At 4.1% CAGR, the South & Central America Natural Surfactants Market is projected to be worth US$ 771.61 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights   

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the South & Central America natural surfactants market was valued at US$ 606.85 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 771.61 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 4.1% from 2022 to 2028. Increasing usage of natural surfactants in crop protection and ramping demand for detergents in household application.                

The increasing popularity of bio-based crop protection chemicals is one of the major factors positively impacting the use of natural surfactants in crop protection. Crop protection chemicals give farmers an affordable solution to improve crop production and quality. They also make harvesting easier and support dependable yields from year to year. In agriculture, natural surfactant helps reduce surface tension so that liquid can penetrate the surface better. Moreover, adding natural surfactants to crop formulations improves efficiency and helps save water used for irrigation and help in reduction of runoff water. The selection of natural surfactants for agrochemical formulations is important, depending on their application. Different natural surfactants can be used as wetting agents, dispersants, or emulsifiers. In the case of wetting agents, these natural surfactants serve primarily as co-adjuvants in the application of various crop treatments, while dispersants and emulsifiers are typically used to give stability to the formulations of agricultural inputs. The most important aspect of natural surfactants in crop protection is their capacity to reduce the rates of all input use, as they optimize the activity by flattening out water droplets and dispersing the product over the leaf's surface, achieving better surface contact, enhanced absorption, and better results. Good agricultural practices require using natural surfactants to improve the efficiency and performance of plant protection treatments.
