Report Code : CVMI280520251 | Published Date : May 28, 2025
Organic fertilizers, derived from natural sources such as plant residues, animal manure, compost, and bio-based minerals, are transforming modern agriculture. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, they improve soil health, increase microbial activity, and reduce environmental pollution. The global shift toward sustainable farming, strict regulations on chemical inputs (e.g., EU’s Farm to Fork Strategy), and consumer demand for organic food are driving this transition.
Key Trends:
- Regenerative Agriculture: Farmers use organic fertilizers to rebuild soil organic matter and sequester carbon.
- Circular Economy: Waste-to-fertilizer innovations (e.g., food waste upcycling) gain traction.
- Precision Organic Farming: IoT and AI optimize application rates for organic inputs.
