According to MarketsandMarkets, the agricultural pheromones market is projected to reach USD 9.6 billion by 2029 from 4.5 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 16.4% during the forecast period in terms of value. A number of variables influence the need for agricultural pheromones worldwide. Initially, there is a global shift away from chemical-intensive farming practices and a growing emphasis on sustainable agriculture practices. Agricultural pheromones provide a targeted, all-natural pest management strategy that lessens the need for toxic pesticides. In addition, farmers are looking for creative ways to maximize agricultural yields due to the growing world population and the necessity to increase food production. Pheromones are essential for enhancing pollination and elevating agricultural output. Regulatory demands and customer demands for pesticide-free produce have also accelerated the use of agricultural pheromones as a secure and environmentally friendly pest control method.
