U.S. Humic Acid Market Size, By Application, 2013 – 2024 (USD Million)
 

Rapidly growing global population and their nutritional demand decreased the arable land ratio to less than 0.2 hectares for a single person by 2013. As per a WHO report, world agricultural yield must be increased by at least 50% per hectare to meet the growing demand for food. By the end of 2030, global food demand will rise by 35% and majority of this demand must be met by increasing crop yield. Increasing product usage to provide adequate nutritional value to the agricultural land in order to promote sustainable farming will propel the global humic acid market in coming years. The product tends to improve the soil texture and water retention properties and promotes bio-activity of the soil to make it more fertile and productive. The shift of focus of agriculturists around the globe towards improving the soil productivity to mitigate crop losses and enhance agricultural outputs will positively influence the humic acid market demand.
 

Growing demand for organic food products will further enhance the global humic acid market in coming years. Farmers in the developed economies are gradually shifting towards organic farming and according to the Organic Trade Association (OTA) of the U.S., the organic food products sales reached close to USD 40 billion in 2015. This changing agricultural trend towards organic farming owing to rising awareness and increasing affordability of the population of developed countries will boost the overall humic acid market in the upcoming years.
 

Inconsistency in the product quality available under different commercial brand names may pose threats to the overall humic acid market growth in coming years. Studies reveal a significant variation in the sorption coefficients of the same substance based on the source of the humic material by a factor of ten. Lack of quality control by governing bodies based on their lignite sources, and other qualitative properties may decrease the humic acid market popularity among organic farmers throughout the globe.
