In 2024, Nigeria continued to rely heavily on imports of crop protection chemicals, with top exporters including China, India, France, Germany, and the UAE. Despite a concerning high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicating market concentration, the industry experienced a significant decline in compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -14.59% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate in 2024 alone plummeted by -28.24%, suggesting a challenging year for the sector. Stakeholders should closely monitor these trends and consider strategic adjustments to navigate the market dynamics effectively.

The Nigeria crop protection chemicals market is expanding, supported by the country`s agriculture sector`s efforts to increase crop yields and ensure food security. Crop protection chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, play a crucial role in controlling pests, diseases, and weeds that threaten crop productivity. With the adoption of modern farming practices, pest management strategies, and the introduction of genetically modified crops, the demand for crop protection chemicals is expected to rise, presenting opportunities for manufacturers and distributors in the market.
Growing demand for agricultural products drives the market for crop protection chemicals in Nigeria.
The crop protection chemicals market in Nigeria is constrained by high production costs, competition from imported chemicals, and regulatory challenges. Additionally, there is a lack of technical expertise and infrastructure to support the production and use of crop protection chemicals.
Agricultural pesticide regulations, crop safety standards, and environmental impact assessments influence the crop protection chemicals market.
