UAE Agrochemicals Market Outlook

the agrochemicals market in the united arab emirates (uae) has been witnessing rapid growth due to the expanding base of farmers and crop producers, especially in the northern emirates. the agricultural sector in the country is increasingly becoming more professional, as the country seeks to develop a secure, stable and reliable food supply through advanced technology and farming techniques. the rise in demand for high-quality agrochemicals in the uae can be attributed to the nation's strategic focus on the agriculture sector. the government has introduced several incentives and initiatives geared towards improving the capabilities of local farming systems to ensure that the farming sector remains competitive. for instance, the national feed stock initiative (nsi) was launched in 2017 to promote the use of high-quality feed additives and other agrochemicals. in order to ensure the quality of the products in the uae market, the uae's ministry of climate change and environment (moccae) requires all agrochemicals imported in the country to be registered and have certificate of analysis (coa), manufacturer's declaration, and manufacturer's data report (mdr). additionally, the ministry has established stringent regulations and standards to ensure the safety and efficacy of the agrochemicals used. in terms of application, the agrochemicals market in the uae is strongly driven by demand for fertilizers and pesticides. the use of fertilizers is expanding in the country due to the increasing demand for high-yielding crop varieties, while the use of pesticides is also growing as a result of the increasing prevalence of diseases and pests. the uae agrochemicals market is expected to experience a boost in the forecast period (2018 to 2032). efforts by the government to improve agricultural production across the country are likely to significantly drive demand for agrochemicals. in addition, increasing life expectancy, rising population, and urbanization will also drive demand for agrochemicals in the forecast period. thus, the uae agrochemicals market is anticipated to witness significant growth in the forecast period.
