Concise Analysis of the International Crop Protection Chemicals Market - Forecasts to 2016
M2 - Fri Mar 14, 5:26AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7mmltc/global_crop) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the International Crop Protection Chemicals Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering. Globally, biofuels are gaining importance due to increasing focus on sustainability. Bioethanol is the major biofuel, followed by biodiesel and biogas. The natural feedstocks for biofuels are grains such as rapeseed, rice, and wheat or crops such as sugarcane and corn. The demand for crop protection chemicals is also derived from the demand for biofuels. For instance, ethanol requires corn as a feedstock for its production; therefore, an increase in the demand for ethanol will lead to an increase in the production of corn, which in turn would result in an increase in the use of crop protection chemicals. According to the report, one of the major growth factors is the rising food demand due to the increase in world population. In addition, due to rapid urbanization, the ratio of the available arable land area to the world population is decreasing year by year. To meet this global food demand, there is an increased use of fertilizers and pesticides to enhance yield quality and efficiency. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is increasing pesticide resistance. Key Topics Covered: 1. Executive Summary 2. List of Abbreviations 3. Introduction 4.
