Soil Wetting Agents Market Dynamics
Increase in Turf Management Care
The sports industry, including golf courses, athletic fields, and stadiums, places a high value on turf quality. This drives the demand for soil-wetting agents as they are essential for managing moisture levels in sports turf, contributing to improved playing conditions and reduced wear and tear. Hence, such factors can help in increasing the market for global soil-wetting agents.
Furthermore, manufacturers are highly focused on this product, for instance, in June 2023, an advanced grass solutions company launched Growth Products HydroSmart (NG), the latest in surfactant technology. It is a triblock copolymer wetting agent, designed to prevent and cure hydrophobic soils. Available in liquid, granular, and pellet form. Hence, such products can help in increasing the market growth.
Increase in Product Development
Ongoing research and development efforts lead to the creation of advanced formulations of soil-wetting agents. These formulations may offer improved effectiveness, longer-lasting effects, and enhanced compatibility with different soil types. Hence, it can help increase the adoption rate for soil-wetting agents.
Furthermore, as the manufacturer's companies are investing more in developing these soil-wetting agents, for instance, in July 2023, Precision Laboratories launched Cascade Tre. This enhanced formulation delivers trusted Cascade performance with optimized water use efficiency and turfgrass safety. The versatile rates allow turf managers to customize their watering programs to achieve their desired hydration and playability. Hence, such products can help in gaining popularity as soil-wetting agents.
Volatility of Raw Material
Surfactants, a common component in soil-wetting agents, are derived from various raw materials such as petrochemicals, and natural sources like fatty acids, and others. Fluctuations in the prices of these raw materials can directly impact the production costs of soil-wetting agents. Hence, it can hamper the market growth.
Soil Wetting Agents Market Segment Analysis
The global soil wetting agents market is segmented based on form, distribution channel, end-use product, application, and region.
Increase in demand for Effective Soil Treatment
The liquid form of soil-wetting agents shows the maximum share in the global soil-wetting agents market, farmers are highly adopting these liquid soil-wetting agents as they ensure uniform distribution and availability of moisture in the root zone, reduce evaporative water loss, and aid in water penetration. Prevents the problems of too little or too much water. It is non-toxic to plants and animals and biodegradable.
Furthermore, as the adoption rate for these liquid soil-wetting agents is rising, manufacturing companies are launching many innovative products to attract larger consumer bases. For instance, in March 2023, Fernland launched the FloraTech range - the AquaPro, AquaSport, and AquaFirm. They are advanced liquid wetting agent products specifically designed to optimize the watering regime, reduce disease pressure, and maintain your turf and playing surface's health throughout the year.
