MarketsandMarkets projects the global biodegradable mulch film market size to grow from USD 35.76 Million in 2016 to USD 52.43 Million by 2021, at a CAGR of 7.95% from 2016 to 2021. The growth of the biodegradable mulch film market can be attributed to the rising demand of biodegradable mulch films in greenhouse, increased applications in agriculture, and rising environmental concerns that shifted the focus of growers toward eco-friendly mulch films.
Mulching is a technique used to cover the soil surface around crops to create optimum conditions for crop growth. The usage of biodegradable mulch films is an eco-friendly mulching technique to carry out controlled agriculture on limited arable land, with limited irrigation. With the ability to self-degrade at the end of the cycle, it avoids the removal and disposal of plastic. Biodegradable mulch films, without having any adverse impact on environment, assist in improving crop quality and enhancing agricultural productivity by minimizing soil erosion, providing nutrients, increasing soil temperature, and suppressing the growth of weeds, among others.
Starch, in the biodegradable mulch film market, is projected to account for the largest value during the forecast period. The high demand of starch in the biodegradable mulch films market can be credited to its wide availability and low cost. Starch also degrades into harmless products when placed in contact with soil microorganisms. Additionally, it has high amylose content which helps in the formation of strong and flexible biodegradable mulch films. This has boosted the demand of starch in the biodegradable mulch film market.
The thermoplastic starch segment is projected to have the largest share in the biodegradable mulch film market. With the rising environmental issues related to the use of conventional synthetic polymers, growers have shifted their focus toward the adoption of biodegradable materials made from renewable resources. Thermoplastic starch being widely available, renewable, biodegradable, and economical has gained high demand in the biodegradable mulch films market.
The fruits & vegetables segment is estimated to have the largest value in the biodegradable mulch films market in 2015 and the current trend is expected to follow during the forecast period. The agricultural industry has recognized the visible benefits of biodegradable mulch films in reducing soil compaction, fertilizer leaching, moisture evaporation, weed problems, and increasing soil temperature to obtain higher yield and increase early growth in crops while providing the additional benefit of biodegrading, So, there is wide usage of biodegradable mulch films to ensure optimal growth of fruits & vegetables.
The Asia-Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest rate in the biodegradable mulch films market. China is on the top of the list in terms of sales of biodegradable mulch films. Increasing population, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, has resulted in increasing demand for food, which will lead to increased usage of biodegradable mulch films in crop production. The rising population and shrinking agricultural land due to industrialization and urbanization have compelled farmers to produce more in the same land holding. Hence, farmers are using biodegradable mulch films in large numbers owing to its lower impact on environment, while enhancing crop yield by reducing competitive weed pressure, maintaining soil moisture levels, and modulating soil temperature.
The high cost of installation of biodegradable mulch films is one of the key factors that restrict their implementation, primarily in developing nations. Despite the market having significant potential in developing nations such as India, the high initial cost has become a cause of concern for farmers. In addition, the machines used to level and shape the soil and apply the biodegradable mulch films add to the cost. The average land holding per farmer is decreasing gradually because of increasing population. This affects the purchasing power parity of farmers and lowers the sale of biodegradable mulch films. Thus, high investment in mulching becomes a limiting factor for the biodegradable mulch films market, especially in developing countries.
The biodegradable mulch films market is diversified and competitive, with a large number of players. The key players in the biodegradable mulch films market include BASF SE (Germany), Kingfa Sci & Tech Co Ltd (China), BioBag International AS (Norway), AEP Industries Inc. (U.S.), and RKW SE (Germany), while other players include British Polythene Industries PLC (U.K.), Armando Alvarez (Spain), Al-Pack Enterprises Ltd. (Canada), Novamont S.Pa. (Italy), and AB Rani Plast OY (Finland). These players have adopted various strategies to expand their global presence and increase their market share. Expansions, agreements, joint ventures, mergers & acquisitions, and new product launches & technological advancements are some of the major strategies adopted by the market players to achieve growth in the biodegradable mulch films market.
