Pesticides Procurement Category Market Research Report from IBISWorld has Been Updated
PRWeb - Tue Aug 19, 1:00AM CDT
Pesticides have a buyer power score of 3.4 out of 5. This score reflects moderate negotiating conditions for buyers. IBISWorld business research analyst Pierre Dessertenne says, "despite the high buyer power score, this market has undergone a significant amount of change over the past three years as pesticide development has clashed with buyer sentiment concerning the potentially harmful effects of chemicals and toxins applied to buildings, homes and produce." Prices have grown slightly during the three years to 2014 but were kept in check by the growing popularity of alternatives, such as genetically modified organism (GMOs) and more ecofriendly pesticides. Buyers in this market face some risk from the high volatility of raw material inputs and the effects of annual rainfall. Major vendors in the market include Dow Chemical, DuPont, Bayer AG and Nufarm.
