UAE Fertilizer Market Research Report, 2027

Agriculture accounts for almost 4% of the total GDP of the UAE, including fisheries and livestock management. The majority of the crop vegetables produced in the country of the UAE includes cauliflower, cabbage, eggplant, squash, and tomatoes. In addition to that, the major fruit crops consist of dates, mangoes, and citrus. All of these wide varieties of agricultural production have only one thing in common, which is that they use fertilisers in their production process to sustain the growth of plants. All of these plants need fertiliser to increase their product quality, meaning they need to have rich nutrient content with low toxicity within them. The use of fertiliser is very important not only to the plants but the consumers of such products, which are humans, animals, and other industries that use these crops as primary products. Higher nutritional value yields a higher end result for the consumer. This is the reason the fertiliser market is a huge market globally and is important for every country’s productivity. The fertiliser market consists of three different segments, which are by nutrients; by product; and by application. All of these segments have many different categories within them. According to the research report titled, "UAE Fertilizer Market Research Report, 2027", published by Actual Market Research, the UAE fertiliser market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 4.85% and reach the production of around 3 million metric tonnes of fertiliser by the year 2027. According to the types of nutrients, the market has categories of nitrogenous, phosphatic, potash, and complex fertilizers, all of which consist of different nutrients that fulfil different biological requirements. The biggest sub-segment is that of the nitrogenous fertilisers in the market, with around 50% of the market share in the year of 2021. These fertilisers are so popular because nitrogen is one of the most crucial elements needed by plants to grow and develop correctly. These fertilisers contain nitrogen in absorbable forms of nitrates along with some other compounds. These kinds of fertilisers are generally easy to apply and hence can be preferred by the consumer. These different types of nutrients in the market come in many different types of product forms, which are AS, Urea, CAN/AN, DAP, MAP, MOP/KCL, Complex, and the other segment, which consists of products like phosphate rocks, UAN, and ammonium anhydrous. All of these products are used for different requirements on the basis of the plant, the climate and yield management. DAP, MAP, and urea are some of the major fertiliser categories in the product segment, with DAP coming out on top in the country of UAE. These kinds of fertilisers are widely used due to the fact that they contain high levels of nitrogen and phosphorous within them, which are the primary macro nutrients and part of the 18-essential plant nutrients for growth. The third segment of application type is categorised by the type of produce they are used on. These categories include vegetables & fruits, cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, and the other segment, which includes crops like cotton and jute. Around 75% of the total market in the country used fertilisers for the purpose of producing vegetables and fruits. This is because the country heavily produces dates and some other vegetables, which are consumed domestically and exported to other countries. In the year of 2021, the country exported dates valued at around USD 140 million, which contributes to partially justifying the market share of the vegetable and fruit category in the country.

This market has experienced growth in the UAE due to many different factors, with the sector in the country forming strategic partnerships with the organisations involved in agricultural and environmental development fields. followed by the increasing investment in the market to make the production of these fertilisers more green, which is in response to the sustainable consumer trends moving towards organic products. The market’s expansion in the UAE was aligned with the 2050 strategy for a greener economy, which was launched earlier. Concurrent with these positive effects, the market also experienced some setbacks for different reasons. Fertilizer production uses huge amounts of chemicals, which are an area of concern as these chemicals have faced issues in the supply chain along with fluctuations in prices due to uneven manufacturing due to the pandemic. Another component of the chemical use is that it needs to be regulated properly, for which the country is currently renewing its policies, which causes instability in the market among the producers and sellers. The COVID-19 impacted the market not just on the chemical front but on the manufacturing of the fertilisers itself. Along with issues in raw material supply, the market also experienced inconsistent human resources and time-to-time lockdowns. These measures taken to stop the spread of the virus also stopped the growth of many markets with it.
