According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Regenerative Agriculture Market is accounted for $8.7 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $21.1 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 16.0% during the forecast period. Regenerative agriculture is an agricultural system that enhances the resources it uses rather than diminishing or destroying them. A lot of focus is focused on looking at the agro-ecosystem holistically, and a number of methodologies are used. Regenerative methods also boost soil fertility by planting cover crops between seasons, using crop rotations, and spreading composting and manure from animals, all of which replenish the soil's microbiome with essential nutrients. Synthetic fertilisers employed in conventional farming have disrupted the structure and function of these soil microbial communities.
According to the Rodale Institute, one of the growing numbers of organizations advocating regenerative agriculture approach as a great deal of emphasis is placed on looking holistically at the agro-ecosystem, with a variety of techniques being employed.
To reduce the carbon footprint of agricultural activities while increasing agricultural productivity to meet the growing need for food, governments around the world are promoting sustainable agriculture practises. It is primarily based on biomass recycling on the farm, with an emphasis on biomass mulching, the use of cow dung-urine formulations on the farm, periodic soil aeration, and the avoidance of any synthetic chemical inputs. Many of the regenerative farming methods used in the United States are supported by USDA conservation programmes such as the Environmental Quality Incentives Programme. The 2023 farm bill is expected to hasten the transition to a more resilient, just, and regenerative food and agriculture system thus encouraging the growth of the market.
Farmers and ranchers run complex businesses in a risky, low-margin, and constantly changing business environment, which keeps them very busy. Learning about and trying with new management tactics is a rigorous and time-consuming process as a result of this reality. Furthermore, due to the market's unpredictability, there is little room for innovation or deviation. Farmers manage their companies based on their knowledge of the land, collective wisdom, and experience. A lack of regional research, combined with other constraints, may stymie extension expansion in support of regenerative practises. As a result, market expansion is stifled which hindered the growth of the market.
There is an increasing amount of study being conducted on the usage of biological containing bacteria, which, when employed as a seed coating, can aid to boost carbon sequestration. Microbial carbon sequestration, for example, is one of the most important scientific endeavours of the twenty-first century, according to soil carbon co. It provides a straightforward solution to two of our most pressing issues climate change caused by growing CO2 levels in the atmosphere, as well as deteriorating soil fertility and resilience globally. When compared to other carbon sequestration techniques, microbial activities are by far the most effective method of capturing carbon. There are no additional tools, space, or energy required for the sequestration process thus creating wide range of opportunities for the growth of the market.
Upstream demand is volatile, and consumers are reticent to pay more for items created with environmentally friendly practises. The structural architecture that surrounds large-scale agriculture and tends to favour commodity systems and large-scale monoculture is claimed to be the country's most serious single problem in the majority of areas. Without the appropriate local and regional infrastructure, producers are forced to take on many links or whole supply chains to get their products to market, from manufacturing to processing and packaging to market development, sales, and distribution. Many farmers are attempting to maximise revenue streams and or accomplish environmental goals while also bringing several items to market, increasing the complexity and number of manufacturing collaborators they must manage.
The development and spread of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has caused an imbalance in all industries throughout the world, causing tremendous disruption to the global economy. Social segregation, quarantine measures, and tight travel restrictions have resulted in a significant decline in the workforce and employment losses across all industrial sectors. Agriculture and food were two of the industries that were entirely exposed. The government's imposition of a statewide lockdown resulted in the global suspension of industry, affecting the whole supply chain from farmer to consumer.
The agroforestry segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to its resilient and sustainable agriculture practise has the potential to aid in the resolution of the climate crisis. This novel farming system improves food security for growing people while also restoring the environment, minimising climate change, preserving biodiversity, and enabling commercially viable output. It is a low-cost, nature-based practise that may be applied everywhere on the planet. Agroforestry landscapes also provide numerous corridors for species to traverse across habitats, which is essential for feeding and breeding thereby driving the market.
The biodiversity segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to various regenerative agricultural practises, such as no-tillage, cover crop planting, and buffer strip planting, among others, contribute to increased biodiversity. Other benefits of biodiversity include a safe and clean water supply, soil protection, nutrient recovery, feed and fertiliser provision, the availability of wood products, a greater variety of wildlife, future resources and their protection, and assistance in maintaining appropriate climatic conditions.
North America is projected to hold the highest market share during the forecast period owing to growing corporate support for sustainable agriculture, as well as the existence of key market players, are projected to drive market expansion over the forecast period. For example, Danone North America, a food and beverage corporation with a diverse variety of dairy and plant-based products will extend its regenerative farming programme, which is currently the most extensive regenerative farming dairy programme in the United States.
Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to Due to the existence of huge agricultural area and a big population, Asia Pacific is expected to expand at a rapid rate over the projected period. Furthermore, rising government initiatives to promote innovative agricultural techniques, combined with increased awareness about soil improvement, are expected to create lucrative opportunities for market growth in the coming years.
