium, Kingenta Ecological Engineering Group, Israel Chemicals Limited (ICL), Hanfeng Evergreen, Haifa Chemicals, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share over 70%.
Americas is the largest market, with a share over 35%, followed by EU and China, both have a share over 50%.
In terms of product, Organic Polymer Coated is the largest segment, with a share over 80%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Gardening, followed by Agriculture, etc.
