Clomazone Market Overview

The Global Clomazone Market reached USD 408.5 million in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 507.9 million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 2.3% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

The widespread usage of clomazone in weed management systems is due to its lower price and potent annual grass control. Clomazone can be used to successfully manage problematic species such as broadleaf signalgrass (Urochloa platyphylla) and barnyard grass. Additionally, the prevalence of barnyard grass resistant to quinclorac and Propanol has increased the usage of clomazone significantly for weed control in rice. The expansion of the clomazone market during the forecast period will be driven by the demand for rice on a worldwide scale.

 Further, when used at the recommended rates for rice, clomazone offers better control of grasses but is ineffective against broadleaf and sedge species. According to the USDA, the United States produced 191.8 million hundredweight (cwt) of rough rice in 2021, a 16 percent decrease from 2020 but a little improvement over the harvest in 2019. A better way to enhance crop output, which will spur the expansion of the clomazone market, is needed as a result of the drop in production.

Clomazone Market Dynamics and Trends

Increasing Demand For Herbicide

There is a huge need for new Herbicide modes of action (MOAs) due to the weeds' increasing development of resistance to currently available commercial herbicides. Due to its affordability and efficacy in controlling several agricultural herbicides, such as broadleaved and grass weeds in weeds in soybean, cotton, rice, sugarcane, tobacco, peppers, and pumpkin, this requirement has generated a need for clomazone. It is a member of the chemical class isoxazole and has a wide range of weed-controlling effects when used before or shortly after the emergence of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants.

Additionally, agriculture will need to become more effective as the global population rises, necessitating new strategies for elevating meal production. According to projections, a better way to feed the 9.1 billion human beings that might be residing in the world by way of 2050, the global meal output could increase by approximately 70% between 2005 and 2007. Production ought to nearly triple within the developing nations so that it will gain this. This suggests that the output of some critical commodities will upward thrust substantially. For example, the FAO predicted that the once-a-year cereal manufacturing might want to increase with the aid of approximately 1,000 million tonnes. Due to the want for these products, the clomazone market will increase during the forecast period.

Government Regulations Supported to Clomazone Market

Governments all over the world are relying on herbicides to strengthen their agriculture sectors since clomazone is a selective herbicide used largely to control weeds in crops like soybeans, cotton, and peanuts.

For instance, government policies like India's Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) would aid in the expansion of the agricultural industry. All farmer families nationwide would get an income assistance of Rs. 6000/- per year under the Scheme in three equal installments of Rs. 2000/- every four months, allowing the farmers to concentrate more on their cultivation. The market for clomazone will expand along with the expansion of the agriculture industry.

Adverse Effect of Using Herbicide

In rice fields, where amphibian species reside, clomazone is a common herbicide. As a result, non-target exposure might put such species in danger. However, nanoparticles are being created to be employed as a mechanism for transporting agrochemicals. These nanoparticles are thought to be more effective and less hazardous to the environment because they modify how the herbicide is released.

Further, The Chinese Journal of Eco-Agriculture released a study on the effects of clomazone and its combination on weeds in soybean fields and the following crops. According to the findings of the experiment, clomazone(36CS) has a clear controlling impact on gramineous weeds but is ineffective against certain latifoliate weeds in soybean fields. While the combination of clomazone and chlorimuron-ethyl is successful in eliminating both gramineous and latifoliate weeds, it has an adverse effect on plant height, ear setting height, and the length of the ear without grains of maize. Albinism in maize seedlings can be brought on by clomazone and its combination.

Clomazone Market Segment Analysis

The global clomazone market is segmented based on type, crop, formulations, distribution channel, stage of application and region.

Demanded  for Spray Form  Solution

Since its wetting component retains the herbicides of the targeted weed until destruction takes place, the liquid suspension has seen a substantial increase in popularity on the clomazone market. Under the influence of UV light, liquid herbicides that have been sprayed on the ground or applied as liquid suspensions will evaporate or deteriorate. On weeds, this lessens the biocontrol agents' uptake and transmission. The targeted weed's bioherbicides are trapped by the synergistic impact of surfactant as a wetting agent until the weed is destroyed. The molecules at the liquid's surface are in general more energetic than those inside. An ideal contact angle and surface tension are produced by surfactants, which also create optimum wetting efficiency.

Additionally, farmers and other agricultural experts often select herbicide formulations depending on how well they control the target weeds. Depending on how well it outperforms other formulations in weed management, there may or may not be a market for clomazone in a liquid suspension.

Clomazone Market Geographical Penetration

Europe Dominates the Clomazone Market

The regulation and use of agricultural chemical compounds, specifically herbicides, are concern to strict rules in the European Union. There won't be as many products on the market as there can be because the approval system for energetic components and formulations may be stringent. However, if legal, these products are frequently seen as safe and can have sizable market demand.

Agriculture-related environmental and safety concerns have traditionally received more attention in Europe. To be used, clomazone, like other herbicides, must pass stringent safety and environmental requirements, which may have an impact on market share. On September 7, 2022, Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 540/2011 will be amended in Europe in relation to the lengthening of the approval periods for the active ingredient clomazone. These extensions of approvals will fuel the expansion of the clomazone industry throughout the upcoming years.

COVID-19 Impact on Clomazone Market

COVID Impact 

The clomazone herbicide company operations, like many other sectors, has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic in a variety of ways. Herbicide availability and distribution were initially impacted by supply chain interruptions, lockdowns, and travel restrictions. Herbicide spraying schedules were impacted, and this caused logistical difficulties for producers as well as farmers.

The epidemic also impacted labor availability by limiting the mobility of seasonal agricultural laborers. As a result, questions were raised regarding the timely use of herbicides. Aside from that, economic uncertainty led some farmers to reevaluate their spending plans and maybe cut back on pesticide use to save money. The need for herbicides like clomazone, which farmers used to preserve their crops and provide food security, remained mostly consistent as the agricultural sector, which was crucial, continued to function.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact

The market for clomazone has also been considerably impacted through the Russia-Ukraine conflict. A common herbicide in agriculture is clomazone, which is used to manipulate weeds in crops along with cotton, soybeans, and maize. Russia and Ukraine are both extensive actors in the global agriculture zone, and the prevention inside the place has hampered clomazone manufacturing and output.

In addition, one of the war's immediate effects has been an interruption in the clomazone supply. Russia and Ukraine are both significant manufacturers of the chemicals and raw materials required to make this pesticide. Clomazone shortages and price rises are a result of transportation routes being affected by the conflict.
