不同施用方式的采用在很大程度上取决于作物的生长阶段和杂草种类。

• 非洲农业部门面临许多挑战，其中杂草是主要威胁。该地区的集约化农业实践、犁地和主要作物的单一栽培导致各种杂草种类的繁殖并阻碍了作物的生长。由于各种社会经济因素，农民使用不同的施用方法施用除草剂，以更好地控制杂草并促进作物生长。
• 除草剂的土壤处理施用方式大多被农民采用作为预防措施，在杂草生长初期进行控制，从而进一步减少除草剂的使用量和生产成本。预计预测期内该应用模式的市值将成长1.531亿美元。
• 叶面施用除草剂是第二常用的施用方式，也是控制各种作物阔叶杂草的常用传统做法。预计预测期内叶面喷布的使用量将会成长，市场成长额将达到 1.004 亿美元。
• 日益严重的水资源短缺和微灌系统的进步为化学灌溉模式的兴起提供了立足点，这种模式统一使用化学除草剂来更好地控制杂草。预计2023年至2029年间化学灌溉模式市场将成长5,440万美元。
• 由于存在喷雾漂移和对人体潜在危害等相关风险，除草剂的熏蒸采用受到限制。另一方面，它已被证明能够渗透到土壤中并有效控制杂草。
• 由于杂草侵染日益严重，该地区除草剂市场规模预计在预测期内将增加 3.123 亿美元。

传统除草方法带来的风险增加了该地区对除草剂的需求。

• 非洲的农业部门集中在南非、衣索比亚、奈及利亚、埃及和肯亚等国家。农业是最重要的部门之一，大多数人口从事农业。该产业对撒哈拉以南非洲地区 GDP 的贡献率为 14% 左右。在各种生物挑战中，杂草对农业部门构成了重大威胁。传统的杂草管理方法费时、昂贵、费力，导致农民采用除草剂作为主要的杂草控制方法。
• 历史时期，除草剂的消费量大幅增加。 2017 年为 162,000 吨，到 2022 年将增加至 198,100 吨。消费量的成长主要是由于杂草侵染的增加和​​除草剂使用量的增加。平均而言，杂草每年在非洲造成高达25％的产量损失。产量损失的增加将进一步推动除草剂消费量在 2023 年至 2029 年间增加 9,611 吨。
• 谷物和谷类作物生产者在种植过程中主要使用化学除草剂，2022 年占 45.1%。这些作物占主导地位的主要原因是种植面积大，单一栽培有利于各种杂草的生长。这种杂草可能导致该地区谷类作物产量高达 34%。因此，这些作物中除草剂的使用量很高。
• 该地区除草剂市场预计在预测期内实现 4.1% 的复合年增长率，解决与其他除草方法相关的问题。

非洲除草剂市场趋势

该地区对粮食和高作物产量的需求不断增长，将推动除草剂市场的发展

• 近年来，非洲除草剂的使用量明显增加。除草剂消费量大幅增加，反映出农业实践和杂草控制对除草剂的需求不断增长。 2017年至2022年间，非洲每公顷除草剂消费量将大幅增加89.3%。这种激增可以归因于农民对除草剂益处的认识不断提高，以及他们提高单位土地农业生产率的愿望。市场上各种除草剂的广泛供应在鼓励增加除草剂的使用方面发挥关键作用。
• 持续广泛地使用单一除草剂或有限数量的除草剂，而没有进行适当的轮作和多样化，可能会产生抗性杂草种群。随着时间的推移，这些抗性杂草将占据主导地位，降低除草剂控制的有效性。轮换使用不同作用方式的除草剂有助于防止抗性杂草占据主导地位。 2022 年，在南非发现了最常见的苋菜（Amaranthus palmeri，俗称帕尔默苋菜）Glyphosate抗性机制。Glyphosate是一种常用于多种作物除草的农药。然而，Glyphosate抗性杂草的出现对成功控制杂草构成了重大障碍。
• 非洲不断增长的粮食需求迫切需要提高农业生产力。除草剂透过减少作物损失对提高农业产量做出了巨大贡献。为了满足人口的粮食需求，人们对除草剂的依赖性不断增加。

Adoption of various application modes majorly depends upon the crop growth stage and weed type

• Africa's agricultural sector is facing various challenges, among which weeds are becoming a major threat to the sector. The region's intensive agricultural practices, no-tillage, and monoculture practices in major crops help various weed species to grow and hamper crop growth. Due to various socio-economic factors, farmers implement herbicide application through different application modes for better weed management and enhanced crop growth.
• The herbicide soil treatment application mode is majorly adopted by farmers as a precaution to control weeds in their early growth stages, which reduces further herbicide use and production costs. The market value for this application mode is expected to increase by USD 153.1 million during the forecast period.
• Foliar herbicide application is the next most adopted application mode and common traditional practice for controlling broadleaf weeds in various crops, which is effective in rapid action by targeting the weed species. The use of the foliar method is expected to grow during the forecast period, accounting for a market value growth of USD 100.4 million.
• Increasing water shortages and advancements in micro-irrigation systems help in the rise of the chemigation mode, which provides the uniform distribution of chemical herbicide applications for better weed management. The market for the chemigation mode will grow by USD 54.4 million during 2023-2029.
• The adoption of herbicide fumigation is limited due to its associated risks, such as spray drift and potential harm to human health. On the other hand, it has been found to effectively control weeds by penetrating the soil and other areas.
• The herbicide market in the region is expected to grow by USD 312.3 million during the forecast period, driven by the increasing weed infestations.

