About Fertilzer market---
The use of fertilizers is of fundamental importance for this yield increase, also due to the fact that most of Brazilian soils have acidic pH, which inhibits the absorption of nutrients from the soil by plants. Hence also the importance of the use of acidic correctives such as limestone that increase soil pH and, in addition to providing plant nutrients such as Ca and Mg.
Brazil imports 75% of the fertilizer consumption and is the 4th largest fertilizer consumer behind China, India and the United States. In 2017, fertilizer consumption was 34.439 million tons, up 1% from the previous year, with an average annual growth of 4%, compared to 2% of the global average.
As in the pesticide market, the fertilizer market (NPK) is highly concentrated, where four companies hold 80% of the market.
In the country's largest grain producing region, including soybean, the Cerrado, with more than 25 million hectares of cultivated land, micronutrient deficiency in soils (zinc, copper and manganese) is one of the limiting factors for increasing agricultural yields. Thus the proper use of micronutrients, mainly as in foliar application, becomes a highly efficient tool for grains, cereals as well as for vegetables and fruits.
Unlike the NPK fertilizer and pesticide markets, more than 700 players compete in the segment of crop nutrition which sales in 2017 reached US$ 2.2, a 23% increase over 2016 (based on Real, Brazilian local currency), equivalent to 4.8 million tons, mainly for soybeans, corn, fruits and vegetables.
