The global ammonium nitrate market is expected
to reach USD 6.18 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View
Research, Inc. Superior stability and low nitrogen emission offered by the
product in crop protection chemicals is expected to drive the market growth.
At present, stringent
regulations related to transportation, storage, handling, and usage of ammonium
nitrate is forcing the manufacturers to opt out of the market. Moreover, the
profit margins are shrinking owing to rising substitutes including urea, which
further discourages the new entrants to invest in the market which is likely to
have a negative impact on the industry trend.
The industry has several
players, which are integrated across the value chain to manufacture raw
materials. Strong foothold of the existing players in the market is expected to
increase entry barrier of new players. In addition, the rivalry between
established producers is expected to increase on the account of low product
differentiation.
Rising penetration of
urea as a substitute for the product in fertilizer application is expected to
hamper the industry growth. However, the product offers the better efficiency
of nitrogen uptake and has low carbon footprints than urea, which is likely to
have a positive impact on the industry trends over the forecast period.
