The scope of our recent study on the “Soil Fertility Testing Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Test Type (Physical, Chemical, and Biological); Method (Onsite and Offsite/Laboratory)” includes the factors governing the market growth, revenue estimation and forecast, and market share analysis along with the identification of significant market players and their key developments.

Soil fertility testing helps determine the growth potential of soil, indicating inadequacies of nutrients, potential toxicity caused by excessive fertility, and inhibitions due to non-essential trace minerals. Soil fertility testing has become widely accepted in the agriculture sector in the last few years for achieving higher field yields and revenues. Further, increasing population in the world, the rising availability of arable land, and the presence of a large number of soil fertility testing service providers are boosting the demand for soil fertility testing products and services.

SURGING DEMAND TO BOOST AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY IN DEVELOPING REGIONS INFLUENCE THE MARKET GLOBALLY

Improving and strengthening agricultural practices through increased investments and supportive government measures are mainstream in developing regions. The rising need of ensuring food security to support the demands of increasing population has propelled the adoption of soil fertility testing solutions and services in developing regions. For instance, the agrarian facilities in Africa are still in a developing phase, wherein crops are generally deprived of certain nutrients. Moreover, the continent has low access to soil fertility testing equipment and chemical fertilizers, which can be associated with their high costs. However, significant government investments in the agricultural sector, coupled with an increasing base of manufacturers in the region, are expected to boost the demand for soil fertility testing in the region. Further, rapid pace of urbanization, along with the growing concerns related to food security, has propelled the utilization of soil fertility testing to boost productivity in Asia Pacific. In addition, the positive government approach towards boosting the production and application of such techniques to maximize agricultural produce in the region has further accelerated the market growth. For instance, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) assists its Member States in developing and implementing nuclear-based technologies for increasing soil fertility practices, thereby boosting crop intensification and natural resource conservation.

Based on test type, the soil fertility testing market is segmented into physical, chemical, and biological. The chemical segment held the largest share in the market in 2020. Chemical soil tests have emerged as a monitoring tool for avoiding excessive nutrient input to the farm system. These tests help determine the concentration of essential plant nutrients such as phosphorus, nitrogen, potassium, available lime, organic matter, sulfur, and trace elements as well as other physical properties such as capacity, permeability, density, and pH. Further, the soil chemical testing assists in the optimization of crop production, protection of the environment from contamination caused by runoff and leaching of excess fertilizers, diagnosis of plant culture problems, and enhancement of nutritional balance of the growing media.

The companies in this market have been continuously focusing on strategies such as product developments, plant expansions, and mergers and acquisitions to expand their footprint worldwide and fulfil the growing demand of the market.

Some of the major key players operating in the global soil fertility testing industry includes SGS SA; Eurofins Scientific; ALS Limited; Agrolab GMBH; Actlabs; Agrocares; Waters Agricultural Laboratories Inc.; Polytest Laboratories; Crop Nutrition Laboratory Services Ltd.; and A and L Great Lakes. The major players in the soil fertility testing industry are focusing on strategies such as mergers and acquisitions and research and development to increase the geographical presence and consumer base globally.

The soil fertility testing market is segmented into five main regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), Middle East & Africa (MEA), and South America (SAM). In 2020, Europe accounted for the largest market share. The market growth in the region is attributed to the existence of stringent food safety, environmental, and agricultural regulations as well as enforcement of laws pertaining to the nutritional content, chemicals, and labeling. In addition, the better availability of arable land and presence of a large number of soil fertility testing service providers is also boosting the market growth in the region. In January 2021, Agrocares and Blue Fifty Scanner, its local partner as well as a representative of SoilCares in Poland, introduced their scanner packages to the Polish market. The scanner in combination with smartphone apps allow the users to test pH and soil texture, and send practical lime recommendations in 10 minutes. It will also be able to measure N, P, and K as well as provide fertilizer recommendations.
