Dublin, July 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Bactericide Market Report 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The bactericide market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $9.54 billion in 2024 to $10.24 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%.
The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising global consumer demand for food, increased concerns about food security and quality, growing regulatory measures in the agricultural sector, a higher usage of bactericides, and the expanding demand in agriculture.
The bactericide market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.42 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The projected growth for the forecast period is driven by the rising need for effective solutions for improved soil protection, a surge in food demand, population growth, changing climatic conditions, and a growing demand for high-quality crops.
Key trends expected during this period include advancements in bactericide formulations, technological innovations in formulations, research in nanotechnology, expanding markets in developing regions, and the development of multifunctional products.
The rising food security and quality concerns are expected to significantly drive the growth of the bactericide market. As the global population continues to grow, the demand for food increases, which places additional pressure on agricultural systems to produce enough safe and nutritious food. Bactericides play a crucial role in addressing these issues by preventing bacterial infections in crops and food products. They help protect agricultural yields by controlling harmful bacteria that can damage plants, reducing crop losses, and ensuring a stable food supply. For instance, in January 2025, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that food insecurity affected 13.5% of U.S. households (18 million) in 2023, an increase from 12.8% (17 million) in 2022. This increase in food insecurity highlights the importance of bactericides in maintaining food security and quality.
Companies in the bactericide market are focusing on advancing biological crop protection methods, which provide sustainable solutions for disease control while reducing chemical residues and environmental impact. Biological crop protection products use natural organisms or plant-derived compounds, such as beneficial microbes or plant extracts, to control pests and diseases in an environmentally friendly manner.
For example, in October 2024, BioConsortia, Inc., a US-based biotechnology company, received approval from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US-EPA) for its Amara bio fungicide or bactericide. This product is designed to combat foliar diseases in high-value fruits and vegetables. Amara uses beneficial bacteria to produce antimicrobial compounds that degrade fungal pathogen cells and enhance plant systemic resistance, offering improved consistency and efficacy compared to existing biological products. The approval of Amara highlights BioConsortia's commitment to providing a sustainable alternative to synthetic chemical fungicides, with enhanced residue management and environmental stability.
In June 2022, Dhanuka Agritech, an India-based agrochemical company, partnered with Hokko Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. and Nippon Soda Co., Ltd. to launch Zanet, a dual-action fungicide and bactericide aimed at controlling diseases in tomato crops in India. This collaboration underscores the importance of advanced crop protection solutions to enhance food production and support sustainable agriculture practices.
