Copper Fungicides Market size valued at USD 290 million in 2022 and is poised to depict more than 6.5% CAGR between 2023 and 2032. Growing concerns associated with food insecurity and the increasing pressure on agriculture sectors will create lucrative demand for copper fungicides.
Due to the rapid growth in the global population, the worldwide need for food has escalated dramatically. As per the Global Report on Food Crisis 2022 Mid-year Update, 205 million people are anticipated to suffer from acute food insecurity and will require urgent assistance across 45 countries. With the growing burden on agricultural production to serve an ever-increasing population and eliminate food insecurity, farmers and growers are seeking effective aids such as copper fungicides to prevent the outbreak of fungal diseases and loss of crops.
Global agencies are scaling up efforts to enhance agricultural output and secure the food supply chain, complementing industry growth. In April 2022, the World Bank earmarked USD 30 billion worth of investments over a period of 15 months to reduce risks, enhance food & nutrition security, and build robust food systems. Similar initiatives supporting producers and consumers worldwide will further encourage large-scale manufacturing of copper fungicides for use in agricultural and food production.

The availability of several alternative disease management methods is expected to be a major roadblock in the copper fungicides market growth. Over the past few years, various cultural practices, biological controls, and genetic resistance techniques have been developed to prevent disease outbreaks among crops, competing with copper fungicides. However, ongoing breakthroughs in biofungicides and a growing emphasis on sustainability will improve the uptake of copper-based solutions.
The copper fungicides market revenue from copper oxychloride is estimated to reach over USD 180 million by 2032. The growing demand for copper oxychloride across agriculture for bactericidal and fungicidal applications can be credited to the increasing awareness of eco-friendly crop protection methods, and the rapid adoption of sustainable farming practices. Copper oxychloride offers a myriad of benefits such as broad-spectrum protection against fungal outbreaks due to a lower risk of resistance development. It is also considered a suitable fungicide for various ornamental flowers, shrubs, fruits, and vegetables, which may contribute to product consumption.
Copper fungicides market valuation from fruits & vegetables applications is set to surpass USD 430 million by 2032. Copper fungicides have emerged as a promising disease control in fruit and vegetable farming as they have minimal impact on health and the environment. They are prominently used in form of sprays to control both bacterial and fungal diseases in plants. Spraying fruit trees and berries with copper fungicides helps reduce scabs, bacterial blights, leaf & cane spots, and mildew. The increasing demand for organic fruits & vegetables and the rising burden on growers will boost the demand for copper fungicides.
