Market Overview (2017-2027)
- Forecast CAGR (2022-2027): 3%
The growing need to improve crop production to meet the rising population needs is driving the industry growth of agricultural films and bonding. In this regard, the increasing greenhouse farming to yield disease-free genetically superior and protect the crops from external threats is also contributing to the industry’s steady growth. The advantages of mulch films, such as reducing weed growth, evaporative water losses, and the need for pesticides or fertilisers while also improving plant growth, is further augmenting the market. Moreover, the utilisation of silage films to help livestock farmers produce long-lasting and nutritious fodder is invigorating the industry. The Food and Agriculture Organisation brings forth that the demand for silage films will increase from 6.1 million tonnes in 2018 to 9.5 million tonnes in 2030. All these factors are providing impetus to the market growth.
Industry Definition and Major Segments
Agricultural films are mainly made of polyethene (PE), a common plastic and other biodegradable materials. They are placed on the ground before sowing to prevent the growth of weeds, provide soil fertilisation, and offers many benefits to farmers. The choice of the agricultural films depends on the weather conditions and the crop management techniques used. Bonding is the joining of two or more films to strengthen and shape films.