The risk associated with the traditional weeding methods is increasing the need for herbicides in the region

• The African agricultural sector is majorly concentrated in countries like South Africa, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Egypt, and Kenya. Agriculture is one of the most important sectors, and the majority of the population works in it. The sector contributes around 14% to Sub-Saharan Africa's GDP. Among various biotic and abiotic challenges, weeds are becoming a major threat to the agricultural sector. Traditional weed management practices are associated with being time-consuming, becoming more expensive, and needing more labor, and these factors divert farmers to adopt herbicides as a primary method for weed control.
• There was a significant growth in herbicide consumption during the historical period. In 2017, it was 162.0 thousand metric ton, which increased to 198.1 thousand metric ton in 2022. The consumption growth is majorly attributed to the increasing weed infestations and rise in herbicide adoption. On average, every year, weeds are causing yield loss of up to 25% in Africa. The increasing yield losses further drive the herbicide consumption growth by 9,611 metric ton during 2023-2029.
• Grain and cereal crop growers are majorly utilizing chemical herbicides in their cultivation, which accounted for 45.1% in 2022. The dominance of these crops is mainly due to their higher cultivation area and monoculture agriculture practices favoring various weed species to grow. Weeds cause a potential yield loss of up to 34% to cereals crops in the region. This resulted in higher utilization of herbicides in these crops.
• The herbicide market in the region is projected to register a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period, which will solve the problems associated with other methods of weed management.

Africa Herbicide Market Trends

Rising food demand in the region coupled with need for high productivity of the crops will drive the herbicide market

• In recent years, the use of herbicides in Africa has experienced a notable surge. There has been a substantial increase in the consumption of herbicides, reflecting a growing demand for these products in agricultural practices and weed management. From 2017 to 2022, herbicide consumption per hectare in Africa witnessed a significant growth of 89.3%. This upsurge can be attributed to the increased awareness among farmers regarding the advantages of herbicides and their desire to enhance agricultural productivity per unit of land. The wide availability of diverse herbicides in the market has played a significant role in driving the upswing in herbicide usage.
• Continuous and extensive use of a single herbicide or a limited set of herbicides without proper rotation or diversification can lead to the selection of resistant weed populations. Over time, these resistant weeds dominate the landscape, making herbicides less effective in controlling them. Rotation of herbicides with different modes of action to prevent the dominance of resistant weed populations. The most prevalent glyphosate resistance mechanism in Amaranthus palmeri, commonly known as palmer amaranth, was seen in the Republic of South Africa in 2022. Glyphosate is a frequently used pesticide for weed management in a variety of crops. However, the rise of glyphosate-resistant weed populations offers a considerable obstacle to successful weed control.
• Africa's rising food demand has led to a determined push to boost agricultural productivity. Herbicides contribute significantly to increased agricultural yields by lowering crop losses. The necessity to fulfill the population's food requirements drives the reliance on herbicides.

Heavy reliance on herbicide products and changing regulations on import tariffs on herbicides are leading to fluctuating active ingredient prices in the region

• In the African agriculture sector, weeds have emerged as a substantial threat, leading to yield losses of up to 34% in cereals and staple food crops. To address this issue, farmers heavily rely on chemical herbicides for effective weed control, as alternative methods like hand weeding and mechanical weeding have become cost-prohibitive due to labor shortages and rising wages.
• Metribuzin is a herbicide for control of various annual broadleafs and grasses in crops like maize, carrots, tomatoes, beetroot, asparagus, turnip, soybeans, brassicas, cucurbits, onions, peas, beans, wheat, lettuce, tobacco, and strawberries. The price of metribuzin was recorded as USD 16,580.9 per metric ton in 2022, which was 31.3% more than in 2017. This price increase is majorly attributed to the rising demand and unavailability as it is imported from other non-African countries. South Africa is the major importing country, and it imports metribuzin from India.
• Atrazine is the predominant herbicide utilized in maize-producing nations such as South Africa and Nigeria, with approximately 88% of the maize area relying on atrazine for weed control. Its application extends to numerous terrestrial food crops, non-food crops, forests, residential turf, golf courses, recreational areas, and rangelands, making it a widely adopted weed control measure on farms. Due to its expanding usage across different crops, the price of atrazine has been consistently rising each year. In 2022, it experienced a growth of USD 3,292.7 per metric ton compared to the price recorded in 2017.
• Glyphosate is extensively adopted as the region's second most prevalent herbicide, mainly owing to its cost-effectiveness. As of 2022, the price of glyphosate's active ingredient was recorded at USD 1,143.2 per metric ton.
