The Global Fungicides Market reached US$ 20.4 billion in 2022 and is projected to witness lucrative growth by reaching up to US$ 33.7 billion by 2030. The market is growing at a CAGR of 6.5 % during the forecast period 2023-2030.
Fungicides are chemical compounds used to kill or prevent fungi's growth, including dithiocarbamates, benzimidazoles, triazoles, strobilurins, and carboxamides. Biological fungicides are living organisms or their derivatives that can control fungal diseases, and they contribute to the Global Fungicides Market Size.
Contact fungicides are applied directly to the plant's surface, while the plant absorbs systemic fungicides and provides protection throughout the tissue, resulting in lucrative sales in the fungicide market revenue. In addition, protective fungicides create a barrier on the plant's surface to prevent fungal spores from germinating and infecting the plant, and these products also have significant sales in the global fungicides market revenue.

The Introduction of New and Innovative Fungicide Products
The cultivation of fruits and vegetables is expanding in response to changes in global food structures and cropping patterns, leading to a growing demand for fungicides with innovative active ingredients. For instance, on November 10, 2022, FMC Corporation launched three modes of action foliar fungicide targeting late-season diseases – adastri fungicide.
In addition, FMC Corporation's fluindapyr, was approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 2021 for use in specialty crops and turfs. With strobilurin fungicides facing increasing disease resistance, manufacturers are prioritizing the development of strobilurin-based products in combination with other ingredients to improve efficacy and overcome resistance challenges.
The Global Fungicides Market is segmented based on origin, mode of application, form, product, crop type and region.
Grains & Cereals Segment Accounts for the Highest Share in Global Fungicides Market
The consumption of fungicide products is highest in the grains & cereals segment, which can be attributed to their increased application rate per hectare and the large areas harvested for crops such as corn, wheat, and rice - staple food items in regions such as America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
As the demand for these cereal crops increases, so does the need for fungal pesticide products that protect against diseases and pests. For instance, The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported a total production of 8358190.79 tons of cereals in 2021, highlighting the need for innovative fungicidal crop protection products.

Top of Form
Asia-Pacific is the Dominating Region During the Forecast Period.
By region, the Global Fungicides Market is segmented into North America, South America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle-East and Africa.
In 2022, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of approximately 32.9% and is projected to experience the highest growth rate during the forecast period. This region has an agrarian economy, and countries such as India, Indonesia, Thailand, South Korea, and Japan are highly dependent on crop yields each year. As a result, there is a significant demand for crop protective chemicals like fungicides and pesticides. For instance, on July 21, 2022, Rallis India launched two new fungicides, CAPSTONE and ZAAFU formulations.
However, governments in these countries are encouraging modern farming, in which farmers are educated on various factors such as chemical usage, crop type, soil conditions, and periodic application of fungicides. This approach is expected to significantly impact crop output with lower investment.

Covid Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic has negative impact on the global fungicides market. The restrictions on movement and lockdowns have disrupted the supply chain and production of fungicides, leading to shortages in some regions. Additionally, the reduced availability of labor in many countries has impacted agricultural practices, leading to lower demand for fungicides.
However, the pandemic has also highlighted the importance of maintaining food security, leading to increased demand for fungicides to protect crops from fungal diseases and maintain yield. Moreover, the increased awareness of personal hygiene and cleanliness due to the pandemic has increased demand for antifungal products in the healthcare sector.
