However, there was a slight decrease in growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -2.64%. The market dynamics and competitive landscape in the glyphosate sector in the Philippines remain dynamic and continue to be influenced by these key exporting countries.
Philippines Glyphosate Market Synopsis
The Philippines glyphosate market was majorly driven by the adoption of genetically modified (GM) technology with the amount of acreage increasing by approximately 31.2% annually. The increasing popularity of herbicide-tolerant GM crops has contributed to an increase in the demand for glyphosate as it is the preferred herbicide for weed management. In 2020, the glyphosate market witnessed a decline due to the global pandemic leading to a total economic shutdown and a temporary halt in major operations in many sectors to curb the spread of the virus, however With an ease in trade restrictions market has back to its pre COVID growth trajectory. Further, the Philippine Association of Feed Millers Inc. is planning a National Corn Development Program, which covers the entire value chain and focuses on reducing its dependence on imports and is further projecting local corn produce for feeds to reach 7.56 million metric tons by 2023 which would contribute to the glyphosate demand in the future as farmers would use more herbicides to grow crop faster and increase crop production.
According to 6Wresearch, the Philippines Glyphosate Market size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% during 2023-2029F. In the Philippines, currently, more than 27.5 million people are engaged in agriculture, and it generates 9.6% of the country's GDP on average, thereby agriculture sector plays a vital role in country's growth, and crop production is expected to grow substantially, the demand for glyphosate would increase to control weeds and grasses that could negatively impact crop yields. Glyphosate has faced scrutiny and debate globally due to concerns about its potential impact on the environment and human health and the use of glyphosate is subject to regulations under government agencies, such as the Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority (FPA).
